I Can’t Believe I’m Sharing This ….

Published by at 10:05 pm under About,Other Than Cards

I was asked on SCS if I had pictures of how I label my sponges, and … you guessed it.  I’m sharing it here just for good measure.   😉   In truth, I’m just grabbing one tissue after another & another, and have been even while we were on vacation.  It’s just not better,  so I’m really just taking it easy here.    (It’s okay … you’re allowed to roll your eyes.  I’ll understand completely.)     And the sponges?  Since I teach stamping, I often have more than one sponge out.  I’ve found that my stampers rarely mix up which sponge goes on which ink pad, since I name the color for my sponges with a Sharpie marker.  The containers are from Hobby Lobby …. and were either $1 or $1.99 each.  There’s room for the matching dauber in each area, and room on the sides for extra sponges, In Colors, etc.  They stack up just great in my cabinet!  So, here’s a peek!    Thanks for stopping by today.  {{{{Hug}}}} someone today ….. it will be good for you and the other person as well!

    Hey sweet TexMama. I never would have thought about writing the names of the colors right on the sponges, but wow! Great idea.

    Thanks for a great idea. I haven’t used sponges like those in my crafting, but I do like to reuse the foam squares for Tim Holtz’ distressing tool. A craft box like that would be much easier than the snack size Ziploc baggies I’m using now.

    OMW – your getting just like the chart whisperer!! Tex, I never thought you could be as organized as Donna!! Boy oh Boy! I’m just never going to catch up to you two !! LOL !!

    OK Bev, I thought I was the only OCD person that did this! I also have a sponge dauber in each slot and have one for all the SU! colors and my distress inks. Whew! I am normal after all!

  9. I have to say, it is a great idea. I am not this organized with my sponge. But it would be lonely in its own container.

    Ha Tex!!! We are sooooo alike!!!

  12. Awesome Bev!!! Thanks so much for sharing this idea. I go through too many and this will help me recycle them and use them over and over again. I’ll be on the look out for some containers – thanks again!
