Arts & Crafts—

Stackable Drawers

 

The idea of doing arts and crafts is to enjoy the process and encourage creativity—not to get frustrated looking for things.  Craft supplies come in all shapes, sizes and colors.  But when you put them all together in a box or container, they can be a bit overwhelming for children as well as adults.  When there is so much for your eyes to decipher, it’s difficult to know what you actually have, where to find things, and where to put them back.  And when in a hurry, they tend to get dropped in a pile or stuffed in a container.

 

There are two ways of dealing with this—first, taking all crafts out of boxes and placing them in stackable drawers means a child can pull them out, take them to a table, then place everything inside again and back on the shelf.  The second important thing is categorizing and labeling.  EasyLabels minimize excessive color and clutter while focusing your child’s attention on categories—what’s inside—which makes things always simple to find.  Easy to remove vinyl drawers keep everything contained, eliminate distracting shapes, and provide an overall serene, organized look.

Translucent stackable drawers / Container Store Sweater Box

 

“Both of these are great for storing children’s crafts and toys.  Placing containers on shelves without lids lets a child access and place back craft items by category—quickly and easily.  Even for adults, EasyLabels make clean up incredibly fast!”
