I've been on an organizing kick lately. This year, I've blogged frequently about how I'd like to create a fun, but clean basement playroom for my kids. (Check out my posts on my plans for fixing up our unfinished basement on the cheap). My kids currently have a play space in our unfinished basement, but the toys are stored in open storage, which makes the basement playroom space look messy. Plus, since the basement is unfinished, the only color in the space (besides the toys) is the drab gray of the basement floors and walls.

Keeping the Stove Clean
If there’s one thing that drives me crazy about my kitchen, it is how there are spaces between the stove and the countertop. The spaces are just big enough to allow particles of food and spices to slip between the cracks, making it difficult to keep the kitchen clean.

Organizer Pocket for Fridge Door
To see even less visual clutter on home's fridge door, I decided to follow the advice I found at myschneiderbucket.blogspot.com and create my own refrigerator pocket organizer. The cereal box I had on hand was much smaller than the one she used, so instead of cutting off the top of the box, I cut open the side, so I could have an opening that would fit 8-inch by 11-inch papers. I then found some leftover wrapping paper in green (my favorite color) and wrapped the box like I would any box with wrapping paper. I secured magetic clips to the back to hold up the back of the Continue reading...
