I often find that the best ideas are the simplest, most why-didn't-I-think-of-that moments of brilliance. Those
but of course lightning bolts that happen when you least expect it - like in the shower, or just as you're falling asleep. My most compelling thesis arguments always happened mid-shower (quite inconvenient really, when you need to write them down on a piece of paper before you forget). But anyhoo, this is one of those ideas.
This idea comes courtesy of the oh so talented Mackenzie Horan of
Design Darling, who decided to start filing her clutches the way she sorts her mail: in an acrylic letter sorter. If you're thinking "but my clutches don't stand up by themselves" then Mackenzie's got you covered, just slip a piece of cardboard into each clutch so that they hold their shape. (This is probably better for them anyway). I actually use this same method to make my tall boots stand up when I display them.
She found the letter sorter at
The Container Store. I think I could actually use one on my desk at work. The best part about this DIY, is that I'm now feeling super inspired to find simple, pretty ways to organize the rest of my home and workspace. What else could you display in a letter sorter? Pretty file folders? Wallets? Lipsticks? I hope this DIY has inspired you to organize one spot in your home or workspace too.
And if y'all haven't visited
Mackenzie's boutique yet, go now! It's just darling. xo Cristina
