Whether I’m spending the evening in the living room with the boys, hanging out at Starbucks, or going on vacation, I needed a method to travel with my toys that was small, useful, and easy.  I’ve searched on Google, YouTube, Facebook, and Pinterest for ideas.  Fortunately more ideas to organize on-the-go supplies are starting to appear.  So I used the ideas that I found and thought about what is it I really want if I’m not in the pink room.  With that, I was able to create what I believe will be the perfect system for me.

I was using a toiletry organizer but it was hard to get items in and out, and for the size, not very useful.  I thought about one of my Longaberger market basket, but they currently serve a different purpose.  I was using a Thirty-one Keep it All tote for baseball games, but it wasn’t really necessary.  So I decided to repurpose it as my toy tote.

 I’ve only used this method for a month, but I’ve used it daily since I put it together.  I’ve used it to do Bible Journaling, Project Life, and Journaling.  Everything I need is in this bag.  I have a lovely creative space at home, but I don’t always create at home, so now I have a portable option.

View of various cases and boxes in my bag. I got the sticker organizer cover from TheResetGirlShop.com The tool case is a Contents cosmetic case from Target. The black polkadot case for chalk inks and the wooden box are from Hobby Lobby. My monkey pencil case is from a book store in Maryland. My MochiThings Note pouch is a must. If I have nothing else, I will still be in good shape to play.
