Kiddy Craft Cabinet

In my quest to achieve maximum organization throughout my home, I recently made-over the craft cabinet. I purchased a few bins from the $$$ store and amazing things happened!  Unfortunately, I forgot to take a before photo. But trust me, things were shoved, crammed, and falling out! Now it it (almost) pure bliss. We are getting a little to big to fit in this little cabinet. 

In this cabinet I keep all of the craft items the children do not need permission (or supervision) to get out. They have free reign here. And they like that. I have put together a list of child friendly items that are perfect for them to get out on a rainy, bored, snowy day. 

• Construction Paper
  
• Paper plates
  
• Dried beans (split peas are my fav. My grandmother always had those for me)
  
• Pipe cleaners
  
• Glue sticks and Elmers glue
  
• Paper lunch bags
  
• Craft kits (martha stewart are good-so are foam craft kits from Michael's)
  
• Clay, plastic knives, toothpicks (i don't leave play-doh in there b/c that need supervision!) :-)
  
• Coloring books, crayons (I just purchased the twist-ups from Crayola-Love em!!!)
  
• Foam stamps and washable markers (Have them rub the stamps with markers instead of ink pads)
  
• Pencils, rulers, erasers, notebook paper
• Stickers, foamies, gems
• Washable water colors, water color paper
• Child friendly scissors
• Tissue paper and crepe paper (great for "stained glass and making flowers)
• Popsicle sticks
• Child's Smock!

I hope this list helps and inspires you to create a cabinet of fun! If you have other items you use please share. And enjoy my "after" photos.

Tomorrow I will be showing you what else I used those photo boxes for. I love it and I am so excited! 

I am In Love with these bins from the $$$ store!
