Make your clutter look cute by getting these Lid storage boxes!

I got mines from Michaels and they are so cute. Theres so many different designs available you can find to match your aesthetic. We all have things that we just don’t know a spot for and tend to stick anywhere. Boxes like these are perfect for that!

What I use my boxes for:

I have 4 total at this time and this is what I use them for…

- A box for Magnets from my travels 🧲 ✈️

- A for sewing things with all my threads and extra fabric ✂️ 🧵 🪡

- A box for my scrapbooks and cards from friends & family ✉️ 🎁

- A box for my degrees and tokens from high school and college 👩‍🎓

COMMENT BELOW WHAT YOU WOULD PUT IN YOUR BOX👀🥰 or what do you use for storage for the little things? I would love to hear from you!

Follow me to get to know me and more recs 🥰

... Read moreSo many of you asked where else to find these amazing storage boxes! While Michaels is my go-to for cute designs, I've also found fantastic options at Target, HomeGoods, and even online marketplaces like Amazon or Etsy. For a budget-friendly option, check out discount stores like TJ Maxx or Marshalls – you might be surprised by the gems you find tucked away! The key is to look for sturdy materials and, of course, a design that sparks joy and fits your aesthetic. Don't be afraid to mix and match a little to create a truly personalized organizational system. Beyond the items I mentioned, these boxes are truly versatile. I've seen friends use them for kids' craft supplies (think tiny beads, pipe cleaners!), makeup overflow that used to clutter bathroom counters, charging cables that always seem to be tangled, or even seasonal decor items that need a designated spot. One brilliant idea I picked up was to dedicate a box to 'important documents' – things like warranties, manuals for appliances, or even tax receipts that you don't need daily but want to keep safe and accessible. It really helps to make your life easier when you know exactly where those things are, instead of frantically searching when you need them most! When you're picking out your boxes, think about what you'll put inside. Do you need a clear lid so you can easily see the contents, or a solid one for a cleaner, more uniform look? Consider the size too – sometimes a few smaller boxes work better than one large one for different categories, helping you micro-organize. And here's a pro-tip: LABEL EVERYTHING! Seriously, even if you think you'll remember what's in each box, a quick label (or even a cute tag) makes finding things a breeze, especially for items you don't access daily, like those sentimental travel magnets or extra stationery supplies. It saves so much time and frustration down the line. Getting organized is one thing, but staying organized is often the real challenge, right? My trick is a quick 'reset' once a week. Spend just 10-15 minutes putting things back where they belong. If a box starts overflowing, it's a sign to either do a quick declutter of its contents or consider if you need another one. It's a continuous process, but having these designated spots makes it so much less daunting. Imagine how much calmer your space will feel when everything has a 'home.' It’s a small change that makes a huge difference in daily life and mental clarity! Speaking of organization, for all my fellow stationery lovers out there, these boxes are a dream! Imagine having a dedicated box for your favorite pens, specialty papers, stamps, stickers, or even your journaling supplies. No more rummaging through drawers! Having your must-have stationery neatly stored and easily accessible truly makes creative projects more enjoyable and less stressful. It's all about making your routine smoother and your environment more inspiring.
