Raise your hand if you think this summer is going by too fast! My kids go back to school in August and I am panicking. The last day of school feels like just last week so it took me by surprise when I looked on the calendar and saw that it was time for another Styled X3.
This month I picked out this adorable storage tote. I love the lettering, handles, and the fact that it is collapsible.

The awesome bloggers who will be joining us this month are Jess from Mom 4 Real and Katie from Sweet Rose Studio. Just a quick reminder about how this all works. I pick an item and buy three of them. I keep one and send the other two items to a couple of my blogging friends. We all style the item in our homes. Altering the item is allowed but not necessary.
I started this series as a way to introduce you guys to other bloggers and to show how to style the same (inexpensive) thing in multiple ways. It has been mt favorite series here on the blog!
I LOVE magazines and catalogs and while I do not subscribe to very many, they tend to add up over the year. I like to look through them multiple times so I keep them for awhile. In the past they were scattered all over my house. The bedside table, under the couch, and the kitchen counter to name a few places. Now they have a happy place to call home :)
You could add it to an entryway table, a dresser in your bedroom, or on your kitchen counter to catch not only magazines but all your mail.
What would you store in your tote?
Don't forget to hop on over to Katie's and Jessica's blog to see how they used it!
Luv the tote, I'm ordering a couple for myself. Thanks for the ideas!
Love this tote great idea. I may have to order myself one or two.
Please tell me more about that lovely blue rug. Thank you!
Isn't it great?! It is part of the Better Homes and Gardens line at Walmart.
Not only is this a cute storage idea, but I can see it being useful in my house if I suddenly had to make the house look presentable for guests. Grab it and whisk it off to a closet or bedroom.
Yes! Great idea. I am all about the quick last minute tidy :)
I love the storage tote and can think of all kinds of uses for it! Is it just stenciled on one side? I would stencil the other side with maybe "Fun Stuff", "Magazines", etc., and rotate occasionally to change the look!
Luckily for you it is blank on the other side! That is such a good idea!
You did a great job!
The tote looks wonderful.
Thank you for joining us at Thoughts of Home.
