Ten Minute or Less Projects

I have a lot of organization stuff that only took a few minutes to do and don't need a whole blog to explain or show.  Plus if I took pictures of the steps, it would be terribly boring.

The first is a new way to store pots.  I love the hanging pot holders.  But we have a false ceiling in our kitchen and it is long and narrow, so it wouldn't look right anyway.  I was shopping and saw the shower hooks first and thought, "that will hold pans".  Then I found the shower stall tension rod and it all came together.  It took just a minute or two to install, thanks to my husband.  And after holding one pan for 24 hours, I trusted it to hold all of them.  It has now held a week.




This was on Pinterest and was as easy as buying a hanging shoe rack to hold cleaning supplies.  The door to our broom closet is small, so my brilliant husband just folded it till it fit.  Super space and now under the sink is clear for other things.



Deep shelves under counters are a pain.  It is great for storage but almost impossible to get in the back.  I had cleaned out some laundry baskets and thought it might fit.  It did and I can now hold lots of things.  I just pull it out and access is great.



Here is a cabinet for our medicine.  We'd had a pile of medicine on the counter.  You aren't supposed to store it in the bathroom, so we had it in the kitchen.  But the pile was icky and lots of junk piled up.  We got this bathroom cabinet and John put it together.  It took more than ten minutes, but was worth it.  Now it is totally organized and looks great on the counter.



Now here are a few pictures for the next project.  I want to put a picture in the laundry room and this one about fits my opinion  on laundry in general.  Just need a frame.  I will be cruising thrift stores and clearance racks for cheap ones.



I am working on art in the bar area.  I have my rakes to make my wine glass rack.  I have family photos up behind it now, but am thinking of moving them to my staircase.



I think I am going to do famous people drinking.  Like Bogie and Bacall.


And Sinatra.



I have a long weekend. We will see what happens.
