Brewing...a Mom Box

I Hoard magazines!
I admit it.
I have done this from the time I opened my first TEEN magazine.
All the glossy pages .. All the fun trends..All the makeup ideas..
How could I just pitch all that in the trash!
I know I can't keep doing this!.
It just doesn't work with my new
CLEAN . Simple . Clutter free . ORGANIZED
2010 lifestyle!
"SEW"
resolution ONE
Create a BOX..
just for ME!
(Using cute little dividers from Hobby Lobby)
Mom's Box:
A special place..
to drop DREAMS and Magazine must haves.
My Box has:
INSPIRATION . Dream Home ideas . Recipes . Beauty . Thank You cards . Addresses . Health ...and a few others.
Possibilities are endless!

What's in Your file Box?

I used to love teen magazine!

Oh, and Seventeen....brings back memories.

I like your box idea. I may pass this along to my mom. She is the magazine queen (junkie) and she would probably need a ton of these boxes.

NO JOKE! She could have purchased a new vehicle with all the $$ she dropped on magazines.

Buffy, stop it! You are too clever! It's killing me! HA! Love it! I am making a Mom Box this week to match my bedroom so I can put it beside my bed! I just chunked a HUGE bag of mags yesterday! They were everywhere! I will start fresh with my "Mom Box" and start pulling my fav pages out for my box! WOOHOO! Love it!

I have the EXACT same problem!! I had to finally sort through them so I clipped what I wanted and put them in a binder. Not as snazy of course as your but I think that time is up again.. So sad.. =(

I have several Mom boxes, well folders actually. At the beginning of every new year, I go thru all the magazines from the year and tear out pages or ideas I want to keep. So, I've got bunches of folders for crafts, etc. I don't throw away "Create and Decorate" magazines though.
