Organization ideas, simplifying, great storage ideas, creative gifts, gardening and lovely outdoor spaces, creating and decorating on a budget, repurposing and making the old new, and loving shabby chic. Being able to find what you need when you need it. Take back control of the "things" in your life, love where you are and love what you have so you can enjoy the ride.
Organize Simplify Create Design
It is perpetual, living life and keeping it simple. Peace of mind comes from having a place for things. As I watched "Horton Hears a Who", with my grandchildren I thought about no matter how "tiny" the thing, it deserves a home. So I live by the old adage, a place for everything and everything in its respective place...

Not enough room inside the pantry?
Make use of the door. Racks that hang over the top of the door are available, but I prefer the mounted type. I find this is a great place for my vitamins, Koolaid or Crystal Light, nuts, dried fruits which I like to store in inexpensive plastic containers with lids. These fit perfectly inside the rack I purchased from Lowes. I like to keep a box of Ziploc sandwich bags and snack bags right in the middle section, that makes for handy grabbing! I also have some old Tupperware containers that house baking soda, baking powder, taco seasoning, Lipton Onion Soup mix that adds such flavor to gravy, chili seasoning and Hidden Valley Ranch dressing mix. If you like herb teas, those boxes fit nicely in these racks too! The truth be known, I have too many tea selections for my Tupperware bin. Ooops!
