Today's Project!

Today has been a BUSY DAY! I've got the kids ALL home from school, and so I decided it was the perfect day to organize toys!
I'm so sick of them throwing all the toys in the toy closet!!!
So I found containers for things, and decided it was TIME.
I made photo labels for each bucket of toys... 
I got online and found a photo that was clean, white based and printed it off on 4x6 photo paper. 

 One for each of the helmets on top of the toy organizer. 

 One for the plastic pickle jar that now contains Lalaloopsy dolls. 
 A label for the squinkies that now live in the old Garlic Salt container. 
And a Transformers label for the Applesauce jar that now contain- yes. Transformers.
Another pickle jar for the Littlest pet shop. 

 And a transformer for the bigger transformers.

 Dolls, Dress up's, stuffed animals, and boy dress up's in the Toy Box.
And the pocket size Disney princesses in a pull out drawer (castle on top.)

All the containers are either recycled, or re-used.
The house is still clean, and the toys are organized. It's been great. 
 I copied the idea from Kallin's Pre-school, this is how they do all their bins. I love it. It's a visual reminder to the kids where things go, and where to find them. And it was FREE, because I just used paper, and old jars and containers! I love that free part, too!

After I did this, crazy organizing project... I then proceeded to contact my real estate agent, my loan guy, see a new home, offer on a home, consult with 3 loan companies, and sign paper work on a offer. All the time with kids in tow! I put almost 200 minutes on my phone, and sent a couple dozen text messages. It's been a busy day. And I also watched my niece, kept all 3 of my children happy, went to McDonalds, and now, I'm going to go veg out. Night all. Loves.
