Come On In...Transformation!

I need to start with a THANK YOU to all the crafty bloggers out there! If it wasn't for you, these things would have ended up in the trash or donated...Instead, you inspired me to TRANSFORM them! Do you see that basket at the top? (The boring, dated one...) It was getting ready to head to the dump, but at the last minute, I fished it out of the trash and gave it a second chance at life...
Tin Man thinks I may have had a lobotomy-I am not one to hold on to things. I ABHOR clutter!!! I like order and organization! Mr. Messy and Can't Part With Anything-I mean Tin Man (until he goes on a business trip, and his junk is cleaned out and tossed...by me!) is becoming impressed with the new me-I am keeping things I would usually donate or toss. This basket is one of those things.... .....it was transformed with black spray paint to modernize it, and I love it!!! So easy! So quick! Completed in five minutes!!! Here is its new home:

This is a little "nook" in our Master bedroom. This is where I am writing to you when I post! See the little basket? It now holds my notebook (to write down your blog ideas and recipes!), and some of my oh-so-many books, and stationary! So, Merci, CRAFTY BLOGGERS! This transformation is totally because of all your cool ideas, and inspirations! (I also spray painted the other baskets in the first picture-I just don't know where to put them yet...)
