Curtain hooks reused

It's the middle of the week already!  Hope your day is going great.   We had a really busy weekend, but I did manage to get the hooks up in the kids bathroom.  My wonderful husband showed me how to use the anchors and it looked pretty easy.  My oldest is doing a pretty good job of remembering to hang his towel up now.  That makes mommy happy!

I have decided to spruce this up a little.  I am going to get two picture frames and hang one over each hook.  The frames will have a picture of my kids that way they know which towel is who's.  I saw it on a blog and thought it was really cute.  I will have to post those pictures when I get it done.

I almost forgot to mention the hooks used to be in our bedroom.  I used them to hold back the curtains on each side of the window.  I got rid of the curtains and I am so happy I got to reuse these hooks.  Didn't cost a dime!

Legos under control

I have been working on organizing my son's Legos for years and I think I may have finally won the battle.  I went to the Dollar Tree, bought 12 like containers, labeled by color and contents and placed on the bookshelf in his room.  I asked him if he thought he could keep it organized this way and he said he thought he could.  I hope so!  The hardest part was sorting all the colors.  It probably took me about 6-8 hours, but I really feel it was worth it.  He does have two large Lego containers and I put a few sets that we had separated into those, along with all the instructions for the many sets that he has collected over the years.  I hope this set up will make it easier for him to put sets together and be more imaginative with his own creations.  


Happy Friday to all and have a great weekend!

Projects, Projects

Hello all!  Hope everyone is having a great week.  I have several little organizing projects going on right now.  I am getting all of my sons Legos organized(time consuming), redoing an old bookshelf for the bathroom and still trying to hang some curtain holders in the kids bathroom for their towels.  I will need my husband's help on the last one.  He will have to teach me how to use wall anchors!  Yikes!  I will post pics when I am done with each!  Hopefully the Legos will be done before Saturday!  Here is a pic of my amazing kids and one of my son's Lego creations.
