I Made It!






I hate digging through my desk drawers or in several different cabinets before finding needed supplies. I saw Erin's post on I'm Lovin Lit and decided I needed one of these. I did take her advice and purchased the toolkit labels from This Little Piggy Reads on TpT. Then it was off to Lowe's to purchase the Stack-On 22 Drawer Storage Cabinet. My son, Jack, who is "fine-tuning" his driving skills in order to get his license soon, drove me! Then it was back home for printing, laminating, and assembly. I am so excited about how it turned out and am very excited to put it to good use in my classroom. I'm just saying...

    1. Hi!
      I love how my toolbox turned out. Thanks so much for the tips. I woke up this morning and most of the labels had fallen into the drawers. I ended up using spray adhesive on the front of each label and so far they have not moved! Thanks again.

  3. Wow, it turned out cute! I made those to match the labels of a classroom decor I made for a friend. I thought it turned out cute. Did it fit well enough for you? Do I need to adjust the labels??

    1. Your labels fit perfectly! I am using chevrons and dots in my classroom this year so the design is awesome! I ended up spraying the laminated front of each label with spray adhesive to get them to stay in place. It looks great and I am very excited that I actually did it! Thanks so much for coming up with the labels. It made it so easy.
