Hi there! This time I am in a bit of a better mood. I got my new logo and it gave me renewed energies! What do you think about it! I decided to share with you all an idea that I saw on Pinterest, pinned from a blog called “i should be mopping the floor” and this is the link http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vdZMbrJtXf8/URaCQR1wNkI/AAAAAAAAOpg/Aq0aNRYIBSQ/s1600/crate1.jpg. When I saw it I actually got so excited, I even entertained the thought of going out and buying my husband an electric drill for the occasion. Then I remembered that he is not as excited about new tools as some men are and that probably the best idea is to just get him to borrow one from a neighbor. I am still working on it, but it will come eventually.
These crates are absolutely one of the best ideas I have seen for organizing! I know, there are lots of baskets and boxes out there. What I like about these is that they don’t cost a lot, you can really do it yourself! They can be as classy as you want them to be, and me with my wood burner…… I can do anything I want on them!! There is no end to the possibilities! They can be personalized with names for one’s personal items, or designed with a specific pattern to match a bedroom or kitchen motif. For example, my two younger girls have a whole bunch of hair clips and barrettes, headbands and ponytail holders. A box like this would be a perfect basket for their stuff, and their bedroom is slowly developing a very girlie butterfly motif, so wood burning some butterflies on it would almost make them fly themselves!! The boys are really onto horses so why not make a few boxes for them too?! With a few wood burned photos from Black Beauty, I might never find a toy soldier or Lego car on the floor again! In short, these crates are almost perfect for any place and can match any design!
Now all that is left is to get them built! So I think that next week I am going to my neighbor, the one that builds decks and patios, to ask him for leftovers! Then I will work on getting my husband to borrow the electric drill! After all that, I get to run rampant on the crates with my wood burner!!! Sounds like it will take longer that I would like, but a girl can hope can’t she?!
Until next time,
Shaina
