Creative Bulletin Boards

Do you have a million ideas constantly floating in your head? Though it may be hard to pin them down, sticking them on a cork board and securing it with a push pin certainly helps! Give your ideas a home to flourish. We all pride ourselves on having emulate memories but the truth is seeing them come alive brings our concepts to a whole other level.

It’s your craft room so your cork board can be as original as you’d like. Give it a fancy frame to go with your feminine style or use a magnetic board for some modern flair!

Calendar

Your handmade invites for Carrie’s wedding has to be complete by the 6th, and the 4th is John’s piano recital. Oh crap, today your sponsored blog post is supposed to go live! Ditch your mental calendars while your ahead- or behind.

Some dates are engraved in our heads while others become distant memories. When we forget certain events we tend to over commit to other projects and it doesn’t end well. Hang up a calendar where you can’t miss it. Whiteboards tend to be the best as you can erase and add on whenever our ever changing schedules shift.

Your calendar can be as traditional or unconventional as you’d like as long as the dates are there.

File Fabric

Sewers are known to live out of boxes and bags. Organizing fabric like that is bound to get in a disarray. The same way you’d file important documents, file your fabric in drawers or even file folders! Label the top so you know exactly where everything is.
