My life in a nutshell: simple storage solutions

I was cleaning, rearranging, putting away groceries yesterday, when I thought I would share some of my cheap diy ideas.

First a changing table. I'm not a fan of changing tables, the only reason I used one this time with Devlin was because I didn't know how my dog Romeo would react to him. I couldn't justify spending a couple hundred dollars on a changing table I would use for a short period of time so I got creative.
I used a sturdy plastic (dresser?) with a changing table mattress. Before I ever laid D.J. on it I sat my 24 pound dog up on top where he promptly laid down and went to sleep, not to mention my two cats who slept on it together before D.J. was born.

Right Drawer. Where I stored diapers.

Left drawer. Where I kept a couple of receiving blankets from the hospital, diaper rash cream, extra wipes, and his grooming kit.

Middle drawer. Where I kept burp cloths, and receiving blankets.

Bottom drawer. Where I kept extra blankets.

So that was my changing table. I have changed things around now, the baby trash can with lid still lives in our room, the mattress is now on my bed (he likes laying on it), and the plastic dresser is now in my eldest sons room.

Second thing is our snack holder. I have only one cabinet in my kitchen for food. so I use plastic containers to hold our snacks on top of the fridge.

These are the three containers that sit on my fridge.

The top two are filled with goldfish, and hot crackers. While I could have found a spot for them in our cabinet, my eldest still forgets to close them up and then they go stale. This makes it easier on him and my pocketbook.
