Five Upcycled Fabric Storage Solutions

Do you love a certain piece of fabric so much that you want to use up every single scrap? You can show off even the tiniest leftover scraps of your most beloved fabric using this quick tip from Prudent Baby—fabric scraps folded neatly and layered in a vintage glass jar.

Wouldn’t it be cute to do this with the extra fabric that you used to make nursery bedding, stored up on a high shelf in the nursery itself? That leaves room for more fabric in the sewing studio!

I'm a writer, crafter, Zombie Preparedness Planner, and homeschooling momma of two kids who will hopefully someday transition into using their genius for good, not the evil machinations and mess-making in which they currently indulge. I'm interested in recycling and nature crafts, food security, STEM education, and the DIY lifestyle, however it's manifested--making myself some underwear out of T-shirts? Done it. Teaching myself guitar? Doing it right now.

Visit my blog Craft Knife for a peek at our very weird handmade homeschool life; my etsy shop Pumpkin+Bear for a truly odd number of rainbow-themed beeswax pretties; and my Google + for links to articles about poverty, educational politics, and this famous cat who lives in my neighborhood.
