DIY: Teacher Supplies Organization

Need a cute and organized way to store your teacher and/or classroom supplies?
Check out this easy and inexpensive way to do it!


Items Needed:
"Stack On" 18 Drawer Storage Cabinet 
(I got mine at Lowes for about $20!)
Labels 
(The ones I used were a free download on Teachers Pay Teachers!)
Scissors
Scotch Tape
Sharpie

Instructions:
1. After purchasing the storage cabinet, I printed the labels on regular computer paper. (Link to labels here!)
2. Since the labels I chose to use were a little too big for the drawers, I cut them to fit better.
3. Then, I wrote the name of the supplies I stored on each label with a black Sharpie pen.
4. I placed a label on each drawer with 2 pieces of Scotch tape. That way, I can easily remove it and replace with another label if I choose to store something else in the future.






Happy organizing!

Warmly,
Alexandra
