Painting Project

We have been working on lots of projects here and there at our house, and I finally got one finished. Yay!

I found this beauty in someone's yard with a free sign, painted it with some antique white paint and furniture sealant($13), and added some cute knobs from Hobby Lobby($6). I'd say not too bad for 19 bucks! It now sits in our dining room and holds all of our board games, and matches our curtains perfectly!

I seriously love these knobs!

I think I'm ready for something bigger now... Maybe a barn door for our bathroom. :)

Summer Project #2

 Another Cricut project!

I love organization. And I love file folders.  And I love doing projects with vinyl.  So this was a natural idea from my organizing brain.

So nice for coupons!

And this one for all my kitchen appliance manuals, electronics manuals, and even warranties.

I also just got another blue file (target dollar section!!) that I will use for receipts. Now all I have to decide is what color to make the letters....

Organization Genius

So, I have a lot of shirts.

So many that my shirt drawer was overflowing and I could never close it without getting shirt sticking out.  Needless to say, it was a pretty messy drawer that bugged me everyday because I HATE unorganized stuff.  Today I decided to clean it out since Matt leaves me bored with all the homework he has to do.   Well, I only threw out 4 shirts (which is quite an accomplishment for me), but my drawer is now amazingly organized.

Instead of stacking my shirts on top of each other, I put them in like this...

It is AWESOME! The drawer closes wonderfully and it's sooooo easy to stuff a shirt in the front of one of the rows.  And it looks pretty! Why haven't I done this before?? Are there any other genius organizing secrets that I've been missing out on?
