I just can't get enough! I am officially your newest devoted follower and I can't wait to read through every post. I am also super obsessed with organizing, and finding fellow organizers whose hearts go pitter patter at the sight of a cute container (The Container Store's my all-time FAV) or discovering a new storage solution/labeling system makes me so giddy! haha, so I'm not the only freak? Already I have determined that we are very alike b/c in your pics I have seen multiple items/decorations etc. that I already own (like the polka dot oven mit, or the chalk label basket from Target to name a few - which btw, found the basket in the outdoor section but I use it to store blankets in my living room ~ LOVE). But I just had to comment on this specific post because it cracks me up. No joke, I saved this EXACT SAME Kleenex box (years ago) simply because it was so cute & I figured I could find a use for it. Since I'm a clean freak, I am all about simplifying and hence don't keep much around unless it has a use/function/meaning, but this is one item that has been sitting in my desk drawer for probably 3 years doing, well, nothing. My hubby has even tried to get me to toss it multiple times, to no avail. But thanks to you, I now have my new remote caddy! :) Just funny b/c here he was thinking I was crazy spending my entire night fully immersed in your blog, but after showing him this, he now understands why! Great minds think alike, right?!<br /><br />Thanks for all the ideas/inspiration!<br />~JulieJuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15067507702825337690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-42689373873157712772012-03-28T13:24:01.800-05:002012-03-28T13:24:01.800-05:00This is a great idea.

The best way we cleaned up the remote clutter...universal remote. Since the Hubby has so many things hooked together, I'd need 4 separate remotes just to watch TV. This not only keeps the remote clutter to a minimum, it also makes turning everything on and off as simple as pressing one button!!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15312269624791588573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-7067495753944432742012-01-04T17:53:02.204-06:002012-01-04T17:53:02.204-06:00I couldn't bear to throw away my Kleenex box e...I couldn't bear to throw away my Kleenex box either so I turned it into a lampshade, hopefully I can find another one to use this idea as well though I am always losing my remotesReGlorifiedhttp://reglorified.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-85780998587564417812011-12-20T14:51:58.834-06:002011-12-20T14:51:58.834-06:00lol i keep it in a diaper caddy along with daipers...lol i keep it in a diaper caddy along with daipers ;)sananoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-81048016150468607762010-04-15T14:54:06.759-05:002010-04-15T14:54:06.759-05:00Hi Life in Rehab!

I fill the bottom of the basket with a holiday thing like plastic eggs, and set the 3 remotes on top. right now, the basket is full of little people, and it is really cute. i'll send you a picture.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06284542068599289410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-32520658076528455042010-04-15T09:02:54.534-05:002010-04-15T09:02:54.534-05:00One more thing: what color green is that on your w...One more thing: what color green is that on your walls?Life in Rehabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11434589062809471487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-91866531334786007782010-04-15T09:02:13.889-05:002010-04-15T09:02:13.889-05:00Okay, the Kleenex box is just too clever.

I really love your blog.<br /><br />I use an upright silverware caddy made of of seagrass and spray painted blue to match the room. The back compartment, which was meant for napkins, holds coasters. It was $0.50 at a yard sale, so I'm okay with the price too.Life in Rehabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11434589062809471487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-17616642803115032182010-04-14T09:49:50.619-05:002010-04-14T09:49:50.619-05:00Thanks Jen!

Wish I could send a pic - Kleenex White back ground with black Pink & turquoise flower designs! My room is black & cream so I use pops of color to change it every few months or so, and am always on the look out for new containers I like! Great for the cordless phones too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
