Fabric Boxes: Our Storage Solution


Successfully completing an organisation project always makes me happy. Last week I decided our dress up storage wasn't working and I wanted a solution that involved minimising visual 'clutter'.


Therefore it was time to make more fabric boxes, purchasing a few doona cases at garage sales I was began cutting.  Dividing the task over several days, I cut out sufficient material for 16 boxes, yep 16! 


This actually translates to 32 fabric 'crosses', as sewing includes a liner as well as the outer box. 


Then there were also the 32 handles to cut and sew.  Handles are fiddly, always a relief to finish them.  Sewing madly on and off over a week I finally complete my storage solution!:)


Dress ups and toys, looking neat and tidy:) Next task is to create picture labels so the children can easily locate the items they want.

  2. You are unbelievably industrious, Erin. I've been trying to see a hem for about 3 weeks now but can't seem to find the time. Your storage boxes are totally awesome. x
