I found this post in my drafts. It’s just another example of how baskets can take your life from boring and ordinary to exciting and extraordinary. No kidding, it’s the best. Take a look for yourself and then go dump a drawer. Be careful though, you’ll be hooked the very first time :)

Do you want to see it?
Readers, [...]

Hello Caboodle! Where have you been all my life?
Unfortunately though this one isn’t mine, my girlfriend picked this [...]

I haven’t awarded a Storage Star in quite some time so I’m excited today to give this one away to Niki, the Minimalist Mommy! A couple of weeks ago Niki posted about the stack of canvas bags she scored at a yard sale for $2.00! As a lover of tote bags myself, I can totally [...]

Hey gals, so today I’ll show you the rest of my entrance way and how I keep it organized. Just for interest sake though let’s go back and take a look at a picture from last year:
And here it is today:

Pam, a reader (who doesn’t blog), sent me these before and after pictures of her newly organized cupboard and I was so happy when she said I could share them with you.
Would you rather find something in all this mumble jumble:
