I dream of custom closets! Preferably, my own!

I live with a teenage girl.  I'm not sure if you know what all comes with a teenage girl, but aside from drama and sports as well as always striving to have perfect hair and makeup, they have stuff.  Loads and loads of stuff. I wasn't quite prepared to have to give up a closet in the office as a spill over, of sorts, but it's happened!  She has everything from clothes and shoes to guinea pig supplies in both of her closets with overflowing closet organizers in each. Have you ever seen the movie Overboard with Kurt Russel and Goldie…

Re-purposed Ecover Bottle for Cloth Wipes Solution! | #clothdiapers @ecoverus #recycle

Many have asked me what I use for my cloth wipes.  In the past, I have used a peri bottle, spray bottle, glass jar, wipes warmer, and a bowl. Any of these WILL work, but here are the things that kept me going right back to plain water and not using my neato wipes solution Peri Bottle:  After a while the pull-open, push-close spout got too gunky, and it wasn't easy to close.  Peri bottles are very flimsy, so I'd always find myself squirting it accidentally, or over squirting.  Also, they're not that big, and I always had to refill…
