Long holiday weekends at our house usually mean a home project or two.
This year we took it easy and did something simple that has been on our To Do list for a very long time.  Here's the problem.  This tv is in our bedroom.  Please note how close this dresser is to the edge of the wall.  This dresser is WAY too big for this spot.  Has been for years.




MONTHS AGO, we decided to bring home a much smaller piece from my husband's stash of furniture at his antiques store to replace it.  Well.  We finally got it done!  The hardest part was finding baskets.  Take a looksee:




These are baskets I found at WalMart.  I know!  WalMart is bad!  I had a very hard time finding anything that would work because the shelves are two different sizes, and taller baskets are better than most of what I found, which are short baskets.  This I also found and really like:

When my husband got a load of these he started humming the theme song from "Deliverance".  His very subtle way of telling me I'm going a little too Granny on him.  But I really love the colors!

So anyway.  The pretty baskets are still sitting in my bedroom, receipt and tags intact.  I'm trying very hard to find a place for them, but you know the rule, if I can't find a use for them, they go.  I give myself a week.

Life with a baske big enough to hide my jammies in is bliss.

Tricky Duck Tip:  Listen to your husband when he starts with the "Deliverance"  theme music.
