Organizing the Office



Mainly, I moved all my items from storage to my new home. It drove me crazy to see the mess,  but it also motivated me & excited me to organize. I had to take a huge bedroom and down size my craft gear to a 5 shelf area. I got rid of quite a bit of stuff. I have one area that is for the kids crafts as well. I had to get rid of at least 1 1/2 boxes of kids crafts also. Mainly just odds and ends. Some of my office stuff that I was going to get rid of went to my daughters school. I had binders, colored paper & border/textured scissors.

 AFTER PICS:




I need to still work on the 5 shelf so that it flows with your eye. For now, it is all organized and put away. Very niiice.. I also need a new way to organize my stickers, they are in the purple plastic carrier. The 2 pics on the bottom are the girls craft things. The vacuum is next to the cabinet where the girls things are organized and neatly put away. I should have taken a picture with the door opened. The over the door organizer is  a 24 pocket shoe over the door organizer that I found at Storables. I found the idea online for anything and everything in the house. Target and Home Depot carry different ones, and colored ones.. But I really wanted the clear one to see what is in each pocket. My girls are 6 and 9 and I wanted to keep it simple. I did label a couple of pockets, since one is sticker and the other one was tattoos.


Hair Flower

So we all know my favorite site is Tip Junkie and all there she has a blogger I love:
This is where I found another blogger, who is amazing with little girls hair..
This is where I found this idea!! She has great ideas and she shows you in YouTube.. It is amazing! This is the 2nd time I tried this, but the first time does not count, we were in a rush and so I had no time to do it. This 2nd time, I relaxed and understood it better and only put 1 hair flower in her hair:
With a little more practice, I will have it down. Next time, I am going to do a couple on her head.
I think it is so cute!!

IF you click on the above image, it will send you right to the making of the Hair flower. It is actually really easy as long as your daughter stands still. That was half my battle!
