A Thrifty Find & Organizing Tip

Hello everyone! I finally put up an initial decal that I got last year at TJ Maxx.


I wasn’t sure where I was going to put it, but I got tired of it sitting on the floor so I just picked a place LOL!



It's over my Inspiration board which I also gave a light blue wash. I thought that was a good place since the board is all about me!



But my happiest find last month was this fantastic basket at Goodwill. It has wheels!


It’s got a removable liner and wheels!



Have I mentioned it rolls! LOL! Right now I’m keeping my slipcovers for my Parsons Chairs in it.



I know most of you probably think I need something in between the board and the basket.



Well that’s where I usually stack my file boxes. The first one is where we keep all our receipts in alphabetical order. Except Home Depot, Target, and Lowes which get their own folders since we shop there all the time. It makes it easier when you want to return something to have one place to go to for the receipt. Most stores have changed their return policies these days and aren’t quite as lenient as they used to be. You need a receipt to make a return unless you’re happy with a store credit.

The second box is where I keep all the paid bills and that’s organized by month.

So when I need to work on stuff I can just roll my basket over to my desk and file things and use it for another surface. Plus it’s storage! Multi-purpose pieces are so important when you have a house that doesn’t have a lot of built in storage.

Hope you are all having a good week and thanks for stopping by!
