New Uses for Old Items - Get Organized & Recycle!


In search of a way to save money and make space in my always shrinking home, I found a great article from Real Simple about creative ideas for outgrown or older children's items such as old cowboy boots, a baby changing table, and even outgrown girl's skirts!

Here are a few:



Cowboy Boots: Use these as bookends for your child's bookshelf or really any bookshelf in your home. I'm thinking about painting a pair of my son's little boots light blue or red so they will match with his room.






Diaper Changing Table: Use it to organize gardening tools and supplies in your garage. I think it is also a great place to put baskets and organize all of those books and toys that seem to creep out every day!
