Organizing At Michael’s

I don’t get a chance to go to Michael’s Stores that often, but when I do I’m always surprised at what they have in store!  It’s always changing and, you can usually find a good coupon for what you want to buy.  Here are some awesome finds I recently saw on a trip to a Michael’s in Attleboro, Mass.

Top Row-

Left-This chalkboard and basket system is perfect for an entryway or kitchen.  Manage to do lists and mail all in one spot.  And it’s cute!  It was $9.99.

Middle-There’s nothing special about this notepad, except that it’s adorable, uniquely shaped and was only $2.

Right-Chalkboard labels are so popular right now and so useful!  This was a whole set for under $3!  That’s a steal!

Middle-

Left-These colored mason jars would be a great way to organize arts and crafts supplies or items in your kitchen, by the phone.  Cute enough to look at but functional enough to organize lots of things.

Right-This was one of the more expensive items I found, but I loved the way the drawers could hide anything you wanted.  I like the idea of using this in small spaces where you can’t have a whole piece of furniture, like an entryway or hallway.

Bottom-

Left-These are french fry containers.  I found them in the seasonal gift section and I fell in love.  AWESOME for scooping up small toys, art supplies and even snacks.  I bought a pack so you’ll be seeing more of these for sure!

Middle-These little tins were $1.50 a piece.  Use them for medications, beads, jewelry (perfect for traveling), buttons and other small items that never seem to stay together.  You could even make your own spice rack out of them!  Put velcro on the bottom and you’re ready to create a whole system for next to nothing!

Right-These nesting boxes were made if burlap.  I loved how unique they were and you got five boxes for about $10!
