When I was a young Homemaker,(mom,wife) I had to make do a lot, so don't get discouraged about money, make it a fun thing to get creative. Thrift stores, and garage sales, can help a lot... Plus, I had to learn to stay out of the stores!!! Thank you for being so practical!!

In traditional martha fashion they no longer look like cereal boxes. In fact they're actually kind of cute. http://cataurl.com/OrODf I thought you might b interested in this solution from Ms. Martha about using cereal boxes to stay organized.

I agree with you though... do what you can now. It doesn't have to be perfect! I think people get so caught up on wanting perfection. I agree with you though… do what you can now.

Just kidding. I love the pantry your friend did. I typically pick up little inexpensive containers as I come across them at the grocery store, Dollar Tree, etc. I'll catch up with you soon.

Blogger is not letting me see her web site at the moment, but I'll check back. I use one dishpan for each of us when I fold laundry. I decorated them with Sharpie markers with our names and doodles of some of our favorite things. I have 2 other dishpans for toys on the bottom shelf of our play shelf. I thought about using them for containers when I reorganize our hidden toys storage area in the laundry closet. I haven't taken a pic for you yet. I will when and if we decide to go for it!<br/><br/>Thanks for all your great ideas. I liked those tubs you got the other day too. This is great!

I had an on line yard sale and got rid of so much stuff. You are right it doesn't cost much to organize. In fact it pays. :) I made good money this week. And sold all my stuff.<br/>Hugs,<br/>Elizabeth Hi Laura,
