The Secret Hidden in my Underwear Drawer
It is time to reveal a big secret. I am actually quite embarrassed about this. But here it goes…
Yes, I use empty tissue boxes to organize my socks and other unmentionables. I am not sure whether I am more embarrassed about the fact that I save empty tissue boxes, the fact that I can hardly bring myself to buy tissue unless the box is aesthetically pleasing to me, or that I compulsively sort things by shape and color. But really, this comes in very handy. It’s free, unless you never buy tissue and have to start. And, I never have to rummage around looking for something just to find out that I have run out. I always know when I am running low.
I also wanted to make sure no one missed any of the great ideas in the comments. Mirre sent links to the pocket tidies she made last year. They remind me of the wall pockets I keep seeing all over blog land, but hers are much more colorful! Definitely, more my style! And they can be tied to the back of a chair or on a changing table, or wherever you need extra storage. Lauri mentioned using empty Crystal Light containers to hold pens, pencils, paintbrushes… you name it! Decorate these babies up with paper and ribbon and your in business. And she also says they make an easy kids craft if your looking for a gift the kids can make for someone special in their lives. Perry suggested using old test tubes (cleaned of course), man I would be in heaven if I could get my hands on something like that. Actually, I discovered after a quick internet search that you can buy them at pretty reasonable prices… hmmm… my beads might need a new home! And everyone loves mason jars! All the great ideas are making me feel like I should dig a few more out of the basement.
