We have a small collection of take out menu's, mostly things like sushi, pizza and a restaurant with really good Curry!
Thanks to Martha (or more specifically her new organization line at Staples) I have a way better way to organize them.
I bought one of the small plastic pockets! We hung it in the pantry cupboard!
It's awesome! So awesome that we ordered pizza for dinner last night! ;)
I'm headed back to Staples tomorrow to pick up another one . . . for the laundry room.
I also picked up some Kraft Paper Labels, the spice rack is going to get a serious spruce up!
Anyone else picked up anything from Martha's New Line???
Ah! Excellent Solution! I hope they sell those in Australia...
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I was just shuffling those around last night. What will you use it for in laundry room!
ReplyDeleteOh boy, I have to go to Staples and dare I wander looking at the Martha line?
ReplyDeleteIt's perfect - simple and so helpful. I daren't hope they will sell these at Staples in Europe ... :(
ReplyDeleteJule
Ruh roh - I have a problem with office supplies! They beg to be placed in my cart and brought home ;)
ReplyDeletePlease post pics of what you do with the kraft labels and spices - I'm intrigued since that's a "hot spot" in my kitchen. Thanks!
I love how you post things on the inside of your cupboards! Helps eliminate that annoying junk drawer!
ReplyDeleteIf you need any tips for spices I recently reorganized mine using small mason jars! Feel free to check it out here - http://www.pinkhsc.com/2012/01/spices-mason-jars-love.html
I did pick up some Martha stuff!!! I got the chalkboard labels to label my kids' toy bins and I got the white hanging file holder (to hold all of the papers my kids bring home from school or the mail -- instead of the counter 'holding' it!!!) and i got the little round tags with the metal to label little baking gifts for me friends! (or possibly name tags on kid birthday treat bags -- we do have a birthday coming up, so I am considering that)!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what you do in yoyur laundry room and with your spices!!
I want a Martha Steward binder next -- just waiting on that though1!!!
Oh my goodness. Lightbulb moment for me. I have been trying to figure our a good solution for these, I was going to put them all in a binder, right now I just have them stacked on the side of the plates in our cabinet. You may have just made my life a little bit easier, this seems perfect! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI so need to go check out her line! We keep ours in a binder, just slip them into plastic sleeves. I keep the coupons for the restaurants in a sleeve right behind the menu so we don't forget to use them. Can't wait to see what you are using the pocket for in the laundry room. Our laundry is on my list of to dos!
ReplyDeletei love reading your blog, but it has been boring the last few weeks. show us more of your beautiful home and your amazing decorating/organizing skills!
ReplyDeleteI freakin' love this idea. And can you tell I'm a DIY/home decorating blogger since I got THIS excited about organizing takeout menus?
ReplyDeleteThis is one of those ideas where I am hitting my forehead and asking myself WHY didn't I think of that! So darn simple and just brilliant, Ashli!
ReplyDeletewhy didn't I think of that! I just have them taped to the inside of the cupboard...this is so much neater!....GGrrrreat idea...thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGreat solution for those pesky takeout menus!
ReplyDeleteYour kitchen organization posts are my favorite! :o)
ReplyDeleteMany Blessings,

I just picked up a TON of things from Staples from Martha's new line!! YAY!! Love all of the Avery labels. I am using them to organize my new office!
ReplyDeleteLove Martha's line, I had a hard time keeping any control around it. And this is a great solution for take out menus! I love these simple quick tips! Great work my friend {and organizing genius}! Love ya! <3
ReplyDeletexoxo,

Obsessed with her new line. I'm glad they have it for you in Canada :) I have a few of the hanging pockets (in that sea blue) that I keep in our kitchen for in/out mail.
ReplyDeleteI am so heading to Staples and getting us one or two or three too!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I have been hearing about Martha's line for about a week now and I think I may need to head on over to Staples this week! I am a huge sucker for office supplies, and cute ones are even better :) ~gina
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! My husband used adhesive to apply a custom-cut piece of galvanized metal inside two of my cabinet doors. I post things up with cute little magnets. It's very convenient.
ReplyDeleteooo I like! I think I may just have to do this!
ReplyDeleteI have the same dark cupboards in my kitchen and I love this idea but I'm worried the tape/sticky part may damage the cupboards when I take it down - any thoughts on that?
ReplyDeleteThanks!
excellent solution for my business.
