Before putting all the papers used for holiday gifts & such I gathered all scraps, and Mish-style assembled them quickly into tags. Adhered each layer with a smidge of 2-way glue and allowed to dry, then machine-stitched down the center of all layers chain-piecing style.
I'll put the holiday stuff away now...lol.
I posted this on Ranger's Facebook wall today - Ranger's is looking for organizational ideas for their products, and I had this created by a local woodworker/artisan to easily access each Distress ink pad, blending tool and reinker. If I like a product I'll naturally want to use it frequently, so speed in access and visibility is important to me.
Happy Friday & best wishes for a great weekend!
Cool cool and more cool. I love how your stamp pads are organized.

Love that organization with the ink pads, etc. And I love your tags! I think Oct. Afternoon not getting that holiday line out rather late makes us want to play with it past the holidays! Which is not a bad thing.

What a GREAT inkpad organizer! Every time I "need" more distress ink colors, I have to rethink my pad storage. Hmm, maybe Mr Wonderful needs a nice woodworking project, especially with my birthday looming on the horizon... Thanks for sharing and Happy, Creative New Year!

Love your tags- and I learned a new term: chain-piecing! :)
Your organization is AMAZING! I love the access & visability! Always such a challenge with ink pads, I think! Maybe your local woodworking friend will get a Ranger contract! :)

You know I love those tags, butterfly heaven. Love the ink station. I assume it was made by the wonderful Bob.

Love the Ranger ink organizer - Ranger should strike a deal with your local woodworker to make them for them to sell.
