Organizing ----- Repurposed Organizers

Today I am sharing some ideas for repurposing furnishings into orgainizers.

From Memories on Clover Lane is a dresser repurposed into toy storage.    This would work great in a kitchen,  too.

Here is a nifty use for wire magazine racks.    Attach to the wall to store fruit and vegetables.

This is another nifty idea from A Nest for All Seasons. Turn the back of a chair into a towel rack.   

Thanks for visiting today.
