Up-cycled Storage: Formula Canister


Currently I am going through a "purge and reorganize" phase in my house. HOWEVER, organization requires containers, and containers mean money.

To solve this, I am going to do a series on the different ways I turn everyday items into storage!

Printables!! I am officially in love with them. 
A printable is something that you can print either at home or at a photo center and use as decor for your home!
