The thing I like most about this list is that most of the supplies are things you would have around the house. Many organization ideas would make you go broke with all the little containers and baskets you need to buy.

Cupcake papers in a Mason jar– genius!!! They drive me crazy, it’s hard to keep them organized in my pantry.
Not to be a Negative Nellie, but making organizing containers out of cardboard is not a good idea long term. Cardboard decomposes and has an awful grungy smell and if you live where there are cockroaches you’ll know that decaying cardboard attracts them in droves. (I used to live in Texas 🙂
Thanks for all the great organizing ideas– there’s something about taking down all the Christmas decorations that makes me want to refresh & improve the house!
Katie says
Thanks for the comment and the heads up on the cardboard! Always good to learn new things!

if you have a smart phone, there is an app called zip loop that will keep all your discounts cards so all you have to do is show your card on your phone. Much handier than carrying all your cards

I use old Pringles tubes to store cupcake papers (the smaller ones), works perfectly! And if you want to see how many are left, just cut out a small “window” along the tube 🙂
Terry says
I liked the ribbon & craft stick idea, but FYI the link does not work! First I got an error, then It brought me to some page telling me to update something. Thought you should know.
Katie says
Thanks so much! I’m going to look into it.
