Storing Wrapping Paper With Elastic Bands
I found a real neat way to keep your wrapping paper from unraveling, without tearing or spoiling your paper. Use a coated elastic band used to hold ponytails.

Reuse Earplug Cases For Storage
I have used the waxy earplugs to help me sleep for a while. I love the containers, and use them for all kinds of things. I have a nice new deck of cards in one, my business cards in another, a mini sewing kit in another (in fact, the dollar trees' have mini sewing kits in them already), mini first-aid kit, craft items, and soooooooo much more! Enjoy!

Shadow-Box Coffee Tables
Shadow-box coffee tables are a great addition to any family room and are fairly cheap to purchase (even cheaper to make yourself). I like to display heirlooms such as our family bible, antique jewelry, old books, etc., which can be changed with the seasons. The Bible is too fragile for daily use but is a really special conversation piece whenever we have company.

Organize Notes Into Sections Of A Spiral Notebook
Im not sure about you, but regardless of the fact that I'm very organized, I still used to find little pieces of paper everywhere with little notes, lists, etc. Here is what I did. I took your regular spiral notebook (a big one) and got some of those sticky labels that you can just stick on a page.

Time For Spring Cleaning
By Kelly Ann Butterbaugh
Spring is here and it's time for spring cleaning. Nature does it with spring storms that clear dead branches, and her animals clear their winter bedding from their dens as the days get longer.

Address Book for Internet Information
I don't know if anyone has ever submitted this idea, but I'd like to share something I do. I bought an inexpensive address book (from a dollar store). I started using it for websites or internet use. The alphabetical order is very helpful.

Stacking Wire Shelves Make Great Space Savers
I live in super-tight quarters, so I'm always looking for "space saving" ideas! To add extra shelf space to your kitchen cupboards, spend $3.99 and buy several of those 5 inch high stacking wire shelves at your local variety, liquidation or discount store.

Hide Emergency Cash in a Lipstick Container
A good place to hide extra cash is in an empty lipstick container and then just toss in with odds and ins and only you will know it's there.
