[DIY Storage] Caboodles

Look who got a super chic makeover:  Caboodles! My childhood go-to for carrying around an extensive collection of lipsmackers (Dr. Pepper obvi) and Vanilla Mist perfume, has reinvented itself and, once again, is an integral part of my everyday life. As I prep to do some traveling in the upcoming months, I now have a fantastic carrying case for all my jewelry making supplies. I can't wait to break this out at my next DIY party and reminisce about Tiger Beat, Mall Madness, Jordan Catalano...dreamy sigh 

Now I have a place to store my I Spy DIY Sharpies! Take a peak inside after the break...

  27. i really, really want one of these, been drooling on them since i found one online...
    the problem is: What to do with the three smaller caboodles that i have had for years once i move my art/craft supplies out of them into this? Perhaps a traveling project case?
