Then I pinned and sewed each pocket into place on my fabric.
I folded the top of my muslin rectangle over and ironed it down. Before sewing, I made sure to leave an opening big enough for my dowel rod and ribbon to go through. I sewed along the bottom edge.
I tied the ribbon in a knot at the top and hung it from a hook inside our pantry door.
I typed up labels for each pocket and then cut them to size and slipped them in the holders.
I clipped a label to each pocket. I am going to let my little girl write the labels herself when we get a chance. Great writing practice and she loves being a part of my projects. Also, who doesn’t love a little kid’s handwriting?
And there you have it. Organized art supplies.

I love this! I just threw an old pair of jeans in my stash that would be perfect for this. And the name tag holder label idea… genius!

What a cute idea!
I really like this idea…endless possibilities! I need to use it for some of my scrapbooking supplies! It's time to break out those jeans I'll never wear again, lol.
My niece and clever, creative and cute:-)

This is great! I love the little "butt" pocket, too cute!!
I'm sure you've fooled everyone into thinking the kitchen is clean too! 🙂
Great idea!
What a great idea! My kids' supplies are currently overflowing from a small (decorated) box on top the fridge..
great idea! I've been wanting to make something like this, but didn't really have a reason to! I love the heart supplies! (and I just got some clear vinyl at a great price!)
Fantastic project!! This is timely too!! I need to make this now!
=)
What a great idea, Tiffany!! You are so amazing and creative!! LOVE IT!
Excellent! I can think of so many uses for this concept… spice packets, batteries, rubber bands… so much of that stuff that's in the "junk drawer".
What a cool idea! I linked to your tutorial on Craft Gossip Sewing:
