HI Everyone,
Welcome to my Blog & thank you for stopping by! I did promise more Craft Room storage & today that is what i have! I am so proud of this & it turned out so much better than i thought it would. Its so strong & will happily hold quite a bit of A4 card stock. Of course you don't have to keep Card stock in it, you may want to keep your Craft magazines in it or maybe even your card scraps. The choice is yours.
Very professional looking, even inside. |
Decorate your file box anyway you choose! |
I even added a beautiful fabric bow |
You could add charms like i did. |
Extra decoration added on the front makes it look so pretty. |
You will be amazed how strong this is & also how simple it is to make. As long as you have some good Chipboard/Greyboard it will be super simple & it will look amazing! How pretty would it look if you had a few of these sitting together in your craft space?? I no for a fact i will be making a few more of these. Last year i bought 2 boring white ones & they have gone in the bin since i made this.

This is fabulous Ann and just what I've been looking for to keep both my scraps and also craft magazines in. I've got a shop bought one in my living room that I've had for years to keep my diary, my kindle and other bits and bobs in but I definitely need some extra ones for the craft room and also one for the kitchen for recipes etc Thank you for taking the time in doing this for us xx
ReplyDeleteYou are so welcome Jane, thank you for taking the time to pop over and leave a comment. It means a lot to me to no people like what i make and want to make it themselves. I will be making a couple more. Its so strong, i am even shocked lol xx
DeleteOh goodness, what a wonderful box for magazines and or cardstock. Right now I'm using boxes from the Post Office and have cut them like this one, but have not embellished them. This is so much stronger and just may give this one a go and will so much better looking on my shelf. Thank you for sharing Ann......
ReplyDeleteAnne, I really love this magazine file folder. I am current organizing my craft room and this is perfect. I am loving your storage series. Thank you so much for sharing these storage solutions with us!
