Label update

Just wanted to post pictures of my organised keys. I added a key label on the name place at the front too.

Here is a better close up.

I realised that we are missing some keys so I will have to get some extras cut. No idea where they have gone.

Then I got a bit carried away and label the shoe cabinets too.

Now the challenge comes in trying to get my husband and kids to use the correct hook and cabinet. Surely if I nag them enough it will happen. Right?

Cheers,

Australia Day Long Weekend

Woo hoo!!  It is Friday afternoon on the eve of a long weekend. What a great feeling.

So what is happening at This Little Yellow House this weekend?

Well this afternoon the engineer and steel guy is coming to inspect the error with the steel beams and hopefully come to an agreement on how to best fix the problem. Fingers crossed it can be fixed very soon. They want us to pay the bill but I don't want to until it is all finished. Comes close to $6000 so I want to be sure it is right first.

Dave is planning to finish the rest of the subfloor and hang and set the last stump so hopefully the rain holds off. Then after that we can start building the walls but I think the surveyor has to inspect the subfloor first so that might be a next week job.

I have to get the kids school gear ready because my eldest starts grade 2 on Wednesday then little Sammy starts Prep the next Monday. I am very excited to have two kids at school this year. Gives me little bit more free time with just Heidi on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

I also want to try out my label maker and make some labels for our key cabinet. Somewhat like these:




This is the key box that we currently have:


I do love it but it needs labels!!!

Organised earrings

I was cleaning my bedroom today as it has been a big mess since we condensed the house to begin the extension and came across an old problem for me, of jewellery storage. My poor dressing table and drawers are littered with little boxes filled with random earring and necklaces with no real home.

So in my typical fashion, I did some Googling and blog searching and came up with a neat little idea that would work for me. I stumbled up this blog called Utterly Organised and saw a cool earring storage trick.



It just so happens that I have a small spot in my wardrobe where this could work. So I strung up a small picture wire with some spare picture hooks and hung up all my dangly earrings.

 

 

This really freed up a lot of space in my little jewellery box which feels great. However, I think for my birthday in March I might have to request a bigger and more organised jewelley box.

 

Cheers,
