Stampin Dreams - February Blog Hop

Hey Crafty Friends!  I am so happy to be joining my Crafty Collaborations Group for our February y Stampin Dreams Blog Hop.  The February theme is Reduce, Reuse and  Recycle.  

Welcome to my blog and this inspiring hop!  I am Cathy Peck from Wichita Falls, Texas and I am so happy you are stopping by my blog.  Hope you find some inspiration here. 

Today I am sharing my class tool caddie that I made using chipboard that I saved form Paper Pumpkin Kits and Specialty Paper packs.  I used retired Designer Series Papers to decorate the boxes and for the box construction corners.
After I design a layout and determine dimensions, I cut my chipboard bottom and sides.  I keep the height at 2 1/4".  The bottom size is about 5 1/2" x 5 1/2".   Using construction strips cut from DSP I build the box.  Then all the sides and bottoms are covered with DSP. .  This makes a very sturdy box base.  
To build the compartments is like a puzzle.  I think about what I want the compartment, then I take a few measurements, start cutting & gluing.  A video would be helpful for this part. I prefer that the tools not lay around so I like to keep them organized in little compartments -- makes them easier to locate. 
When everything is done I just fill them up with whatever tools are needed for the class.  Usually scissors, adhesives, a block, envelopes, white liners, etc..  My customers love them.
