Storage Solutions

Last week when we were in Oshawa for ScrapFest, we stopped into an amazing store called Solutions - Your Organized Living Store. Omigosh! It was almost as exciting as going into a scrapbook store! There were all sorts of amazing things - from jars, bins, baskets, shelves, crates, and cubes to all kinds of kitchen gadgets, cleaning products and some home decor items. A very cool store!

Of course, I couldn't go into a place like that and not buy something, so I bought four small jars (I have a special idea for them!) and three acrylic baskets that I knew would be perfect for my scrapbook space.

They have a great flower design, a wire handle (which makes them easy to take from one place to another if necessary) and they are stackable! I like how you can still see through them somewhat and the color (or lack of!) fits in with any decor. One of them now holds my punches, another my adhesive and the third my Stamping Bella stamps. I totally love them and my only regret is that I didn't buy a few more! And since Oshawa is a couple of hours away, I don't think I will be making the trip back to Solutions any time soon.

BUT - I did hear that they are going to be opening up a location in Cambridge this winter! Oh yah! :)
