Little Tin Cans

I haven't blogged in a while because we have a brand new little blessing in our life! I'd like to introduce Nathaniel James, born December 24, 2010. He is the sweetest little guy, and truly is a gift from God. For the past six months I have been nursing, rocking, cuddling, kissing, playing, singing, and changing his diapers...at all hours of the day and night! Tonight he fell asleep right at his bedtime (what a little angel!) so what should I do with myself? oh yeah, I have a blog! ; )

I completed this project a while ago and it has been a lovely addition to our nursery. I saved four empty formula cans and covered them with pretty scrap booking paper. Then I personalized them with Nathaniel's nick-name, and set them along the back edge of his changing table.

I keep miscellaneous tiny items in them that I will need while bathing and dressing him. Some of the things I keep in them are cotton balls, a baby comb and brush, an extra rattle for him to play while I am changing his diapers, a thermometer and a nasal aspirator.

Reusing empty formula cans was an inexpensive and fun way for me to organize my baby's room. Not only are they pretty and functional, but they also add a nice personalized touch to his nursery, which I love!!

Happy organizing & saving,

Cathy : )
