Pinterest. How to Make your Stainless Shine. Addition: Hi y'all!
I just have to say WOW, I can't believe the traffic that this post has been getting from pinterest, other bloggers, home improvement sites, and even personal recomendations. Thank you to everyone who has commented or emailed about this post. Organize Your Whole House with One Trip to the Dollar Store. There are any number of excuses I can make for why I haven’t taken the time to organize our house: not enough time to do it all, don’t know where to start, organizational supplies are too expensive, etc.
Dollar store bathroom organizing - The Crazy Craft Lady. I was feeling a little extra OCD the other day as I browsed the aisles of my local dollar store.
I stumbled upon a great selection of organizing stuff – tubs, little bins, etc. Lots of the containers were in teal, and since I have been wanting to incorporate teal as an accent color in the upstairs bathroom… I bought about $20 worth of organizing supplies and went to town! Ok, ok. I cheated a little bit. I bought one item from Michaels – a large basket on sale for $10. I filled the basket with extra towels (while simultaneously freeing up a TON of space in our bathroom closet). Prepare for a gratuitous cute dog picture in 3… 2… 1… Please, someone, explain to me why he was indifferent to all of the organizing. OK, on with the organizing… Next, I tackled the bathroom closet with various bins and baskets. Items like sheets and hand towels went in these cute teal baskets. I found labels here, from Worldlabel.com. Under The Kitchen Sink Organization.
Do you have areas in your home that no matter what you do they seem to just collect clutter?

Built-up lint inside dryer cabinets causes more than 15,000 fires every year.
Lint escapes through tiny gaps around the edges of the dryer drum and falls into the cabinet, especially when the exhaust vent or vent cap is clogged and airflow is restricted. The lint can get ignited by electric heating elements, gas burners or even a spark from the motor, and the flames then travel through the lint-lined exhaust vent. To make sure this doesn't happen in your house, check the exhaust vent and the inside of the cabinet frequently. To clean the exhaust duct, shut off the gas and unplug the dryer, then pull the dryer away from the wall and disconnect the duct from the dryer. Use a brush and a vacuum to remove the lint in the duct. To clean inside the dryer, unplug it and turn off the gas, then open either the top or the front.

"One Good Thing" by Jillee: Homemade "Clorox" Wipes. Today, my journey to find cheaper, natural, and BETTERalternatives to the cleaning supplies I use in my home presented me with a showdown with what has been, up until now, one of my best cleaning allies…Clorox Wipes.
There are a lot of reasons why I liked these little gems. The main reason being that I like being able to grab a cleaning wipe whenever I need one. I don’t want to have to fill a sink or a bucket with water and add cleaning solution to it, and I’m not crazy about spray cleaners. I also have issues with rinsing, dipping and wringing out the same rag over and over (often in the same dirty water) until you are done.
