a thrifty tuesday

even though i have books to read because their library due date is quickly approaching... pages and photos to be designed and crafted for my memory book... laundry piles past the sorted stage and waiting to be washed... a somewhat destroyed bedroom needing attention... i somehow found myself bored today.

a few weeks ago, we had our carpets cleaned and had to pick up everything from the floor. once these piles got picked up though, they never made it back to the floor next to the tv...


their stacks upon the end table have never bothered me, until today. i wanted to do something about them... to get rid of them in some way... and also to get them organized. there was also a bag of wii games just hangin' out on the table... that needed some tlc too. so i ran some errands (most of which were on my to-do list for today) and made a quick stop by a few thrift stores, michaels, and a local hardware store. then once i got home and with my idea in my head, a hammer in one hand and nails in the other, i brought some organization to our collection of dvds, all for under $15.


i'm really glad with how it turned out... pretty head-on to what i was envisioning. i hope to gather a few more fun things to decorate the setup that we've got going on now, and of course there's still plenty of room for more dvds! oh what a wonderful thrifty tuesday!
