TV side-table organizing

How nice is it  to think of new use for something you have around your house and you find it perfectly fitting your demands. This was a desk organizer as you see. But I used it for organizing TV remote controls and TV guide. It fit perfectly my stuff there next to the tissue paper box and ashtray that we use it for small garbage. We don't smoke but I admit I have cutest ashtray ever!!

I like it. It holds my TV, receiver, DVD and HDMI controls. It is wooden and super cute and has pocket for each one with bigger pocket at the back holding the TV guide.

What I wanted to say is to think outside the box of a new use for things around your home that you don't use or you don't need. Don't go directly to supermarket spending your money in buying baskets and bins while some containers in your house try to find something to do. Think of what else can I use this for. What else can I store in this. What looks like this shape that fits here. etc..

I will make you some tips on how to keep your living room clean most of the time however busy you are. Wait me for the next post. I hope you liked this post and found it useful for you. Waiting for your feedback responses and comments. If you like to share any  organizing project I will be glad to share it here in my blog. See you next post.

Nursery organizing with zero budget - My baby dresser

I am very excited to share my baby dresser organizing with you and I hope you like it as I do. This dresser is only for his undershirts, under-trousers and some stuff I use for him often like his nail clipper, some nursery stuff and similarities. In this project I spent ZERO MONEY!!


I will show you the dresser from the front. As usual about me, I like to label everything. but these are the most adorable labels I ever made. Have a look

Like you see, the first drawer has his nursery tools, feeding tools, medicines and baby oils. The second for long and short sleeves and underwear. Third one has his shoes, gloves and bibs and the last one is for toys.
So let's start our tour.

Before I put anything inside I made this cute divider out of cardboard and I covered it with contact paper. It doesn't look perfect but it is really functional and doesn't look that bad !!

This is the first drawer. It doesn't look pretty like those you see around the internet but as you see everything is divided and organized. There are his little hair comb, his little nail clipper. I put them into a galaxy chocolate box lid. It works perfectly because it has a cute depth, the tools are small and it fits perfectly on that spot. The rest of the box is in the next drawer. Also the drawer has baby powder, baby oils and baby lotions. Also his medicines which I labeled their cap so I can see everything from the top. Also his ointments and droppers.

Second drawer has long sleeves on the left, short sleeves on the right, under trousers in front (He doesn't have too many) and underwear in galaxy chocolate box.

Third one has small little things like his gloves , his socks, his shoes and bibs. As well as his yellow scarf and hats.

This was about my baby dresser. If you like to know how I did fold the clothes click here. If you have any organizing project you like to share I will be glad to share it here in my blog. I am waiting for your responses, comments and feedback . See you next post.

How to organize fridge - My fridge tour

This is one of the most excited posts I would like to share since sometime and many of you have been waiting for it. I will take you in a tour in my fridge.

First of all I like to label EVERYTHING. I know people will make some fun of me but I don't care. I just like to label because it feels awesome and very neat for me. It is easy for me to organize like this. If I have a family guest s/he will feel comfortable to open the fridge and pick whatever to help me cooking or to eat something.

Let us start by the very first shelf in the fridge. My fridge is neither too small nor too big. It's normal size.

The first shelf has all things we have in breakfast or simple light dinner, i.e all things we get from grocery like cheeses, olives, pickles, halvah, pastrami and luncheon. I like always to put them into boxes in order to not leak anywhere or dry or have a bad smell in the fridge.

For the second and third shelves, I really like them because I used to put fruits and veggies in colanders and wash them , leave them to dry whenever I came from the hyper market. It feels AWESOME picking fruits to eat without any offer to wash them. Or to make a salad on the spot with no wash. Everything is dried and clean I really like that.

The last shelf is for juice and soda as well as for leftovers from dinner. I managed to put fridge coasters for all shelves but I felt I will not see the beauty of my fridge in fruits and veggies colors and stuff. So I put one coaster in the last shelf because I believe it will prevent soda bottles from moving around :) .

In the bottom drawer I have snacks in extra colanders and dry goods that I believe that they last longer in the fridge.Let's have a look inside

Some chocolate bars and my home-made lazy cake. I like to make lazy cakes for breakfast when my baby cries all day long I need something to give me power and at the same time ready to eat. On the right I have tamarind, wheat germs etc..Let's move to the door.

We have water in the fridge because we live in a hot weather country specially in summer,  so we need cold fresh water everyday.

the first shelf of the door I have medicine that need to be cold and eggs. I know the door is the warmest place in the fridge. But I don't have the problem of the door cooling issue specially with eggs just because I bought the fridge with already a place here for the egg, so I believe this is the right place for it. The second shelf has my baby ready-made and home-made food. Anyway I use this food during four days maximum, so I am not worry about the door cooling issue.

Next shelf has all condiments we use while cooking or eating. just a quick tip here if you have your Romano cheese dried for any reason just put it in the food processor and you can add it on salad, pasta, pizza and any other kind of food. They are tasty. There is a small transparent box in the right that I use for ketchup small bags that we collect when order deliveries but it is empty now.

In the last shelf I have dairy. We don't buy more than this amount weekly and some fresh cold water. I know these beautiful bottles are made for milk, but I like them because they look so nice, they are easy to pour water from it without getting the cover off, and because I didn't like the water bottles in the markets.


This was my fridge  tour I hope you liked it. If you like to share any organizing project I will be glad to share it here on my blog. I am waiting for your comments, feedback and responses. See you next post.

DIY : Changing table organizer for baby

It has been a long time not to  post on my blog. I really missed blogging. I had to have some time focusing on some duties of taking care of my baby and back again to the track and I think it's time to come back again.

Before going into this lovely project, all the changing needs used to be on the side table which actually my makeup mirror counter. I don't have changing table so I used my baby bed as a changing table putting a mat under him while changing.

I was thinking about plastic door organizers and fabric remote control organizers we used to see around the internet. So I made this one by my own and it REALLY WORKS. All what I needed were fabric from my craft room, sponge sheet, scissor and sewing machine. I am not very good in using sewing machine. Actually I don't have one, but my mother in low has and with a little of help we have done this gorgeous organizer.

Just cut double layers of fabric that fits the height and width you need facing the wrong side of fabric out and putting single layer of the sponge sheet on the top then sew the edges except one edge that allows you to turn the fabric to the right side, turn to have the right face again and close the last edge. With the same concept create the pockets and attach them to the long piece of fabric.

I attached the organizer to the bed by some threads. Let me take you in a tour.

In the very first pocket he has his changing mat folded, some diapers and baby changing lotion.

The second pocket he has some of stuff he uses every day like hair brush, his dummy, perfume and if he currently takes any medicine.

In the very last pocket I put for him reusable milk tins that I used for paper towels, home made baby wipes ans small size trash bags to put dirty diapers inside them ...tie them strongly ... you know for the smell :D.

If you want me to make a post about  how to do it step by step or if you like to know how to make your own baby wipes or how to roll trash bags in a tin please leave a comment below and if you have any project that you like to share please send me on my E-mail . I will be happy to share it here in my blog. see you soon
