First up, we have dress-up storage, made from an old dresser and a curtain tension rod. I've been wanting to do this for a while, but was worried we wouldn't have room for it. Well, the dresser has been sitting in the garage for a few months waiting to be donated, so I thought we'd go for it. We went ahead and put it in her closet since she's so proficient at opening doors now.

I looked for pretty contact paper to line the sides and the bottom, but couldn't find any. I think I might try some fabric instead.
Isabella was very excited to put her dress-up items in here. Now we just need to buy more.

We also painted the ugly brass hardware on all our interior doors. I've always wanted to replace them, but cost really adds up with all of the doors and I've always found better uses for the money. I have no idea if these will hold up well, but it only took one can of primer and one can of oil rubbed bronze spray paint, so I figured it was worth a shot. We had already painted the brass light fixtures to hold us over until we could replace them all. That's the thing about being a homeowner, even when there isn't anything that NEEDS replaced, you can always find something you WANT to replace.
