Use Cat Treat Containers For Organizing Craft Supplies

I believe in recycling everything, To organize all my flowers for my scrapbooking, I use my cat's Pounce Cat Treat bottles and put each color of flower in their own bottle. I have a nice shelf unit I got free from a neighbor that they fit in just right. I also use shoe boxes to store small craft supplies and label them and keep them in a closet in my craft room. Another use for the pounce containers are for small things like brads, eyelets, etc.

I also use tins to store buttons and other sewing notions and I use old fashion glass mason jars to store my ribbons in. I keep in my sewing room in photo boxes that are the decorated ones, all my DVD and VHS tapes so they are not just laying in piles in my room and the boxes look great. I use a lot of 8.5 x 11 paper and cardstock, so I have one 2 draw file cabinet for the paper and one for the cardstock and they fit right under the counter top my husband and I built in my craft room. I also took on top top of a dresser two thin tower shelving units and put them on their side and now I have more room in my craft room and still have the shelving to store my scrapbooking supplies and craft books. I also use decorative tins shaped like little building to store things like paperclips, thumbtacs, rubberbands.
