Fun Spring Project. Growing Herbs!

via
You can't go wrong with growing your own herbs. Many herbs can be grown right on your kitchen window sill. It's so much fun to be able to just snip off what you need for a recipe. Even just a few pots of herbs growing by your back door is convenient enough. Think of it as edible and beautiful not to mention the medicinal benefits.
To get started, buy a small pot of chives, thyme, and oregano. These are three of the easiest to grow and can be used in a lot of your basic recipes. If you can find a lemon thyme, get it. Rub your finger on the leaves and smell. Ahhh wonderful lemon scent. It is wonderful in green beans or a fresh salad.
How neat is this? Grow you herbs in water right in your kitchen! Pricey, but I believe it would pay for itself.

While searching for better ways to organize I found this neat idea. Remember I said I needed forced organization? Well this is a perfect example.
She mounted hooks inside a kitchen cabinet door to hang her measuring cups and spoons. That was a good idea. But what made it great she, added a conversion table. The lettering and numbers were made in vinyl using her Silhouette Studio program. I want one! To learn how to make your own and see her awesome site go to infarrantlycreative.net

How to Build a Closet Organizer

Closet Organizer

After assembling this organizer you'll think you've doubled the size of your closet. The key is efficient, accessible use of space. Instead of the usual single closet pole with a difficult-to-reach shelf, you'll have three poles at appropriate heights for shirts, pants, and coats. Instead of a jumble of shoes in the dark recesses of the floor, your footwear will be neatly stored in an easily accessible rack. At the center of the organizer is a stack of narrow shelves perfect for storing sweaters. There also are divided accessory shelves to the left of the sweater shelves and another shelf over the shirt pole. The organizer shown fits a closet that's 7 feet wide and 8 feet tall.
