If you have a cricut you can cut out the letters in vinyl and stick it to the glass or use the negative portion of the vinyl and use etching cream to etch the letters onto the glass.Reeniemay69https://www.blogger.com/profile/10696159091649846626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4934312058294071392.post-87061408840729584392009-06-27T16:49:13.666-05:002009-06-27T16:49:13.666-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Reeniemay69https://www.blogger.com/profile/10696159091649846626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4934312058294071392.post-19725031663585257902009-06-26T17:37:28.987-05:002009-06-26T17:37:28.987-05:00Don't count this when you "choose".....Don't count this when you "choose"...

I got super lucky yesterday and found awsome little metal cans that hold about 4 cups of "stuff". I bought 10 of them and now have to fill them up. Also- at JoAnnes, I got some great little "boxes" with individual spaces for brads, etc. I don't know how to describe them, other than they're seperated into 6 compartments, with a snap lid. Then, there's a carrying case that 4 of the boxes fit into. Great space saver and easy to grab for crops.<br /><br />Your new room looks great! Keep the videos coming, I love them. Thanks for the candy too... you rock!missychanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02718473915387023486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4934312058294071392.post-84952852571039795572009-06-24T12:36:58.877-05:002009-06-24T12:36:58.877-05:00I work somewhere that occasionally throws out thos...I work somewhere that occasionally throws out those little favor tins like you see in Michaels- intended for wedding favors and such. I've started snagging them before they hit the garbage and I'm going to glue magnets to the back, get a small sheet of metal, and make myself an organizing rack for brads, eyelets, silk flowers, cut letters, etc. Saves me from buying one (they definitely cost more than the sum of their parts) and it keeps them out of the landfill.jengdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04064793846090642980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4934312058294071392.post-82708615912867384882009-06-23T16:19:56.031-05:002009-06-23T16:19:56.031-05:00Love this idea.

My tip is to try and find things around the house that would be helpful in the scraproom.

I think it's a really neat idea. It would work great for skittles and buttons as well. I need all the tips I can get about organizing. I don't have a scraproom so I went to W and bought a 7 drawer rolling cart to organize all my nick nacks. It's been working great. Thanks for a chance at winning some flowers. I could really use some.

I am currently trying to get all my mounted stamps unmounted and then I will store them in CD cases this will save me so much room and I think make it easier for me to find my stamps and hopefully use them more. Thanks again.

The grandkids love to sort them for me. I do use a lot of flowers and usually store them in the small zipper bags that curtains come in. I tend to buy the white flowers and then use my Copics to color them the color that I need and decorate with stickles or other glitter.Loishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11994569852357731051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4934312058294071392.post-73160669775019087132009-06-23T09:42:32.824-05:002009-06-23T09:42:32.824-05:00Great idea!

I then number the photocopy and the cd case with the same number. File the copy in a 3 ring binder in numerical order, then file the cd in a cd file box. So, when I want to find a stamp, I look through my book, choose the number and go get it out of the cd file box. Easy Peasy. I had sooooo many sets, that I had to do something or I never would have found what I wanted.<br /><br />CarolCarol's Craftshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02909419986763832923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4934312058294071392.post-72537957872519496872009-06-23T09:10:00.970-05:002009-06-23T09:10:00.970-05:00I may have to start drinking these or nab them fro...I may have to start drinking these or nab them from friends who drink this.

And to even pick out what you intend to use right away and put it on your desk in a bin or holder of some kind.
