Current Shopping Wish List...it's long b/c of all of the reorganization!

So if you are like me there is always a wish list of things that you would buy if you had all of the money in the world.  I try to keep mine pretty attainable.  So here are the things that I really would like to buy for the house right now so that I can finally get it all in order, all painted and all decorated.

You will notice that the majority of the items on my list are pertaining to organization.

First up is my IKEA wish list.  This is the longest by far but you will note that it is all relatively inexpensive and definitely attainable.  $225 total

This shelf is awesome and has that industrious look.  I want one of these for Andrew's room since he has the loft bed in his room I think that it would look great in there and it is so cheap too!  It's just $15!

HYLLIS Shelving unit IKEA Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.

I am hoping to put a white one of these in the closet in Allie and Huxley's room and a black one in the closet that is in Andrew's room.  These are $8 each.
SKUBB Organizer with 5 compartments IKEA Touch-and-close fastening for easy and flexible hanging.

4 x 6 frames (I need 6 sets of these in white and 6 sets of these in black)  They are so affordable at $3/2 pack.

NYTTJA Frame IKEA Front protection in durable plastic; makes the frame safer to use.

5 x 7 frames I want 4 sets of these in white and 4 sets of these in black to hang up pictures throughout the house (Then I just have 8 x 10 frames to find!!)  These are just $4/2 pack

NYTTJA Frame IKEA Front protection in durable plastic; makes the frame safer to use.

Again I want a black one of these for Andrew's closet and a white one of these for Allie and Hux's.  They are just $5 each!

SKUBB Organizer with 9 compartments IKEA Touch-and-close fastening for easy and flexible hanging.

These hooks are so cute.  I want a set of them for the bathroom to hang hand towels on.  I know that they are not the traditional hand towel rack but they are so cute that I would be much happier with them than with the traditional towel rack.  $5!!!

LOGGA Hanger with 3 knobs IKEA

I want a set of these.  I am planning on splitting them up by different color between Allie and Huxley's room and Andrew's room.  I think that they are so cute for $3 for the set of them.


BÄSTIS Hook IKEA Made from soft rubber; no sharp edges to bump against.

I need these shelves for my living room for both corners beside the couch.  I love them and think that they would be a perfect way to be able to display some things and clean off the picture frames from the bookshelf.  Again they are just $15.  I want two of these.

LERBERG Shelf unit IKEA Shelves in different depths. Space for anything from collectables to books.

These hooks are so cute with the owl theme that I have everywhere.  I want two of them so that I can put them in the bathroom upstairs that is going to be the owl bathroom.   They are just $5 each.

VANDRING Knob rack with 2 knobs IKEA Place anywhere you want to be within easy reach for a child.

I love wall pockets.  These are $4 and for Andrew's room.

KUSINER Wall pockets IKEA
and in blue for Huxley's room.  $4 again

KUSINER Wall pockets IKEA

This awesome corner storage for both Andrew and Huxley.  I love it and I love that it has numbers on it.

KUSINER Wall baskets, corner IKEA

This to hang in the bathroom corner by the bathtub so that I can store the bath toys in there.  I know not the traditional bath toy storage but it will help me get more room in my very small bathroom.

IKEA PS FÅNGST Hanging storage/6 compartments IKEA Also suitable for use in the hall, the bathroom etc. Easy to see what's inside through the net.
For Allie and Adeline's room.

Wal Mart Shopping List (even though I despise Wal Mart I am going to get a few things there because they are the most affordable place to go)  :(  Sorry to all of you who hate Wal Mart as much as I do.  $184

I am getting 7 of the over the door shoe pocket storage.  I am going to be purchasing the thicker kind that is made of canvas that WalMart has for $9 a piece for shoes (hanging on the back of our front door, in Andrew's closet, and in Allie and Huxley's closet), then I plan on purchasing some cheap ones that are just $6 a piece (the back of the coat closet for the hats and gloves and winter items, the back of our door for small items that need to be stored, the back of Andrew's other closet for storage, and the back of Allie and Hux's door for toy storage).


Square 8 x 8 frames.  I want 10 of these...(one for one piece of artwork for each of the kids for our wall in the dining room and one for each of their pictures, one for a family picture and one for a picture of Shane and I ).  These are just $13 for 2 online so way more affordable than anywhere else for 8 x 8 square frames. 

I plan on doing one wall in 5 x 7 and 4 x 6 photographs that are black and white in our living room and then one wall that has a picture of each of the kids with a clock stopped on the time that they were born below this (Thanks for the idea Pinterest) and then in the middle the picture of Shane and I with a family picture below it.

I also plan on getting some 8 x 10 frames that are white for the kids' rooms.  I want 8 of these and they are sold at $15.50 for 2 online at Wal Mart so I am sure that this is the best deal that I will be able to find on them.  I do not want to purchase frames that are too cheap!


After all of these things are gotten then I will just have to find the things that I need to be able to decorate with.  There are some decals and some additional pieces that are also available.


Once I have saved and purcahsed these I will be posting information about the different things that I would like to have in addition to these.
