By Catrina On December 28, 2011 · Leave a Comment

This is such a simple, but very helpful craft to do! We seem to have a HUGE supply of pens, pencils, markers, scissors, and paint brushes in our house. We had them stored in a clear tote box thing and we’d have to dig through everything to find what we were looking for. This was [...]

I thought this was a really great idea, and definitely wanted to do similar [...]
