Hot Tip With A Cool Solution For Bothersome Bulletin Board Borders!

Are you constantly losing those little end pieces that you need to complete a bulletin board?

I used to too, and then I came up with round storage tubs and LOVE them!

Two large tubs solved my problem.  They stack on top of each other, so things are neat and conveniently organized and consolidated in one place.

I organize my borders by season, and simply twirl them inside the tub.

When I’m done with that seasonal border,  it goes on the INSIDE.  The one I will use next, is on the OUTSIDE of the ringed bunch.

This rotation system keeps me from having to search for a particular border.

I snip off an end of each border and tape it to the inside of the top of the lid, so I can see at a glance what I have in the tub.

ANOTHER Hot Tip:

If I decide not to use a border anymore, I remove the picture label from the top.

If the label has a blank section on it that I can write on, I’ll snip the border into pieces and write upper and lowercase letters on them, or numbers, and turn them into Memory Match Concentration games.

They make cute cubby labels, or name tags too.

Thanks for visiting today.  I hope you are having a wonderful school year!

    Hi! I downloaded the pdf of "Hot Tips for Storing Borders." What a brilliant idea! But the last page with your description is so small that it is hard for me to read. I took a snapshot and then made it bigger but it makes it really blurry. Can you help? Thanks for your great blog!
