The last thing to do in Manga Dork's room (other than find things for the walls) was to post the rules. I think those are reasonable. The consequences of not following the rules...she has to go to bed 30 minutes early. So she can lose up to an hour each day! A 10:00 bedtime is a privilege we negotiated this school year...I prefer 9:00!
The domino effect took over and it caused me to also post this sign on our kitchen counter. This is a big problem area. I even have a hard time...it's just so easy to drop things here.
Because we moved all Manga Dork's things to her room, it left a huge mess in the baby's room. Soooooo....the "domino effect" took over and I cleaned and organized their room. This is one side of the closet. I LOVE Plastic Organizers!
This is the other side of the closet. You even get a glimpse of their Halloween costumes! I need to go shopping for clothes...I have a couple bags for Goodwill and very little for their fall/winter wardrobes.
The toy chest fit perfectly in the closet and I leave this side of the closet door open. I only put items in the chest that are "one piece."
All the toys that are in "pieces" I put on the top shelf of the closet (Pokemon, Little Pet Shops, horse collection, blocks, puzzles, play food/dishes, etc.). I plan to give them one at a time and teach them to clean up before getting something else. Prayers will be needed! LOL!
I also took the bunk beds apart. They loved it! This is the room Manga Dork shared with them. Can you imagine bunk beds and 2 cribs in here! It was packed. Cutie Patootie was glad to graduate from the toddler bed. When I tucked her in bed last night she said, "How you like me bed?" I teared up. So precious.
Now if I can just get them to leave the stuffed animals on this shelf!
Hope everyone is having a great Wednesday!

I love your handwriting. Wish mine was that neat and tidy. Just like your house. M
You are not going to need any project betters soon. Looks like the house is getting better, better, best! M
I too post signs in Countrychick's room.....sometimes they just need a gentle reminder......wish I had been doing the "sign" thing when my son was growing up.....maybe it would have helped the state of his room.
You are one busy lady!!
I need to clean out a few things, but first I must go can up some of my green tomatoes..........
I love it! Great job! I have been trying to be "better" too. I was too embarrassed to post pics of my nasty refrigerator I cleaned Monday. Love this idea.
