Baskets Are A Girl's Best Friend!

I know that is not how the phrase goes, but in this instance it could not be more true... 

Rule #3. BEAUTIFY!

Now that you've chunked (poor phrasing, I know) and sorted, it's time to make a pretty little home for all that stuff.  Let's be honest, does anyone ever really have enough storage space?  And aren't we all jealous of those Pinterest images of built-ins and custom cabinetry... but let's get real.  That's expensive. I know.  I'm dying for built-ins in our bedroom.

There is no point in hiding kid toys or dog toys or everything in-between.  The key is to find affordable solutions that are both functional and nice to see.  Hence, the baskets!  And at the end of the day, it makes clean up a breeze.  


What about all those pictures that don't have a home in an album?  Find a cool box or a large bowl and throw them all in there.  Make it an artsy focal point rather than hiding them in a closet where you will never look at them.  

Have a beautiful serving tray that is taking up too much space in the kitchen?  Than get that bad boy out and hang it on the wall for all to see (and compliment you on your fabulous style).  


Think outside the box.  You love your stuff for a reason so think of a cool way to show it off!

Cheers,
Jessie
