Art Organizer Idea

Moms View Message Board: General Discussion: Archive July 2006: Art Organizer Idea
By Reds9298 on Friday, July 7, 2006 - 09:17 pm:

I needed an easier way of getting art supplies in/out for Natalie that were closer to the art area (the kitchen) and was stumped. Everything was previously in a plastic storage box on one end of the house, and moving it toa front coat closet was going to require some reorganization that I didn't want to get into. I had this *clever* (LOL) idea and it is working GREAT for us. Thought I'd share in case someone else could use it. It's a shoe rack that I bought at Target for $5.99. Natalie also seems to think it's cool and helps me get out the supplies she needs.

Plus, she can't get into them unless I want her to! :)

That's so excellent!

I used to use a shoe organizer on the back of my bathroom door to organize bathroom supplies, like the hair dryer, hair ties, makeup bag, Q-tips, and even my nightgown. But then we remodeled the bathroom and I had room for that stuff elsewhere.

That is a great idea!

What a great idea!

We use one in the playroom for dress up accessories, Polly Pockets and Star Wars figures. Play-doh goes in the top pockets where ONLY an adult can reach. I can't believe how much easier it is to find things when they're stored in this.

What a great idea, I'm going to have to remember that once we get moved!

I use that same item on the bathroom closet door. They are great!

we have one in dd's room for her barbies and little accessories.

Tink and Insaneusmcwife...I've been thinking now of putting one on the back of her door (in the future, the toys are growing and growing) for things like Little People, cars, string beads, etc. Glad to hear those are the kinds of things you use them for. I put one on the back of the door to our office room/scrapbook room, just for scrapbook things that are taking up more and more floor space.

You're right, it is SOOOO much easier to find things!
