Baby Steps to Organizing my Stuff...

I just got out a few things that I want to use as storage.  I figured that if I have a plan set out and places to put things {when I drag them out of the corners of the house} that the process will go smoother than my normal chaos.
My mom-in-law gave me this beauty for Christmas {from Tai-Pan Trading}.  It can hold cards, pictures & just about anything.  I am thinking of putting it here.
I want to make liners for the old footlockers {like from Pottery Barn, click here}.  I got the red and white magazine holders from IKEA for way cheap, I need more!  An old collander holds quite a bit of this and that.  I got the little red organizer at REAL DEALS while visiting my sister in Texas.  I can just go crazy in that store!!  The small wire baskets are from HobLob and I got them for about 50 cents.
I have no idea what this piece of furniture is supposed to be for, but it fits the photo boxes perfectly!
I know that all of this will change about a dozen times before it is workable.  Most of all I hope that I remember where I put everything.
