Rolling Your Towels

This week I'm organizing my bathrooms even though I'm suppose to wait till the end of the month to do this. I'm following Clutterbug's calendar for daily cleaning and organizing tips. (Scroll down below to see my post on her calendar.) We are suppose to be organizing our kitchen's this week, but I decided my bathroom needed more work then the kitchen. Her calendar is a great source of motivation to get these things done.

She suggest to roll your towels. It not only fits more but looks nicer when you store them. Just like a spa wouldn't you say?



I've got my towels rolled in a small shelf I put in my bathroom. It fit's nicely in a space next to our laundry hamper. I now have a basket for handtowels, wash cloths on the top shelf. The larger bath size towels fit snug in the spaces below.



It's a start! With so many kids needing a clean towel all the time, here is a perfect solution. I have always kept my clean towels in the bathroom instead of a linen closet. That way I don't have to go far searching for an additional towel. Now they are nice and neat! How do you store your towels?

Spray Paint Project

My old outdoor furniture needed a big make-over. I was tired of looking at it this way. The harsh Winter weather out here left them faded and dull. Instead of buying a new set, I thought I'd try to paint them first. Since I had some time over Spring Break this is one of my projects I was able to get to.

This is what the table looked like in the beginning.



I used this spray paint that's formulated for use on plastic. I needed 4 cans of the paint to get the table & chairs covered. I also recommend getting the handle attachment so you don't kill your fingers on the nozzle of the can.



With a fresh coat of brown spray paint this is how it turned out. TA-DA!




Looks a lot better doesn't it? I think so. I'm planning on spray painting my other plastic chairs around here. I hope they come out just as good.
