Organizing Day 1

I spent some time organizing today. Most of my areas are quite organized but need refreshing. There’s always room for change & improvement. I’ve had this tiered basket for several years that I’ve been wanting to use but it’s too tall, too large in general to use everywhere I’ve tried to put it. Finally I decided today to take it apart & use the baskets separately. Love it! They are not going back together since I had to break the metal dowel out of the bottom basket but that’s just fine. At least I can use it. Now I have a cute wire basket for fruit & one for my Kcups. Love them both!baskets
I am *this close* to painting my china & dining set! It’s a huge project but I think I’m ready. So not a fan of orangey oak! Oak of any color…coffees
Which led to taking a picture of this corner…

Dead space in this corner so I put these pretties here. (They've been here for a while, just took a picture today.) The domed plates were last year’s birthday present from my brother & sister in law. The bottle is a lemonade bottle that I couldn’t throw away…

Now this idea, found on Pinterest, is just genius! A CD container to hold ribbons spools. So smart!

  1. love the baskets...what a great idea, taking them apart

  2. Yes, I probably could fill 5 more CD containers too! : ) I do like how I can see them better than where I have them now - in a jar or box. It works well for the larger spools, not so much with the smaller ones.
