Now, Where did I File that Tapeworm?

It all started a year ago when we replaced the "extra storage cabinet" in our kitchen with this new & more attractive one. The moment we set it in the kitchen I realized those glass doors were not going to hide the clutter of kitchen miscellanea I was busily transferring from the old cabinet to the new... My solution was to house the clutter in a series of tidy storage boxes.

The boxes had little metal frames to display labels hinting at the contents of the boxes. So, I dutifully got to work creating some helpful labels.



Above you can see the result of my endeavors at label making (I take these things very seriously.)

Then I got to work on some older storage boxes tucked into our book shelves...



Now I know where to find those emus!

  1. Would you come and organize my house? Your labels are far more interesting then anything I would come up with AND you seem to know perfectly what things go together in a box. Emus and tattoos... I never knew what to do with mine!

  2. I'd be glad to you give you some helpful hints re: organization... I think I'll next be creating a box for my lost marbles & lost causes, lost senses and lost direction!
