Toys, Toys, Toys…

Jackson is an only child – but he has enough toys for an army of siblings! (I suppose though, I will soon be adding a bunch of infant toys to our house. But I don’t know where I am going to put them! LOL)

I have tackled this toy cupboard here on Tackle It Tuesday before I think – but it needed to be tackled again! (It is the main toy cupboard in our family room.)

Here is the before:

And here is the after:

It is better – for the moment. (In case you were wondering – those are only some of Jackson’s toys. I hate to admit it, but there are far more in this house!)

  1. My pantry had become…..horrible. I was forced to tackle it bcause I knew I had to make room for all my “4 meals in 4 minutes” meal planning items that I had just received. It was so awesome when it was all done. All my pantry staples are organized in matching containers (thanks Homemade Gourmet), shelves wiped down, LOTS of open cracker bags thrown away…ugh….I tried them, and my 5 kids can actually find things to munch on. YIPEE!

  2. This is my first tackle it tuesday attempt, (although I’ll be tackling on Weds. in the future) and also my first post on a new blog I’m still creating, so everyone please stop by!
    Today I did step two of a much larger re-organizational project that I started Monday night.
    Thank you for doing this! How nice it will be to share kudos with others for doing things that usually go unrewarded!

  8. Mine is going to be Tackle-it Tuesday and Wednesday. Full story at my blog. I’m just taking a little break now, then it’s back to work!!!

  9. Your tackle looks great. Mine is not so impressive, and there are no pictures. I totally forgot it was Tuesday!

  10. I’m just popping in to say Hi and I miss Tackle-It-Tuesday! I haven’t been able to do a tackle in a while — just keeping up with meals, dishes, and laundry and an occasional stab at other things. I have an event coming up next week, and hopefully when that is over, I can get my house back in order. I’ll have a list of tackles waiting for me!

  11. Mine’s up. I need to go throgh our clothes for our upcoming cruise. Not sure I’ll get it done today though. Off to Busch Gardens this afternoon!

  12. Well, my project isn’t finished . . . . but I made a nice start! On to the toys as I paint the girls’ rooms and weed out all the out-grown toys and clothes. Thanks for the inspiration, Nina

  14. Nice job. Once I get toys put up, Rae likes to drag them out. It’s like she rediscovers just what toys she has when I’m putting them away.

  15. This is my first time and I do not have a picture to incorporate in the post, just yet. Only because my Tackle is going to be a weekly purging of books. One book at a time.

  18. Looks good, but I know that it will only last for a short while. As everyone else mentioned, tackling toys for boys can be a full-time job.

    I tackled something personal this week…the scale!
