Toy Storage

Toddlers accumulate a lot of toys.  I'm not even sure how we came to inherit so many.  But man, do they take up room!

Not in one spot,

but several spots...

Yikes!  It was overwhelming!  So we decided to do something about it.  We had to move some furniture and Shaun made this storage cubby.  In one day!!  He did a great job!

Fortunately, it accommodates most of the toys very nicely and now Tavin can actually find something and have plenty of room to play!

Way to go Shaun!

Tavin's Room

This is SOOO late, but better late than never right?

Here's the before:

It was quite the mess after a while and really needed a good cleaning!

In transition:

And the after (please ignore the clutter!)!

The monkey that we just HAD to have

Book "rack" that I made.  Turned out so good!

Just a few other things we handmade in the room

The changing table and shelf for diapers (by Shaun)

The mobile

The wall art.  I saw so many things on Etsy that I liked and came to the realization I could do it myself.  So I made the art on the computer, printed it out, and modge-podged it to some scrap board that Shaun cut for me.

There were a few other little projects.  Like a switch plate cover, closet markers, diaper pail liner, burp rags, fitted crib sheet...the list goes on!
