Cables and boxes: fixed!

Welcome to Day #2 of my organizational frenzy!

I did a few things today, including sorting books, vaccuming, and most notably, organizing the cables, cords, and manuals from the various electronics we've accumulated over the years.

Let's just say, my dad is a "we MIGHT need this some day!" type of guy. Which explains every box of every computer, printer, camera, phone, etc of everything we've ever owned. Taking up space, just in case. 


Gosh, what a mess. WELL, I decided to organize and condense in a way that I could go back and find the manual for my laptop, for instance. 

We had two rolling plastic storage carts in the office already that had extra paper, old toys, some random cables, and other things collected over time. I just emptied them out and put them to good use!


Each drawer is grouped by type, as best as I could. I labeled what was in each drawer for easy searching. Granted, they aren't very pretty or decorative like some other bloggers would do, but it's an improvement. I don't think this storage will be permanent either. I just need a way to get everything out of the room so we can paint!


Inside the drawers, the items are grouped into plastic baggies, or in some cases, the boxes they came in. It makes it easy to grab all the information on my mom's Toshiba at once; the manual, warranty, installation disks, etc. 

I filled up two rolling carts and I THINK I got all of it! I'm pretty pleased.
