Back to School Suitcase

Now is the perfect time to stock up on school supplies for both school and home because there are so many deals.  I try to keep a few boxes of crayons on deck for when Peyton’s stash is depleted because of Mister and I stepping on them all the time.  Crayons, papers and coloring books are everywhere in our house.   Peyton has a desk but her drawing and coloring take place everywhere else.   In an attempt to decrease the mess, I put together this little back to school suitcase to keep all her items.

I figure she can move about the house with her suitcase and close it up to use the top for a surface to draw and write.  I’m sure more items will be added to the box. I did not include scissors because Peyton might decide she wants to do the big chop on her hair.  We'll see how long it takes before I have to replenish.  How do you keep your child's supplies organized?

  5. I keep all of the crayons and stuff downstairs. I do keep a few crayons and things in a ziploc bag in the kitchen. While these things are on sale I think I'll pick one up and do the same thing so she doesn't have to go dowstairs when she wants to color.

  6. Organized? I am a mess. My two boys are all over the place. My plan is to revamp their room and get it ready for studying so I can keep track of what's going on. I also am putting them in the same class this year, way too hectic having them in two diff classes with two types of work. Love your ides!
