MB's Treasurista Gettin Organized Challenge



Hello all my crafty friends!!
Welcome to the  
MB's Treasurista Gettin Organized Challenge!

For my organizational challenge, I decided I 
needed a new way to store my ever growing
collection of laces.  I just recently acquired a ton
of vintage laces from a local garage sale and I had 
to incorporate them into my stash.  I decided I would
use a chipboard circle to wrap all the laces individually
and use pins to keep them secure. I had previously used
all clothespins and wanted something different for the flat laces.
I could not use the circles for the ruffled laces, though.

It has taken up so much less space and I am
really happy with the way it turned out!





This is how the white and ivory laces are stored now.

 Here is now how I store the colored laces.

I used the Sizzix Circles #2 die to cut out the chipboard.
I used the largest one and the next largest one depending
 on the width of the lace I was wrapping.



Here is the lineup to check out all the designers 
organizational ideas!!
