Back to School Suitcase

August 7, 2014
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?

    This is really cute idea. Been stocking on school supplies like Jubi is in school. You can’t be .25 markers, crayons and more.

    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.

    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!
