Organized School Dresser

Well, it is about time I tackled this one! Some how the school area had migrated to my office area and what was left behind is a disaster!! The children brought me what I needed and got into things that they shouldn't etc and this is what you get! I have all the befores and afters below:

These are the cupboards, I didn't really have a specific way to be here, just things put in here:



It may not look WAY different, but there is more organization to it none-the-less...I took out all the school books that won't be used for some time to make more room, the top shelf is full of books that we use daily, the second shelf are workbooks that I make copies of for daily work, third shelf down is full of different flashcards, math & phonics. The bottom is full of books for crafts, maps, and books that we will start using soon. It feels nice in there now :o)




Can you say "catch all"?? Yep! This is an area of my home that seems to catch EVERYTHING! :o) Time to clean off that dresser and put it to better use!



Here is a view with it all cleaned up! I had also moved it to the other side of the room, that may even help make it not so convenient to drop things off on it!



Top drawer, need I say more?



We have much better use of the top drawer now, the first basket holds different art things (more was added after picture) it holds, glue, paint brushes, markers, etc. Second basket holds more flashcards, all of which need to be organized! Ugh, will definitely way for another tackle!



Second drawer, again, YIKES!!



It really may not *look* much better but things are organized into their own gallon bags and are ready for some major art work!



Third drawer, how do these things happen!!



And here is that same drawer un-junked and tidy!



Definitely making a note to self to add school dresser to my weeklies in order to keep this up! Thanks for stoppin by and seeing my clean up!
