Made from my scraps of fabric |
Then I thought, why not use the boxes made of fabric to store my bits and pieces of scrap so that they would be easier to find. I had already arranged these scraps in plastic zip bags but still they were not that easy to locate. So I made more boxes and decided a larger size might be better suited to this project. I kept on making more fabric boxes until all my scraps were organized and easily found. Now I can easily find all my scraps arranged in Boxes by color.Smaller box with Blue Scraps. |

I love your fabric boxes! Is there a tutorial available?
ReplyDeletewonderful idea - I will have to look back some post and see how you made them

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful idea! It's marvellous because not only have you got scraps organized, you've got them organized in a pretty container that makes it so enjoyable to look through and use your scraps
