Spent an annoying 2 hours in Michaels Craft store today... I have a project that I want to work on for some Christmas gifts. Well the place was completely changed around since last time I had been there . And for some reason REALLY busy at 1 in the afternoon on a Wednesday.. Anyway I needed 4 items of which apparently were placed in all different areas of the store. Did I mention that you could not find anyone to help you in there ? Well you couldn't. So I proceed to find 3 of the items after an hour and a half. So I go in search of the 4th. Well I finally find the area and they do not have the type of flat sided glass marbles that I needed. I needed clear ones and all they had were colored. Can't do this project without them . So by this time I was frustrated and annoyed to the point I put all the other stuff back..well left it on a front counter .
I guess I will try Joann's I'm not giving up on this yet. Day wasn't totally lost,I did find a really nice bill organizer for my desk that was on sale for half price. Then I had to force myself to get out of there before I bought a ton of baskets at half price also. I LOVE baskets...

Laundry Room Redo Revealed!
I am pretty happy with how this project turned out. My laundry room also must serve as a storage room,pantry,and place to store our file cabinet. When you live in a Condo you have to make do with a limited amount of storage.
The goal was to not spend very much money. I headed off to the Dollar store,Big Lots and K Mart to buy some storage and some baskets. The paint was left over from other projects.
So lets take a look!And I apoligize for the very small pictures. I am really unhappy with the online picture service I am useing at the moment. Not naming any names. But they will not let me save my pics at a normal size.I was able to get some pics at a good size the others are small. SOO hopefully you can still make out the awesomeness of this project!

And a good last shot!
OK,the washer and drayer don't match but thats a whole other story! and the ceiling needs to be put in. But it's afar cry from the dull dank place it used to be. Makes me happy!
The cost was under $100.00.
