Foundation Organizing System

Easy to find Foundation System

If you storage your foundation in a drawer or box like me, you probably need to take every bottle out so you can find the one you want or... Use this simple system to find the color from the cap. The color might slightly change because of the texture of the sticker, but you will know very easily which color you need. Let me know how it goes!

Apply a small amount of foundation on sticker

Rub it and let it dry

Adhere to your foundation cap

Now you can find your foundation when stacked vertically.

Embroidery Floss Organizing Update

After a few days I finally get my threads organized. I have "cheap" thread (no brand at all) that I use for small projects or for household needs. Then I have DMC and Omega threads. I had too much of those, so I had to separated them in two boxes. One with reds and pinks (I don't know why I have a lot of these colors) and the rest of the colors. Check how to do this clicking here!

My threads organized!

I wrote down the code on one side of the chipboard. This way I know what color I was using. I also write DMC XXX or OM XXX. Both brands are in the same box. Show me yours! Remember to subscribe or comment if you know another way of organizing floss.

Organized by colors and type. I have "cheap" thread and DMC and Omega

Cheap ones fit in one case.

DMC and Omega were separated in 2 boxes by color. You can see OM code

Organizing Stamps

Original Design Mini Stamp Series - Forrest Wonderland Series
As you know, I posted a few days ago about this stamps. Well my husband asked me, How do you remember all the stamps you have? In my head I said: I would never forget! but, let's get real, I have a happy and sad face (that's pretty easy to remember) but I have 3 leafs... hmmm maybe I might forget about one of the leafs, and two size of stars in different sets! So I decided to make a journal or something like that where I can stamp all my mini stamps and keep them organized. For now I'm using old white envelope to store my stamps, but I grab an amazing idea from Sew Many Ways. I will show it to you here. The plastic containers are so obvious! I don't have space for a metallic "mirror" but I do have space in my drawers =)
And I'm sure that with permanent ink like memento or staz-on  you might stamp the plastic container all around!!! yay!!! I'll try it as soon as I purchase the containers. (these are small plastic cups like the ones you get for soy sauce on take out)



Stamp all your stamps on a sheet with the title and how many stamps are
Storage in envelopes, plastic containers or whatever you want.

Attach the proof to your stamps.
Since I don't have too many stamps yet, I have a small cardboard box where you can perfectly fit a 3 by 5" note card. So I'm arranging them this way, and because of the pin at the bottom is easy to pick them up!

Let me know your ideas! Please follow to be up to date on tutorials, organization ideas and more.
