Last Part of the Laundry room

Again, forgot to take a before picture:(  Ryan had already put these shelves in before I said "oh WAIT....I forgot to take a before pic"  Sorry, just picture this space with no shelves:)






Now I just have to find 4 matching baskets that are NOT $20 a piece!  I just think that's crazy!

Given some Lovin to the Laundry room

Our set up for laundry is a little strange...you actually have to go though our laundry room to get to our bathroom on the main floor.  (Not my favorite part of our house)  Ryan and I have been brain storming for awhile on how to make this room look more attractive.  We were going to put cabinets, but when we went shopping for them, I was in shock!  No way was I going to spend over $200 dollars for cabinets I didn't even like that much.  So it has looked that way for over 3 years now, until last week when the DIY in me took over and I explained my idea to Ryan. 
No sooner did I explain then we were off to Menards to get the trim pieces.  (We already had the MDF board for the shelves, Ryan just had to cut it)


I got the iron L brackets from Hobby Lobby 50% off, thank you very much!  They were $4 each!!!


After some white trim paint we already had, here is the finished product.  I would say much more attractive then the before:)

TIME TO ORGANIZE!!!

Ahh, the good ol' junk drawer. You can find one in almost every house.  I actually love the idea of a junk drawer because I love things to have a spot or a "home" as I tell my 3rd graders "EVERYTHING MUST HAVE A HOME"  anyway junk drawers are great until you have so much junk, that you can't open them to put any more junk away. 
(See above)
A lot more stuff then in looks

I bought this to put all of our take out menus and house idea papers in
Now there are no loose papers in the junk drawer
All "junk" papers have their very own "home" now:)

While I'm at it......


Kitchen Sink make over




Ta da!  Now I can actually wash baking pans without getting water all over myself and the floor!
