Getting Organized! Friday Shopping Event at Mama’s Pocketbook & Make Mine Pink – August 28th

Please join us for shopping with a twist on Friday August 28, 2009 as we present "Getting Organized"

Getting Organized has taken on a new look! From being strictly functional to being functional and stylish has become the latest and greatest way of getting and staying organized. Pretty and stylish organization means that you no longer have to hide everything away in back room closets and filing cabinets. Instead, old locker baskets painted pink and stylishly chic organizers help you get organized in creative ways.
By using decorative boxes, vintage baskets and embellished magazine organizers, you can carry your decorating theme throughout your home, office, and even your laundry room.
Storage boxes filled with odds and ends,  office supplies or ribbons and trims can fit into the décor in any room.  A repurposed basket or box can beautifully organize your odds and ends while keeping them out of the way.  A vintage metal file box hand painted with pink roses keeps your papers safe while adding romantic charm. Elegant wooden boxes painted with flowers store photos, CDs and letters in plain view.A vintage china plate might hold a stack of favorite napkins on a table or open shelf. A pretty pink basket can store clean dishtowels by the kitchen sink. A white wicker basket keeps guest towels or magazines, or perhaps organizes your craft space.  Vintage nursery jars can hold cotton balls and other necessities while a refinished side table can keep your address book and notepaper handy.
When you need to organize, forget about boring boxes and folders that will keep everything out of sight. Instead, look around you for creative ways to accent your décor and store everything you need within arm's reach.

Take a look at Mama’s Pocketbook’s Purse Organizers!

These card cases are the best for organizing your purse! They are compact but hold a lot of things! Use one for your business cards, one for other cards, even use one for change! They are sturdy and hold up well to constant use. Very pretty too! Each has it’s own coordinating or contrasting yo-yo topped with a vintage or unique button, finding or pin. Think ahead - these make great gifts for Teachers, neighbors, bus drivers, or anyone on your list. Great for enclosing gift cards too! Get a head start on your holiday gifts and stocking stuffers this year!

We also carry these great purse organizers called “Pouchee”®. They are fabulous! You just put all your things in them, cell phone, camera, and yes even the little card cases above fit in there! I use one of these Pouchee’s in my bag and have three card cases that fit right in the inner compartments of the Pouchee!  These come in a variety of colors and make changing your purse a snap!
