7/17/10 Make up Drawer
My Make-up Drawer Before (Sorry for Poor Quality photo)
You have to at times work with what you have on hand. These drawers are deeeep & long, it is hard to find containers that would fit in this odd shaped drawer. I hated this bcs there was alot of dead space under the baskets & the BARELY fit
After Shot...
With a Container I purchased at Target for $12.99 It consists of 6 pieces. One Looong piece at the bottom (about 6' x 15') and 5 other random sized cubes that STACK ontop of the bottom one LOVE IT.
The white basket on the side I had in another drawer bcs I couldnt fit it in here B/F
These are 2 of the compartments they also have 2 small square ones
I was able to stack 2 eye pallets and still put the container (on the counter) on top of it and it fit perfectly

7/16/10 ~ Interesting Quote
"Life is constant change. So when something comes into UR life Enjoy it, Use it well & when it is time Let it go. Just bcs U own something doesnt mean U HAVE to keep it forever. U R just a Temporary Custodian of many things that pass through UR life."

6-15-10 ~ Habits
Routine is the birth of habit...If we could disciple ourselves to get into certain Routines we can develop some great Habits!.
Some Routines we could get in the habit of:
#1. Put Belongings Away Immediately ~ This helps in the following ways:
Saving Time ~ When you put an item away immediately (bcs it has a "home") you wont be wasting time finding it next time.
Saving Space ~ When you put an item away immediately it has a "Home" and will not use other space to fill
Prolonging the life of an item ~ When you put an item away immediately you will be able to truly get your moneys worth out of that item. It will last longer therefore you will enjoy it longer this will allow you to prolong the purchase of a replacement
Placing Value in items ~ When you put an item away immediately you are showing others around you (Kids other adults) that you value your belongings and they will possibly get the message they should as well when they use them or barrow them. Kids will especially be the ones to teach this to.
Clearing your mind of "Clutter" ~ When you put an item away immediately you don’t have to remember "I need to come back alter and put that away?" or "Where did thing go?" or "Did so and so barrow it and never give it back?" or worse yet "What is that smell?" lol
Save you money ~ When you put an item away immediately you will not have to go to the store buy something only to come home and later find out you have 3 bottles of Windex and 2 Pledge sprays & 5 Lint rollers. BCS everything has a home you will be able to see what you need and don’t need when it comes time to shop
