HOW TO ORGANIZE SMALL TOYS

For Christmas, I got my nephew a Snap Circuit Jr.  It is a pretty cool toy that lets the little one conduct electricity based experiments.  It is recommended by The National Parenting Center-Seal of Approval, Dr. Toy 100 Best Children's Products and Dr. Toy Best Educational Products.  Really amazing toy for only $25.  The thing about this toy is that each piece is labeled and each piece is equally important than the other piece.  Translation: You can't lose a piece. Initially, we put the little pieces in a bin, but that didn't work since it meant picking out each piece manually to see the label and it was a bit much of work.

SEWING KIT ORGANIZER


I love this Dumpling Place in Midtown Manhattan named Rickshaw.  I always eat there whenever I'm in the area.  They have these tiny containers that holds the sauces and I took some home and re-purposed them for my sewing kit. They're perfect in holding buttons, pins and little bits and pieces.


UPHOLSTERED STOOLS

Today, I decided to do a simple DIY project.  I have two of these leather bar stools for my kitchen.  It has a very simple design and it's very modern.  I got it when I moved to my apartment 2 years ago, but now I feel its too hard and cold!
