Label Making NERD I AM!

I'm stoked! I have been shopping for a new label maker b/c mine quit printing. I've had it for years and LOVE it. I use it for lots of labeling. Right now I'm working on our filing cabinet to get our files up-to-date. Anyhow I put the label maker in a pile to donate b/c it wouldn't print. The label would come out of the machine but there was no text.

So I was shopping for a new one and honestly, I hate to spend the money on something like this all over again. I started googling techie stuff troubleshooting and learned my batteries were flat. There is no ink in these little machines which is the beauty of them. It's a heat thing and my batteries were just flat. The machine wasn't dead but all it took was a change of batteries and my little label maker is back in business. I love the Internet for stuff like this! YESSSSSSSSSSSS I'm that kind of a nerd b/c it made my morning! The Internet saves again! What has the Internet saved you from doing lately?!?!?!

Yes, I know it. My husband confirms it all the time. I am an ORGANIZATION freak! It should be my middle name! Next post, I will show you how I was freaky today, organization-wise. LOL!

 

 

More Space For Spices

Good Morning! Something that needed my attention was our spice cabinet. Spices were EVERYWHERE! Several years ago I redid our spices and organized them in baby jars but the baby jars were small and didn't fit the spices well. Some spices came in such big containers that they didn't fit in the baby jars. I still had spices in containers they came in. Below is a BEFORE picture. My label maker is what was used to make the labels.

Below is the more improved organization of my spices. I found some 8 oz canning jars at Wal-Mart and they seem to fit the spices well. There is plenty of room in the jars. I got a pack of 12 so I've got four more to use but ran out of labels. The labels are removable labels also purchased from Wal-Mart. I was out of ink for the label maker so used these other labels. It works.

The cabinet cleaned up nicely!

Cleaned Out Some Canning Jars - Why? Coming Soon!

Happy Sunday! WHATTTUP? Cleaned out these canning jars and I'll share what I'm doing with them very soon! Until then - Talk Atcha LATER!
