Cricut Tool Organization

Now that I have become Cricut-obsessed, I needed an organizational system for the tools. I found this adorable makeup brush holder at Target from Sonia Kashuk that matches my gold themed decor.

Everything fit in the compartments, but kept falling down so I thought of adding some beads or gems in the bottom to keep the tools upright. In the past, I purchased tiny gems for my makeup brushes, but they were on the pricy end, and I would have needed so much more to fill the tool holder. While at the Dollar Tree I came across these acrylic gems.

It took about 4 bags to fill up the container, but it definitely helps to hold all the tools upright.

Glittered Accessories

I love customizing my accessories and am obsessed with all things *GLITTER*. I have added glitter to my phone charger base, classroom hall pass, and started adding glitter to my desk supplies.

Since my three-hole punch is black, I chose black glitter. Here is how I did it!

Supplies:

  • Masking Tape
  • Paintbrush
  • Item to glitter
  • Glitter (I used black)
  • Mod Podge (Since I wanted my hole punch to be extra sparkly, I used the Mod Podge Extreme Glitter)
  • Paintbrush
Tape off areas that will not be glittered
Cover section with Mod Podge and then pour glitter on top- Don’t forget the edges!
Let it dry for a few hours and then add a second layer of Mod Podge

I added 2 more layers of Mod Podge on top of the glitter since I wanted a smooth surface. Make sure you let each layer dry a bit before you add the next layer. I peeled the tape off before it dried completely in case there were any leaks.

Tape peeled off and ready to dry overnight!
Let it dry for at least 8 hours so that it won’t smudge
Ready for use!

Can’t wait to add glitter to my other office supplies! Stay tuned and check out my Instagram for pics!
