2013 ~ LOOK WHAT'S GROWING SERIES - CLEANING FLATS, SHELVING FOR SEEDS, TOOLS SHARPENED, BLUEBIRD HOUSES, STOCKED GREENHOUSE & GARDEN BEDS...WHEEEEW!

Today I'm going to combine a bunch of posts in one so that I can catch up on what's happening now.  
I have been taking lots of pictures,
 but I have been so busy getting ready for the growing season that I haven't had time to post them.   
So here goes....

- Cleaning of Gardening Pots & Flats. 
I washed all my garden flats and pots in my kids bath tub...eeeewwww!  It was a MESS!!  I was too lazy to do it last year--Note to self, after plants have been moved into the garden, clean them OUTSIDE..always!!


- Setting up indoor shelving with light for seedlings. 




- Shelves filled with my new growing seedlings!


- Sharpened all of my gardening tools, shears & everything that needed to be sharp!


- I built two Bluebird houses to see if I could get some birds in my garden to eat the bad bugs.  Houses are up....no birds yet!


-I stocked my greenhouse with a few more flats, vermiculite, peat moss, compost, & yes, I course, my PINK HELLO KITTY radio I acquired from my daughter (she doesn't use it anymore).



- started preparing my square foot garden beds for this years crop.

So far this is what I have been up to for the past couple of weeks!  Busy, busy, busy.
Lots happening,  
I hope to be more organized for this years growing season.
Until later!

CUPCAKE WRAPPER STORAGE

HELLO BLOGLAND!! 
 It's been a while since I've posted. 
 But I'm Back!! 
 I have been trying to organizing my life and home since the beginning of the year. 
 I'll be posting more of my organizing projects in the weeks to come. I'm currently working on my pantry at the moment.
I have a ton of cupcake wrappers which I stored in a huge plastic ziplock bag.
(I forgot to take pictures).
So I decided they needed to have a better home.  

So here is my organized 
Cupcake Wrappers!




They store so much better in my pantry now and they don't get squished!!
What do you think?  
Do you have a favorite ways to orgnizing your Wrappers?

And here is the 
AFTER!



The blanket is so amazingly soft!  And yes,  that's the same bunk bed!
I transformed it into a full size bed.

BIG BOY'S BEDROOM REMODEL

Happy Thursday bloggers! 
 I just wanted to share some pictures of my plans while I remodel my Big boy's bedroom. 
 I will post more pictures as I get done.  
He has been living in a little boy's room for so long 
and 
I thought it was due time to match the bedroom to the boy.  
This is what I'm working with.




I have so many plans for this space!! 
 See you soon for more updates!
