so, over the holidays, we did a little revamp of our master bedroom closet. this meant we had to move the clothes hamper into the laundry room. not a big deal since it’s right outside our room, but since we were already shifting routine, why not try and put a tad bit more organization to our laundry sorting than what we had?
first up was a trip to the crate & barrel outlet in naperville. (for anyone who’s never had the privledge of going here, you must. like most outlets, you’ll never know what you’ll find, but you can pretty much guarantee that what you do find will be great.) they had some great and decent sized laundry hampers that were perfect for our little laundry space. our entire goal was to be able to separate our three main categories: dry cleaning, towels and regular clothes. so we picked up three hampers and off we went.
then, it happened…during a paper source trip, i came across something i thought might work. they had different sizes of kraft-colored chipboard tags, complete with grommeted holes. i thought i could make these work.
(for some reason, at the time, i only picked up two tags, so i still have to get one more and put it together. now i just need to find the time to get back to naperville and paper source.)






(note: i still need to get myself back to paper source to get my third tag to complete, but you all get the picture. i’m going to finish these off with some brown and grey ribbon, and most importantly, get these attached to the hampers. so we can stop having towels mixed with dry cleaning mixed with workout clothes. because most of you know me, and i don’t do well with chaos…especially with laundry.) 🙂
