We have a windowsill right in front of our kitchen sink, which I love. I like being able to look out the window while I wash dishes (no dishwasher at our casa), and it provides precious horizontal space for us. It was cluttered for a long time, and I wanted to try and clean it up. For some reason, clutter affects my brain. Sooo anyway, I saw a blog (forget which one) where they used a soda bottle (pop bottle for you Minnesota peeps) for their dish soap. It was sooper cute. I saw this bottle of lemonade for sale at Aldi (super cheap grocery store chain that we shop at) and thought it would be great for this project. It was around $2.50 I think. I got the top spout at Bed, Bath, and Beyond. I got 10 for $5 and I had a gift card, so it was free.
Speaking of which, if any of you Wausau readers want one, I've got 9 left. A gift from me to you! Just let me know.
And I splurged on my FAVORITE dish soap, 7th Generation lavender and mint. Sounds like kind of a weird combo, but I love it! I love it better in a pretty bottle though.
My attempt to emulate the lady in Proverbs 31:25 in the Bible. "She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come." Laughing at the days to come means to me that I trust God with the days ahead, I enjoy life where I'm at and not worry too much about the future. I hope that this blog with keep me accountable for my life and time at home with baby, keep our friends and family informed of our life, and be an outlet to share my projects I'm doing at home.
This is adorable! What a clever idea.
ReplyDeleteAnd, I'm fairly certain I saw this bottle at our neighborhood Aldis. We love ourselves a little Aldis. =)
I love this! My windowsill is cluttered; I really need to spruce it up.
ReplyDeleteMy kids are much older than your sweet one, but I have thoroughly enjoyed my "tour" of your blog!
