My Apartment: Organizing the Little Things

I keep all of my cords, chargers, camera and ipod in this box from ikea (I love the heart and gingham):



I have a small dresser/drawer thing (whatever you want to call it) in my entry way. Here's what I keep on top: pink thing to hold my mail/bills/important papers, pink and white container holds my keys (I ALWAYS put my keys in this as soon as I get home so I hopefully won't lose them!), starfish dish for random things (bobby pins, chapstick, etc), and pink bow bucket has my chalk pens for my elephant chalkboard


The photo below is from when I first moved in but this way you can see the dresser:


This bucket holds handtowels and washcloths in my bathroom (Seahorse and name decal from Decal Monograms)


This is on top of my "bar." It has coasters, playing cards, napkin holders, drink umbrellas, napkins, and place cards


When the tray isn't covered you can see this monogram decal:


This is by my phone. I keep scissors and pens in it.


I am crazy about recycling. I keep this big bag by my front door. I put anything that can be recycled into it and then take it out when it gets full.
