Velcro Drawer Dividers

I was so happy to find this. We have pretty big drawers in this hours and every time I open the drawers, everything slides back and forth.  It drives me nuts!!! I used small command strips instead of velcro dots just so that they are easier to remove but this works awesome.  Now everything stays in place, YAY!!

Organizer out of Cereal Box

This was way too easy, I thought it might be a little more difficult but this took hardly any time and was really easy to make.  What a great idea also!!! I even thought you could put dividers or pockets in there also for each person in the family.   A really cute way to display the papers that you need.

Scooter Stand

Thank you to the woman who had the foresight for this idea.  It is awesome!!  I hated tripping over scooters and bikes and having them lay all over the garage.  My husband and I bought the needed 2x4's and set out to make our own.  First it only took about 20 minutes and we even made room for the bikes on ours. Plus you cannot get much cheaper than 2x4's. Most bike racks like this are upwards of 50 dollars.  We set ours up to be bike, scooter, bike, scooter, that way each child has their bike and scooter together.  We just made the slot for the bikes smaller than the slots for the scooters.  I love this, it has made our garage much more tidy and I have to say I have been so impressed with our kids because they have kept on top of keeping their bikes and scooters on the rack.  Awesome idea!!!!

Securing Wrapper Paper with Toilet Paper Tubes

 As you can see I have a lot of wrapping paper and that doesn't include my Christmas wrapping paper!! I know I may have a problem.  I currently use tape or rubber bands to hold the roll together once it is open, that works ok but not great, so I wanted to try this out. I have to say that this would work great for one size roll of wrapping paper so if you solely have one size of wrapping paper than this would work great for you.  It does not work on the small or large rolls and in all of my paper I actually did not have one that it worked on. Taking the time to save toilet paper tubes and then testing them on all of my tubes was a waste of time and not something I am interested in doing.  Now if you are a normal person who only has one or two or maybe five and they are all the same size then I think this would work great for you.  I am still giving it a pins down because of all my rolls it did not fit on any of them and I am not sure how long it would take you to find the right size for you wrapping paper and that does not seem very practical to me.

Cups with Magnets

I love this idea!! I am so glad I found this on Pinterest.  Not only did they withstand the dishwasher but my kids thought it was great that they each got their own cup on the fridge.  This has been great solution to going through multiple cups.  Thank you for the great idea.

Shoppers Cards

You know all of those shoppers cards you get and you end up putting them in a huge pile in your wallet and then you end up at the store going through your huge pile trying to find the one you are looking for and half the time you completely forget about them, that pretty much describes me and my shoppers cards, so when I saw this pin I thought it was such a great idea.  I went straight to work getting this done to my cards and I love it.  The only downside is where to put it.  I have it just sitting in my purse right now but have considered attaching it to my wallet or the strap of my purse, we will see what I like better.  Such a great idea though and makes shopping with those cards so much easier.

Soda boxes as Canned Food Organizer

What an awesome idea, when I saw this I knew I need to try it out.  I first set out to save as many soda/pop/coke boxes as I could.  Then I used mod-podge and wrapping paper on covered the boxes so they looked sort of pretty. I have to say that was the hardest part, I think if I would have used a thicker paper it may have been a little easier.  I just wrapped the boxes like a present and mod-podged it all on. They turned out really well.  I set out to put all of my cans inside them and then I started stacking them and they caved in.  So I took some popsicle sticks and reinforced the top of the boxes.  Once I did that they were sturdy enough to stack and I had no problems after that.  I love the way my pantry looks know and it is so easy to see what we have and do not have.  Thank you to those who have come up with this awesome idea. I gave the time three stars because it does take a little time to get the paper on the boxes and three stars for cost because it is only not expensive if you already by the soda for your home, if you do not buy soda, the best way would be to ask others to save their boxes for you.

Dish holder as Pot Lid Holder

I loved this idea, I have so many pot lids that just sit in the bottom of my cupboard and are such a pain to deal with.  My organizer was just a cheap one from Walmart not a nice wood one but it is all the same to me.  It works awesome, my lids are now organized and out of the way and not to mention easy to find.
