Addicted to baskets

2 comments Posted by Amanda at 6:52 PM

Thanks to Laura at I'm an Organzing Junkie I am now addicted to baskets. Tonight I went shopping at Dollarama and bought quite a few baskets.

and this is what I did with them:
Stackable baskets for bath toys. The toys use to just sit on the edges of the tub and would fall in while taking a shower... very annoying I must say!!

a basket to hold the several wash clothes. Hopefully this will make more room to put towels in the cupboard.
The grey basket is new to hold extra sauces from drive-thrus. The other baskets hold drink mixes, snacks and seasoning packages.
baskets in a drawer below DS's bed to hold his underwear and socks

basket to hold DH's socks in the cupboard. They use to be all just thrown there in the corner of the cupboard.
I feel so good now that I've found a home for those things.. makes me want to buy more pretty baskets.
if you want to see more uses for baskets, head over to Laura's basket carnival

Today while taking a shower this morning, my son was trying to find his snow pants (not sure why since its summer) and this was the lovely mess I came out to:


It was in need of a deep cleaning anyways, so today was a good day to clean it.

While cleaning it I decluttered:

  • 5 cheap plastic hangers
  • a winter coat I gave to my neighbour
  • 3 pairs of baby winter boats
  • 3 baby winter coats
  • 3 pairs of baby shoes
  • 3 pairs of baby mittens
  • 2 baby winter hats
All the baby things were put in a box for my SIL who is having a boy. I'll be giving them to her next time I see her. I'm just glad they are packed away for now.


And heres an after picture:

It looks a lot better and now I'll be able to find the shoes I want.
What did you tackle today? Thanks for stopping by!!

Monday Muffin Tin Lunch

5 comments Posted by Amanda at 8:53 AM

I decided to join in the fun of Muffin Tin Monday hosted by sycamorestirrings.



Contents: bananas, blueberries, cubed cheese, pickles, cooked ham, & ritz cheese sandwich crackers

I divided the tin in half and doubled each food in order for my boys (3 & 2 yrs) to share the tin. This way they each got the same amounts without fighting over anything. I normally do these type of lunches but just on a plate. I love the look of the muffin tin. I'll be doing this again for sure. It'd be a great snack idea for a playdate too.
