That Time I Tried to Get Organized!

Welcome! We have expanded our business to include more home decor pieces, not geared towards kids.  We come to you with a new name.  Though Gourmet Giggles will still exist, it will be a place for us to post children's items.  Come along and check out our new site!  Items for sale to be posted soon.  For now we will share the items we have refinished in an attempt to get our own homes in order.

I bought this magnetic chalk board at our favorite yard sale in Niceville.  It had an oak frame and my son picked out the blue, as it used to be in his room.  But here, with school and now after school activities, mama needed to get organized!  So I mounted it in the laundry room and it is the last thing I see as I leave the house.  The blue actually works in our bright yellow (not painted by me) laundry room!  What a little paint can do to a cheap yard sale item!


 I picked these up on one of my donate trips to our beloved Bargain Box before we moved.  I wasn't supposed to be buying, we were moving!  But I knew these would come in handy one day, if not for me, for someone.  I need a place to put frequently used items in my kitchen (we do not have a junk drawer here - steering clear of the junk drawer).  So here will sit scissors, glue, Markers to be kept out of little hands, etc.  Things I don't want to dig out every day, but want them to be in an organized place.  A little paint, some scrap book paper and tada - boutique organizers!
