I turned to Pinterest for help in finding tags for the baskets in our new homeschool room. Voila! Your project came up, and it is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the inspiration.

Me again! Just wanted to let you know that I will be featuring these at Clean and Scentsible tomorrow. I checked our Michaels for that chalkboard paint color - only a fairly bright blue, green and black. :( I'll have to keep looking! Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!
Jenn :)

Love these, we literally bought baskets like this at the weekend. This is such a great way to label them. Will just have to find similar wooden things over here.

Thank you. :)

Superstore also has matching magazine baskets that are perfect for files. I scored three for a future little organization project..... :)

Very cute (the tags and the Coopster.) I'll have to check Superstore here for the baskets.

Hey Jennifer!

The baskets were all from The Great Canadian Superstore in their home décor section.

The wall was done with a wall stencil from Royal Design Studio! There is NO WAY I would be able to freehand something like that.

:)

Good luck with your chalkboard tags!

Love.Love.Love!!Few questions, first, where'd you get your baskets? Love them! Second, wall is it a scentil or free hand? Love that too! I am so going to Michaels tomorrow (30% day too- woo-woo ;) ) and getting some martha chalkboard paint and labels!! Thanks for the idea!

That crop-o-dile thing sounds awesome!

You've got me curious... how did you end up tying the tags to your baskets???

OMG how did that baby get to 11mths old...seriously time flys. I have the same baskets and made the same type of tags for my baskets in my kitchen. I did have trouble working out how to tie the tags to the baskets but hey...the glue looks good. For anyone else who is into scrapbooking and owns a "crop-a-dile" or it might be called a "crop-o-dile" I used this to make perfect holes in my little bits of wood instead of a drill.......sooo much easier and very accurate just like a hole punch in paper basically.....it looks fantastic in the grey colour.

Hahaha, maybe I'll have to devote a post about that too.

It won't be a post about how my house is so tidy it will be a post about how to strategically take photos around the messes.

Seriously though.... to the right of that bookcase was a pile of diapers that I dumped out of one of the baskets onto the floor because I only had five minutes to take the photos. There was also a pile of baby pajamas and books all over the floor that Cooper emptied while I was doing my "photoshoot". Trust me, there are messes. Many, many messes. :)

Also I would love to know how your house always looks so neat and clean even though you mention messes?? :-). I have two young boys and they keep me hopping and my house is impossible to keep as lovely as yours!! Also I love the arrangement of your living room!!

Thank you so much Carly.

My fingers are crossed that toys will be kept in their place but we all know the likelihood of that!

2013-03-28T21:12:53.553-04:00

Hey Angie!

My list of paint colours is pretty short since the colours I have used are on several rooms!

The living room / dining room / sun room / kitchen / front entry are all painted in Benjamin Moore's Gray Owl but mixed at 1/2 tint.

The master bedroom / Cooper's nursery / upstairs hallway are all painted in Benjamin Moore's Old Prairie.

The striped room is Old Prairie + Camouflage by Benjamin Moore.

The breakfast room and powder room are Seagrass by Para Paints.

I hope that helps and I think you've motivated me to do a post about paint colours. :)

Well, not that much smarter. Coops crawled over and had one of those knots untied in less than a minute.

Babies outsmarting their mamas. Who would've thought?!?

Thanks Paige! P.S. Your name is pretty.

2013-03-28T19:00:31.541-04:00

Super cute! You're much smarter than I am. When my little guy was a baby I put these adorable paper tags on the baskets in his room and as soon as he could crawl he ripped them all off.
