shoe closet
i didn't think i could get excited about organizing a shoe closet! A few weeks ago we found really cheap shelves we thought would be perfect to organize our shoe closet. pictures speak louder than words so for all you people out there that love organization...here you go!
BEFORE/IN PROGRESS:
IN PROGRESS:
FINALE! TA DA!
And if you're thinking "how long will that last" (the organization) I'm proud to say 'everything in its place and a place for everything' (martha stewart)...to date, it still looks the same! :)

sambiibiis are in!
sambiibiis are in their new home. Still waiting for the wall(ceiling)paper, and looking around for some shelving or other storage stuff to add in the room. Its not a big room so we'll need to get creative. But they are in and it was nice to finally do some laundry! I never would have thought washer/dryers could be so fascinating! Sambiibiis are very quiet and it was fun to watch the laundry go round and round through the clear front glass. I feel very domesticated and boring writing this but sadly its true!
Anyway, here are some pics!
Here's a video of the bb's and the sambiibiis

getting there...
Last Thursday Tuboo and I sat down and planned out a schedule to complete the Sambiibii Room (Laundry Room). All that we had targeted for this weekend we completed. We washed the walls down, primed the walls, painted and installed the flooring and cut the baseboards to size.

Yup thats Quatchi-Choo again. He's eager to have it all up and running
He quite likes the new room.
We targeted this Thursday to have Sambiibii1 and Sambiibii2 into their new home. We could still get there but there are also a few unknowns. For example, we're not sure what to do with the lighting and we found out the wallpaper for the ceiling will take about 2 weeks to come in. There are some work arounds we can do so just need to do more thinking.
More to come soon...til then...

it all started with a lamp...
and because our washer broke down.
We're getting a new washer/dryer tomorrow and spent the weekend and last 2 days cleaning out the laundry room. Sambiibii1 and Sambiibii2 are arriving tomorrow (my bday present! yay!) but we still have yet to redecorate their new home. We bought paint but we have to prep the walls first. We're also going to put in new flooring and also thinking about doing something different with the ceiling. No chandelier in this room tho! haha!
As for the lamp, we finally found a good lamp for the basement which prompted us to re-think what we are going to do with the rec room/office. So we spent the last week thinkign about and trying to clean up. I ended up painting the furniture in the room b/c it just didn't feel right. Here are some pics:
You can see the lamp in this pic - far corner:
The lamp is very happy and glowy here:
Pic of my 'new' work desk:
clear pic
hazy pic
Thats all for now! The pics were taken right after the paint was dry enough to move the furniture. Still have to put stuff back on the desk and bookcase. I'll try my best to keep the space neat and tidy! :)
p.s. here are some pics of our new friend Quatchi-choo. He's also part of my bday present. Amazingly he bares a startling resemblance to Tuboo! Don't ya think? teehee!
