Organize Drawers With Reused Plastic Packaging

Make Magnetic Information Sheets for Your Fridge
Fantastic idea! I have sheets taped inside my cabinets for things such as the average shelf-life of spices, when to throw out beef, and my favorite 20 beauty tips (medicine cabinet). This would look so much better than tape. I have also seen the magnetic sheets...
