The "Doors" Are Up!

The "doors" are up in Little Lady's room! I haven't completely finished organizing the inside, but I had to share the "doors"! Especially because this is only my second sewing project! I can finally thread a sewing machine without looking at the manual! I'm really happy with the change. It opens up the space and the fabric is so much more fun than white doors!



I was going to buy metal curtain holdbacks with a bejeweled pink piece on the end, but I figured if my little one is going to be playing in this area I will wait until she gets a little bigger so it isn't something she can hit her head on. For now, a simple curtain tie made out of the valance fabric will work. Obviously, the ties are beyond easy to remove if you want to close the curtains so you can't see in the closet.



Here's a closer look at my fabrics. I wish I had a better picture of the pink. It has sparkles all over it!!!



Super simple project! All I did was connect my fabics to the ring clips on a shower bar! The curtains are still cute if this part shows. I just added the valance for more color! Of course, if you don't want this part to show the valance is a perfect choice!



The "Before & After"! I can't wait for all the imaginative play this thing will bring! When Little Lady closes the curtains the inside can be her little house... or it can be a stage... or a little princess tower... "Let your hair down, Rapunzel!"

Closet Clean Up!

As it turns out, I'm not really a fan of sliding closet doors. I don't have a problem with how they look. My issue is the amount of space they waste. There is always one side of the closet you can't get to!


Clearly, this closet was used for storage. The kind of storage where you just throw it in there, shut the door really fast and pray nothing falls. This was fine and dandy before my little one started opening the doors (I mean where else am I supposed to put ALL of her stuff?), but now, I really want to make use of this space and get it organized! First idea, bye-bye doors!! 


This is where we are for now... BUT, I'M NOT DONE! This is just the clean up! I still need to put up my new doors, find a cute shoe organizer and add a couple more things!!

I'm pretty excited about the new cubes with fabric drawers - they store tons of stuff and best of all you can't see it!! Added bonus, I found them at Fry's Market Place where they were on sale $15 cheaper than Target AND the drawers were buy one get one FREE!! You know how I love a good deal!


Stay tuned for the final reveal!!
