m is for makeover...




I got these awesome shelves from my fav store, IKEA thanks to my awesome Mom, TERRI! But they needed a little somem' somem'! I had this little bench (a hand-me-down from my sister :( before she moved FAR AWAY!) so I threw that in there but it needed a little TLC.  I sanded it down, ran to Home Depot found some white spray paint and grabbed some shelving while I was there.  I of course do not own a single power tool...no really not a ONE!! So I batted my eyes at this sweet old man and asked him to cut them down to size for me. (What is that you say? They will cut anything for anyone? I didn't have to waste an eye bat?!? Oh well...)
When we were at Ikea we found the perfect lil' chicky fabric and some cute little paper holders to add some accent colors.
My inspiration came from this cool blog Iheart Organizing. And yes I did make little labels like hers too!! Stay tuned for the toy photo shoot!

i love these boxes...now to find a purpose for them...

See, the potentials coming?!?
Shelves hung...
Bench added and finished...
Stuff added...

Here it is all put together. And some weird kid hanging out!! The mirror still needs to be hung...but I couldn't be happier! Oh yeah and now I need two more red tubes...guess I have to go back to Ikea...BUMMER!
