organizing

So I thought I'd tackle some corners of the house this weekend that needed a bit of organizing .. and what a better place to start than my case of trims ?
It was looking a bit messy ...



but after a while it was looking like this



and this



Granted, all the trims wouldn't fit into one case anymore so I had to get a second one (from the kid's section at Zara Home, they have such cute stuff. The purple one came from Maize, and I love it)

Now, if I could only organize the stash of fabrics just as neatly ...

I love all the trims, so bright and colorful. The little cases are adorable, I have to agree with Marias23, wish there was a store that sold cute stuff like that here.

Está lindo! As malinhas são lindas, mas tenho que admitir que a minha colecção está tão grande que só numas caixas do IKEA :p

An EXCELLENT idea for storage of trims. I'm going to put this over at whip up. Thanks!

I have a little suitcase exactly like your purple one, only mine is pink. And has dead bumblebees in it, not trims. But excellent idea!

Very nice and cute!

Just a word of warning - if you have used rubber bands to bind your ribbons together, they may melt and fuse with your ribbons. I suggest using cotton tape. My mother's wedding dress had one rubber band which melted and it was a nightmare to remove.

I have just the same little suitcase, also from Zara Home :)
And I also used it to storage my crafting stuff.

I have LOTS of ideas about organzing, but hardly do them.

I really like yours. Pretty ribbons!
