Organizing Holiday Craft Supplies with Hefty®

Decluttering and organizing is something I have been doing a lot of lately. With the holidays on their way, I know that I feel better when I have planned and prepared for the season. While not everything can be planned ahead of time, it really helps my sanity when I have things organized. I have been in holiday crafts mode and I thought I would share my tips for organizing holiday craft supplies with Hefty® Slider Bags.

I wanted to share some ways that I keep my holiday craft items sorted and organized with these cool slider bags from Hefty®.

 

Here are several ideas to make the most of small spaces for storage.

First of all, I love that they are clear so that I can see exactly what is in them. I have my supplies sorted by type so that I can just grab what I need for the craft project. The Hefty® Slider Bags are strong, you can hear them zip close and the strong MaxLock® track design prevents them from opening up and spilling open.

These also help me make the most of my space. I do not have a large craft room or even a designated closet. I have some photo boxes that I use to keep similar supplies together.

For example, here you will see decorative scissors, rhinestones, adhesive,  Christmas decorations, washi tape and marker sets all in their own Hefty® Slider Bags.

Organizing holiday craft supplies is easy with the help of these baggies. They stay organized and maximize small spaces.

By storing my supplies in these bags, all of these items now fit side by side in a photo box, just like this.

All of those items are in there and the box still has room because I have maximized the space! It is barely half full. Talk about organizing small spaces! I can grab what I need and go and I do not have to worry about stuff falling out because they are super strong and sturdy thanks to the MaxLock® track design!

Hefty® Slider Bags are available in quart and gallon bag sizes. Just look for the bright Orange boxes. I found mine at Walmart. Check the pricing as Hefty® Slider Bags cost less than Ziploc® Slider Bags, when comparing the same type of bag (freezer/storage) and size (quart/gallon) of the closest price point.

I must say that I use these bags for many other organizing solutions including:

  • vacation souvenirs, ticket stubs and mementos
  • game pieces
  • clothing when traveling
  • medications
  • cords and earphones (seriously the best way to travel)
  • planner accessories
  • oh and food items too!

I store them near the kitchen counter stove area since this is the place I store leftovers. If you are looking here is a way to save $1 on a package at Walmart.

Hi, I'm Raquel! I am a self-proclaimed foodie and have enjoyed cooking and baking since I was little. I loved baking cookies with my mother and grandma as a child, and later making dinners for my parents to foster my passion while in high school. I also had a passion for organizing and keeping things tidy.
