Easy Toy Storage

Our daughter, Wynn, has discovered the land of the Disney Princesses, Hello Kitty and lots of other girl related goodies. She has collected quite a few dolls and stuffed animals recently, and I decided that she needed to have some new storage in her room.  


I had stumbled upon a pin on Pinterest suggesting that there were out of the box ways to organize toys.  The link sent me to a blog post by Attempting Aloha.  You can click on the link to check out the great ideas she shared on her blog.

I purchased a simple canvas shoe organizer off of Amazon. I know I could have searched for a deal somewhere, but I was anxious to get started and I couldn't resist the Prime shipping.  I wanted to just add a little detail to it, so I hot glued some ribbon to the top of each of the pockets, and then labeled some of the pockets.  I realize that Wynn does not read just yet, but I thought it looked cute if everyone had a home.

 Here is her new toy organizer next to her ribbon organizer. Can you sense that I like to be organized? The best part is that the ribbon organizer is pointless because she won't wear hair accessories.  

This project was done for approximately 15 dollars in about thirty minutes! I can't wait for Wynn to see it and find out if she likes it.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Updated Wall Decor with Fabric

I've had the same photo of a beach scene for a few years on our wall. It was nice but I decided I needed an updated look.  I had seen a few projects where people framed a nice piece of fabric for artwork. I went hunting for some fabric at Joann's, and I found a great remnant piece that would work with our colors.  

The fabric was only $1.99 for a half of a yard.  I thought this would make a great choice.
All I did was cut a piece of fabric that would fit in the frame, and then attach it with frog tape. I figured if I wanted to make a change down the road the tape would make it easier.  The frame I had gotten a few years ago at Michaels during one of their sales.

Since I only used a about a third of the fabric for this project it was under a $1.00 to complete. I am happy with the change, and it gives the wall a new look for not a lot of money.

Thanks for stopping by!

Adorable Nautical Nursery

My sorority sister recently shared her baby nursery on Pinterest.  She does not have a blog, and  I asked her immediately if I could share her amazing space.  I knew others would enjoy viewing such a special room.  She lives near the beach so the nautical theme is just perfect. Here are some of the photos she shared. Feel free to pin them if you'd like to do so.

She made the beautiful quilt and bumper in such an adorable fabric.  She refinished the oar herself and made the artwork. She purchased the other coordinating accessories that hang from the oar.

 She then also created this beautiful wall art, and was inspired by a pin she had found on Pinterest.

Her beautiful rocking chair was the one that her mom had used when she was little. This beautiful bunting that hangs across the window was also handmade in the same fabric as the bedding she made.

 Another beautiful feature in the room is the mirrored closet area. It looks so beautiful and perfect in this room.  

Thank you for letting me share your gorgeous and special room.  It is perfect!!
