New ideas for a tidy craft room

I was trying to tidy up a wee bit in my craft room the other morning and for the hundreth time my glue bottles/tubs toppled over ( I used to keep them altogether on a little tray) In that instant I decided I had to stop what I was doing and come up with a more practical solution. I dug out some beer mat coasters, covered them with our beautiful SU designer papers, punched holes and made a desk tidy...................and within the hour I had a really sturdy new desk container in which I fitted ALL the items perfectly.
As soon as my class ladies saw it they decided they would like to make one too so that is one of the items we shall be creating in my next class which is 17th September.


After creating this first basic one I decided to go a step further and make one with an added memo sheet holder for my desk area as I am always hunting around for a snippit of paper. So now I have my own bespoke desk tidy complete with a stash of 4x4 memo sheets. I do have a few pens and pencils in it but as you can see it is mainly for all my Stampin'Up glues, tools etc.....all those things that I reach for EVERY day when I am crafting.
