keeping little miss' room organized is always a challenge. kids rooms are by far the worst in regard to organization. what i have found is that everything HAS TO HAVE A PLACE!!! and the kids need to know the place, because the goal is for them to keep the room organized.
re purpose a quilt into a shower curtain
those green shutters have ladybug buttons climbing around the corner
the butterflies were purchased at pier one and they were a rusty brown color. mr. dc helped me paint them before the post-it princess was born.
we use her kitchen to store all kinds of toys that she plays with. everything from my little ponies to her magnetic wooden dolls. i save old baby wipes bins to store all her little toy pieces.
bins are an ideal way to help little ones find a quick place for odds and end toys. not everything will have a place that makes sense. the bins are great for those things.
fluff added by the pip(post-it princess)
this is in the closet. helps with all the papers. i see these things are yard sales all the time. they are great for all areas of the house. especially painted a fun color. i have labeled some of the sections so she knows where to fill certain papers. ex. church, kindergarten, 1st grade, creations, cards, etc.
bought the rack at a thrift shop for 50 cents. a coat of white paint and some pink curling ribbon did wonders.
she scribbles, creates, colors, fluffs, tucks, trims...the girl is a bundle of creative genius. along with that comes the endless sheets of paper, post-its, receipts, stickers all tucked in their "proper" place. you get the picture. deep cleaning the post-it princess' room cannot happen when she is around, so yesterday while she was at school i seized the morning. here are the results.

Hi! I found your blog about 2-3 weeks ago while blog surfing (I stopped because I loved your header--I am mother of 2 little princesses and I am also dedicated to honoring my savior, Jesus!) and I have been stopping back ever since. I just wanted to say that your house is so beautiful and that I am inspired by your creative and beautiful way of organizing. I also love the way you have incorporated scripture. Thanks for sharing - I'm sure I'll be back soon!
thank you amy for those sweet words of encouragement. i am so glad that you are enjoying the dc.
nice blog
