Super-Easy Art Supplies Organization Idea

I recently posted an art supplies Dollar Store Organizational System for people like me who are visual learners and also hassle with ADD.  I am ever so happy with this system; you can check it out here:

And then I came up with another super-easy way to store the pouches filled with my overflowing supply of colored pens and pencils:

I fully intend to use the original Dollar Store idea for–like–the rest of my life, but I also love the idea of keeping my tools super accessible by storing them on a shelf.

I made two purchases on Amazon:

#1– pencil pouches [extra-durable] with mesh windows

#2– a binder with 3-inch rings

In addition to using the rings, the inside pockets are perfect for storing miscellaneous flat items.

Take a look at that–from chaos to order in no time. And the mesh windows still meet the needs of visual processors.

With 3-inch rings, even more than four pouches can fit in the binder.

In addition, I happened to have a couple of sheets of this fun cardstock, and I couldn’t resist dolling up the cover.

As a final creative touch, I added an H–my monogram.

And there you have it–all neat, organized, and ready to grab off the shelf when the creative urge strikes.

Enjoy!
