I purchased several photo boxes at Walmart, that has a label holder on the front. I got them all the same color so they would blend in with my wall color. This organizes my craft supplies. I can replace the paper label and change it anytime. For example: I have labels such as Lace, Ribbon, Tools and Paintbrushes, Project in Process, etc. I know where things are, without looking at clutter.
Recently I've started to spray paint shoe boxes (they are nearly the same size as the photo boxes). I used a glossy spray paint and it's such a close match. An alternative would be covering the shoe boxes with wallpaper, scrapbook paper or decoupage. All of my boxes are on a book shelf, so the look is consistent and uncluttered. Hope this helps someone else. Not the greatest picture, and it's more boxes than books these days.

I love the symmetry of your idea, and the idea of spray painting them! There are so many gorgeous colors of spray paint out there now. I foam stamped some swirls on one plain white box and have received so many compliments on it. More than purchased already designed boxes!
You must love pink! It is supposed to make us happy to look at it!
Thank you!
Great idea. I love the clear dollar tree shoe boxes and use them for my supplies. I can see through them and they stack really nice. I even use them in my freezer!
