Persistent Assistant


I had to organize this fun little puzzle the other day because there were just too many pieces.


I separated the big words from the little words to make the puzzle more manageable for Lovely. We'll save the bigger words for when she's older.


Don't you just love these quick little organizing projects?

My little helper and I have worked so hard the last couple of days. She has been persistent in her attempts to escape my organizing clutches but she was never able to get very far since she doesn't have a driver's license and her bike has a flat tire.

Our mission is to clean and organize every room in the house and today we worked in my studio. It took us two hours just to finish one corner! It was the corner full of the kid's art supplies and sewing projects and it was a mess.

I'm breathing a sigh of relief as I work in here now. With the worst part behind us we should be able to finish the rest of the room next week but we have to hurry because Persistence cannot wait to get started in the pantry to find out what that funny smell is. You know how seven year olds can be. One minute they're crying because you gave them the wrong color plate and the next minute they're shoving you out of the way at the store so they can get the groceries unloaded and paid for, "Just stand over there out of the way please."

Ok but will you buy me a treat if I'm good?

I'd love for you to share your ideas on organizing the arts and crafts stuff for kids! Tell me more, tell me more!

I want to organize every room in my house too. The problem is that the kids can "de-organize" faster than I can organize!

Great puzzle idea. Do you have any ideas for frame puzzles? Am I using the right term? I mean knob puzzles, or those Melissa & Doug wooden puzzles for example.

Your bags are the BEST! I just love to look at them all stuffed like that. A work of art I tell you!

LOL! You crack me up Lara! I love your little organizing bags too. *I still need to post pictures for you, I haven't forgotten!* We're trying to do one room at a time also before summer is over. Then won't we be excited when we have to do them all over again next year? lol

My favorite are the drawer organizers, they make it so quick and have a nice look about them.

I'm getting the organizing itch again, you always inspire me to scratch it.
