Countertop Water Bucket

Countertop Water Bucket

~Water Bottle Storage~

 

My family and I love room temperature bottled water, but the only place to store it was in the fridge or just sitting on the countertops. I hated walking into the kitchen and seeing water just sitting there, so I bought this cute little water bucket and added vinyl decals to it.

I think it's a cute way to store your room temperature water on top of your counters.

Before & After

I purchased the water bucket at The Home Depot and it holds 10 bottles.

Kids Art Center Tables.

Kids Art Center Tables

Chalkboard Table Top

 For Christmas my daughter wanted an Art Center, but I couldn't find one like I envisioned. I told my father what I had in mind and he was able to create these Art Center Tables for me.

We put the kids Melted Crayon Art above their table.

Each art table has a Chalkboard Table Top that the kids love! Jaxson used a crayola instead of chalk on his table top, but it easily came off with the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser.

Underneath the tables has a shelf to hold coloring books and a storage bin for art supplies.

The art tables has a shelf and cork board to pin up their favorite creations. Eventually, the cork board will cover the whole backing. The store only had 2 and the rolled cork board wasn't thick enough.

I used Jif Peanut Butter jars for some of the art supplies.

Madison has mason jars for her art supplies until we can eat more peanut butter :)

The Chalkboard labels work GREAT!

You can purchase some Chalkboard labels HERE. Leave them as is or cut them in half to get more for your money.  I love them and I will be purchasing more. Instead of using chalk use a chalk marker. It will stay on better with the kids handling them.

I love seeing my kids be creative!

Now, it's time to work on a reading center...  EEEK!! So excited!

Tip: Storing your left over Easter food

Tip for storing your Easter leftovers...

Easter is only a few days away which means you will most likely have left over food. I am so bad about not putting food away, but this year I'm going to create these reuseable freezer labels.

This idea is from Kim Kelly over at Out of Office.

Reuseable Freezer Labels from Out of Office.

Thanks for sharing this idea, Kim! I love it. My freezer is in desperate need of organization, so this is great.

 I can, also, use this idea in many different areas throughout my home, like in my craft room! Instead of using normal labels I can create these. If I ever decide to rearrange everything I can just wipe the label clean and write in the new item I want to put there, instead of replacing every label.

What could you do with this idea?
