A place for everything and everything in its place is a beautiful thing. We planned a massive part of the basement space to serve as a master storage area. Mike built sturdy shelves to house my favorite clear plastic boxes. Just yesterday I was sharing "moving tips" with my daughter. Top two tips were 1.) purchase lots and lots and lots of clear plastic boxes. First you use them to move stuff in, then you use them for storage. Key word : clear. And 2.) purchase a box or three of packing paper from a U-Haul Store. The paper is thick, clean and easy to manage.
I guess seeing the storeroom with the boxes finally unpacked and off the floor made me think of moving... being behind us!
Martha Stewart has really cute labels at Staples. Matching labels will make you feel more organized - and that is a good thing.
Have you seen our little guest room right off the storeroom in the basement? Having a second official guest room has already proved to be a real blessing. We were tickled when recent guests said they loved it because it felt like their former little New York City apartment.
