Organizing with baskets

Hello everyone!  Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

I'm trying to do a little organizing here and there at my home.  I find that a great way to get organized and to keep things nice looking are to corral items in baskets.  There are so many options that it becomes hard to decide!  Here are some beautiful baskets for us to choose.

Organizing Christmas Decorations: Part 2

Hi everyone! Hope you all are having a great week so far!  I finally put my tree away on Sunday, so sad to let it go!

As I mentioned before I usually put ornaments in ziploc bags and sort them by color so that way I know exactly what is inside and how much I have... I've been tempted to leave them in their original packages but found they take too much space...

By accident, last year I bought Net-Style lights, at first I didn't like them but when it was time to put them away I loved them, just fold the net and put back in the original boxes!

I put everything that has to do with our Christmas tree in one box: ornaments, lights, tree skirt, etc. So that way, next Christmas I can grab this one box and start decorating our tree...

And I got other boxes for specific items.  One for Decorating-not tree related-items, table runners, etc...

 Another one for Presents: all sorts of tissue paper, ribbon, bags, etc...

 And one for Crafts: punch holes, glue, glitter, felt and everything to make pretty things...

And we are ready to put away in shelves.

'Til next time babies!!

Do you have a system to store your Christmas items?  Share yours with us!!

Organizing... Broom Closet

How nice is to open a closet door and find everything your looking for?  I need to do some organizing in my broom closet so I can get my vacuum without moving five other things around :)  I will probably need to get some tools first.  How do you organize your broom closet?

Beautiful Spaces.... Bathroom Shelves

I love the look of shelves in bathrooms. Besides working as great storage for towels and other items you can accessorize them with endless options giving your bathroom a spa or hotel room looking.
