I just saw this in a Container Store brochure--I think it's a great idea! Hang it on the back of a hall closet door and all school info sheetx, tickets, reservation sheets are at hand and nicely organized.

Here is a link that might be useful: container store cascading letter file tote

Wow, I like that pammyfay. Pity they only came up with the idea after my kids are all grown. But it would suit my teenage son. I couldn't find anything like it on any Australian sites. Wonder if any Aussies on here have seen anything like it down here.
Great idea.

another great idea i've seen for kids art..use those clear acrylic frames that you can slip things in and out of ..and slip in their latest art regularly..rather than using the frig
