Organizing Baby's Toys

Our new bookcase for Baby's room was delivered this week. I had seen one from Land of Nod I really liked, but for around $350 it was definately not going to happen. Then I found a very similar one at Target, except it's only online. I tried to wait until Target offered free shipping, but it's been over two months and it went on sale for $99 so I just went for it. He needs a place for all his toys and books, before this he had one basket for toys and one shelf for his books in the living room. But toys and books have since multiplied and I'd like to keep them semi-contained in his room. You can see the new paint color too! I grabbed a few canvas bins at Walmart for $6 each. Fairly inexpensive and I like that they have little handles and a place for a label. I'm all about labels! I'm hoping to do something sort of creative, maybe using "picture" labels of what's inside. Not sure yet though, for now he just empties baskets anyways!
Baby and I also went to Beverlyl's Fabric today and got fabric for his curtains! Hopefully I can find some time to at least get them started this weekend. On second thought...I still haven't finished the hem on our bedroom curtains. Probably smart if I finished that project before I start a new one!
