Relief

I have been pondering over where our office supplies would go once I used the bedroom closet for our new daughter's clothes and toys. I seriously have been back and forth with ideas. I thought I had decided on an IKEA piece of furniture that would be mounted to the wall so it would not obstruct our floor vent. Then, I thought I would find an antique piece of furniture that was higher off the ground. Who wants to go to sleep at night and look at an ugly piece of furniture with office supplies showing?!?  This had to be a good investment and not a "fixer upper."

Then, today, I went downtown and got more stressed out because I couldn't find exactly what I wanted and even went to Big Lots in search of a cabinet. They had a piece of furniture that would work, but it cost $200! I later found out that they had an identical piece for $100 at Target. Image that!?

Well, I was relaxing in my rocker listening to my hubby read our son bedtime stories and I had a crazy idea! We have a secretary that sits high off the ground that was holding odds and ends not really being too useful sitting in our foyer. I almost jumped up and down at the thought of not having to spend any money and discovering that it was perfect for our room and is great to look at. My husband was happy to see this project come to an end.

I can go to sleep tonight knowing that all our supplies are tucked away behind this beautiful piece of furniture, but very accessible for the family to get the supplies they need in an organized space.

Score for us!!! Good night, from the preggo mama.
