Last week, I got fed up. The mess inside my desk drawer was finally too much. But it was naptime and I couldn't leave the house to gather supplies. So, in a work-with-what-you-have pinch, I created custom-sized, DIY drawer dividers using foam board. Now I'm so much happier when I open my drawer. These DIY drawer dividers are totally customizable, too. They'll fit in any drawer and can have as few or as many compartments as you want.

When we first moved in, I wasn't sure what to do with this big expanse of open wall in our dining room. Now that we've gotten settled in a little bit more, it became clear that I needed more baby-safe display space. So I decided to construct some awesome rustic, yet modern open shelving for this wall. I was inspired by some cool stainless steel modern brackets I found at Ikea. But I decided to DIY the shelves to give them a rustic look.
