Turning Thrift Finds Into a 5 Pocket Organizer Portfolio
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- Hi friends! I thrifted a big box of mailing envelopes and I made a handy organizer using just 1 envelope! I wonder what else I can do with them? Come back and find out.
I work for Paper Wishes/Hot Off The Press and this channel is a hobby. I'm not paid to promote Paper Wishes/Hot Off The Press on this channel; however as an employee I do receive free or discounted Hot Off The Press paper that I use in my videos.
I pay for the shipping on all of my giveaways and that expense adds up. If you like my videos I’d love for you to help with happy mail shipping fees. Even $1 would help www.buymeacoff...

Good find on the envelopes ❤ I remember a few families I knew growing up that had those salt and pepper shakers ❤ At 60 yrs old I'm finding that A LOT of things from them are antiques 😂❤. Beautiful papers ❤ Great idea for those envelopes ❤ Haven't used that closure in a while. Thank you for reminding me about it ❤❤ Since you have so many, maybe cut up one to use for the accordion slides
Thanks for watching
Love your idea for the organizer you make it look so easy. I would never think of doing this with envelopes. I also love your salt and paper shakes, right up my alley.
Thanks Linda!
Love to go thrifting with my sisters! You never know what treasures you can find. Thanks again for a great project ❤
So true! It’s always fun when you find a treasure or two
Great thrift store finds. Wonderful organizer--love the papers you chose. Looking forward to future projects with these envelopes.
Thank you! I’m sketching out new ideas!
This is such a cute portfolio. Beautiful papers, as always.
Thank you so much!
You always have the most Beautiful paper!!! I want to work where You Work!!! LOL!
😊 thank you Paper Wishes is a fun place to work! Sometimes I just wander the shelves looking for paper inspiration
I could watch your webisodes & hints all day! The organizer is cute! Thanks LaNae!
Yay! Thank you!
Great "Deal" on those envovolopes or should I say eye's 😀....
Another awesome and creative idea. Can't stop watching your videos.
Thanks so much! 😊
Every pocket project you create is so beautiful and unique! Thank you for sharing it! ❤️🤗
Awww thank you!
Use the 6". Yes, I love thrifting.
I also like what you are making. 😊
Thank you! 😊
I love all forms of thrifting! This is a pretty project!
I do too! Thanks for watching
Hi LeNae, this is a very useful project, I love your paper choice and great instructions! Thanks for sharing, have a wonderful week! ❤
Thank you! You too!
This is so cute. I especially like the accordian fold in the center. That is not something I would have thought of.
Thanks Lisa! Glad you like it
I love thifting, estate sales, etc. I, too love the MCM look.
The best!
I love today's project. The paper pack is perfect! I'm jealous as your city (location) has a great thrift store. The thrift stores in my area NEVER have treasures like yours. I like to forage around at garage sales but I prefer estate sales. Not only do I find better stuff, I "tour" the house while there! I've been in some nice houses but I've also been in some houses that make me wonder: "what were they thinking"? Pink shag carpet just doesn't do anything for me!!! lol, lol, lol.....
We love estate sales too! Be been to several great ones in the last few weeks. My mom use to drag me to them when I was a kid. I had no idea she was teaching how to find great treasures!
Thanks for sharing such a nice 5 pocket organizer. I will try to make 1 as it is super fun to recycle my envelopes. Thanks, and take care.
I'm an envelope fan myself! Thanks for watching!
Love this idea. Great deal on the envelopes because you can also use to mail your happy mail as well as craft with them.
I was thinking the same thing when I bought them!
Yes, in TN, we love doing it all. Thrift stores yardsales, etc. Church sells are the best. There is a little thrft store where we vacation. It supports scholarships for kids in their area.
I love that!
That was "A SCORE" on those Envelopes!!! You'll have Envelopes for Days.... & Days... & Days... LOL! I love going Thrifting! It's ALMOST time for when Yard Sales & Garage Sales start up around here!!!
Right!! My town loves garage sales!
I agree! I just bought 25 from Amazon 2 weeks ago and paid way more!
Absolutely love the inspiration and tutorial. Want to mass make.
I have some ideas to add.
Brain is exploding. Congrats to the winner 🏆.
Love the inspiration ❤️ 😂
I love that you're inspired! That makes me feel great!
We have a Almost Free shop in a small town near where I live in Iowa. It is always a great place to purchase crafty items and old paper books to craft with. Will be making this envelope when I get done watching you, thanks for all you suggestions 😊
That’s wonderful! Thank you
Beautiful! I loved watching your process. You selected the perfect papers, too! ❤
Thank you so much!
What a cute project. I love the papers you used. Thanks for shring.
Thanks so much! 😊
Love this project. Thanks for sharing. I love thrifting, too. Never know what treasures you will find.😊
Absolutely!!
I love this project and I’ve got some spare big envelopes that I could totally modify in this style! Thanks for the great ideas!
Wonderful! Have fun with it and thanks for watching 🌸
Salt and pepper shakers are anywhere from 1960’s to 1970’s. Nice fine and a good price!! Looks like they run from 15$ and up. Comes in a few colors as well. Amber , red , green
Thanks for the info. I love them
Enjoyed Learning this new idea. Thanks for sharing❤😊
My pleasure 😊 and thanks for watching
I was wondering what to do with my clasp Envelopes.
Thanks for sharing this.
Glad it was helpful!
Wow, you got a deal, I love going to any sale, especially yard sale, estate sales,
Me too!! So fun to treasure hunt
My husband and I love to go to garage sales.
Love it!!
Those are the best rulers.
Right? I love the weight of it
This is a wonderful gift idea. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for watching 🌸
Beautiful way to give a gift. Love it
Thank you!
That was absolutely adorable!
Thank you!
You did a great job and you and very easy!! Thank you
Thank you!

Thanks for watching Pam
So clever!! I love your ideas!!
Awww thank you Judith!
Love this! I made two of the last accordion file. I am definitely going to make this one, too! So cute!
Yay, thank you!l Connie!
Great, fines! Very cool project!
Thanks a bunch!
LeNae, thank you for sharing!! I have a half box of this same size envelope, now I will get busy and create...❤❤❤❤❤
Wonderful! Have fun!
This is so cute & can be used for so many things! But, I really don’t want to buy another thing! If I were to say I’m busting out of the seams with craft supplies would be wildly underestimating my situation! So, I’m trying to figure out how to just use paper, of which I own a ridiculous amount! If I can figure it out, I’ll be happy. It doesn’t seem like it would be hard, but my math skills are truly lacking! 😂😂 Great video too!
Yes! Use what you have! And thanks for watching
I love this idea. I’m starting an idea journal and this will definitely be in my journal.
I love that! It's not very bulky and would make a great addition to a journal
NC here. We ❤ a thrift store or yard sale.
Love your channel. Great demos.
I bet NC has great thrift stores. I would love to visit someday. Thanks for watching!
Hello, watching replay and is 1st time here, love this idea. Thank you
Thanks so much 😊 I post new videos every Monday!
Love your envelope journals! Heading to the craft room to start my first!
Thanks Barbara! I have a new envelope craft video posting tomorrow
@@lenaecreates I have my reminder set and looking forward to it.
New to your channel! 😊 Just wanted to say you provide a happy medium in that you don't go too fast or too slow with your instructions! I personally lose interest if creator's go 100mph, or if they move so incredibly slow. There's a lot to be said regarding the overall presentation during the process. I also struggle with ZERO discussion/ verbal instructions and only loud music playing 🤭 😊. Beautiful little storage pocket. 👍
Hi Barbara thank you so much for the feed back. I’m always worried that my pace is too slow and yet I’m teaching to people with different skill levels. Everyone learns differently and that’s a good thing. Thanks for the encouragement and for supporting my little channel with your view and comment. I post new videos every Monday morning.
That was an e "ellent thrift find. Love the salt and pepper shakers. Youshould really research those.
I did! They aren’t worth much but I love them!
Im amazed at how easy this is. Your pattern is beautiful. The punch cover for the inside rivet was genius. I understood the emoji 🤦as you were gluing it. 💓
Thank you so much!
Love kiwanis and Thursday 50% off day is always fun. I prefer estate sales. love to figure out clues about the people who lived there. I love old wooden rulers too.
Just went to a great sale this weekend!
1st time watching you. What a great craft!! I will be trying on
Welcome!! I post new videos every Monday. Thanks for watching!

Tell me again what you used to hold the green circle in place for the string to close.
Mini brads
The little button was probably from a man’s white shirt with the buttons to hold down the collar
Yes that must be it!
😅
Where do you find the paper u used?
Hello I use papers from Paperwishes.com and the links for each paper pack are located in the description box below the video. Paper Wishes is a tiny company located in Oregon and I love working with them.
Love this idea
Thank you! 😊
