Make Do Monday with Shari:
Here is a mess of little items in a sewing kit. A really cheap one, but one that would help out in a bind. I decided to put it in a plastic bag to keep everything together. But I didn't like the look of it.
So I found an empty pill bottle and cleaned it well, to get any drug residue removed.
Then I put all the little odds and ends into the bottle. Look how nice the bottle contains the odds and ends.
I thought if I put it back in the plastic bag, I could put a couple of material swatches in it that could be used as patches or whatever.
This was Easy-Peasy and a good organizational thing for me.
I know what you are thinking- Shari needs to organize her kitchen counter. You would be right............. but that is for later...... I will do it this afternoon or tomorrow after school.... or when I find some extra time............ For sure before Christmas..............
Have a wonderful day!!!!............

What a great way to store a sewing kit and would be really handy for travelling too. I look forward to any advice you have on organizing kitchen counters (I could do with some tips!).
ReplyDeleteHi :-D Two different times today i tried to leave a comment on your posting, and yet was unable to. However, the second time I attempted to, somebody else HAD left a comment even though it wouldn't let me .... I'm confused.
ReplyDeleteAnyways, I had attempted to tell you that I found it quite funny that both of us did postings today having to do with used perscription bottles! God's timing can be so humerous!!!
A tip for kitchen counters - multiple crocks and clear glass containers, combined with putting things back away as you go. Sounds simple. Trust me, it's N-O-T!!! But occasionally my counters look amazing ;-p
