Love the ideas for school paper storage and saving it long term!!! I need to get in gear on this! I usually have a "place" for papers I save - and I do go through it - once when I unload from backpack and then the whole pile again at the end of the year.
I have a big long box upstairs that I transfer the things I can't let go of. The big crazy art projects, cute things he's written, etc.
I love the idea of taking a picture of them with their artwork - that is an excellent idea!
You ladies are inspiring me!!!
This weekend I tackled my makeup drawer - why do I keep tons of empty makeup containers???? Why??? It's like I just can't let go in case --- what??? lol Pitched them! Wiped everything down and organized - SO much better now!
Also went through an overflowing tote I've been keeping in the pantry of cookie cutters. My MIL gave me some more - so after washing those I pulled everything out and sorted by type, put in ziplock bags and brought down a BIG tote from upstairs that I washed out and used to corral everything. Tote went back upstairs so it's not taking up room in the pantry all the time!!!
And guess what? There's room in the tote!!! So I must need more cookie cutters!!!
