Procrastination Paid Off

My procrastinating cleaning out the fridge this week had an unexpected pay off.  It got so bad that hubby decided to tackle it on my behalf.  He did a fab job, no wiping down of surfaces took place, but at least all the leftovers which were past 4 days old were thown out and the like food items put with like so that all in all the fridge looks 100% tidier and organised.   It actually shows how little food we have at the moment - yikes!  The cleaning part will have to come a little later, but before our next big shop when it gets filled up again.
The medicine / glassware cabinet has had a quick sort out too.  I have re-housed the medicines in their own storage box on the top shelf of the hutch in the lounge.  It is still a bit of an odd place to store them, but they are at least all together now (separate from the glassware) and still up high out of reach of the kids. There is also a bit more space in the glassware cabinet now which is great as it was  on the full side and the glasses were constantly getting bumped and shuffled around in those mad dashes for the pamol or a band aid.
The hutch is also almost complete (see my pic) and I have to say is it looking much improved.  Still some finishing touches to go, but keen to see how it works and live with it for a while before I make more improvements.  I have sorted bins or sections for craft, journals / scrap books / folders, parenting books / motivation stickers, art work, scrap paper, pens, Coral's treasure box, Coral's reading books, mail-in tray and family medicines.
I have yet to label the bins and I'm still thinking about how I'd like to do this, any suggestions would be welcome.

One thing I have learnt during this process or re-organising is that you have to do what works for you.  It makes sense for me to have a basket with nappies and wipes in the lounge because that is where I change nappies (and I change a lot with twins).  It also makes sense for me to have our hairbrushes and medicines in the lounge as that is where we seem use them.  It may not be conventional but it is how we do things and it is more efficient for me to go with the flow than fight it.
