Photo Books from Shutterfly

Happy October!!!  We had rain, rain and more rain this weekend and than a cool front.  Love this time of year.  Doors and windows open aaaaallll day.  Woo-hoo!

Okay, time to why I am here. 

This weekend I finished putting together our Summer Book from Shutterfly.  Shutterfly is an awesome site to upload photos and create just about anything you can from those photos.  I have been playing with making their photo books for awhile and I just love how easy it is to put together a book.

They have a Simple Path with ready made layouts and if you want, all you do is upload your pictures and Shutterfly plugs them into a book for you!  Pretty cool.  You can also do your own Custom Path to make it just how you like.  I did a Custom Path for our Summer Book and I love how it turned out.  I cannot wait for it to show up so we can all sit down together and remember our summer fun.

If you do sign up with Shutterfly, they always have amazing choices and you will receive great deals from time to time especially if you use their site often.


Photo books are a great way to organize all those digital photos that you take.  If you are like me, that is alot of photos!  I still like to scrapbook but I have found that photo books are quick, easy and are reasonably priced.  If you are not into scrapbooking at all, creating a photo book would be a great way to preserve and organize all those memories. 



Shutterfly did not pay me to do this post.  All thoughts and opinions expressed are my own.

Puzzle Organization-Update

Hope everyone out there is having a great Monday.  We are doing some cleaning and organizing around our house and I wanted to share how we organized some puzzles.

I decided to use some containers that I already had on hand.  I have been using them for craft and art supplies but I am going to be changing that soon.  So I decided these containers would work great for the puzzles we wanted to organize.

The puzzles are little 24 piece from the Dollar Tree.  I love buying these because they are only $1.00 of course!  The boxes they come in get worn out fast from being pulled out so much.  See the duct tape! 

 

I knew these boxes would work just right for the amount of pieces and the size of the pieces as well.

 

 

Next, I cut the picture off of the box and used double sided tape to place on outside of the container.  This way, we know which puzzle goes in which box and how the pieces fit.

 

 

 

The only thing left to do was to put the boxes up into the closet.  Doesn't that look good?  So much better than torn up boxes with duct tape!

 

 

Have a great week everyone and take some Time to Organize!

UPDATE:  The double sided tape from Dollar Tree did not work.  So , I used clear packing tape and that is doing great!  Live and learn.
