I have just about all boxes unpacked for the kitchen - after like two months of living here lol And I even have some space to spare.

I have been using them for boxed goods and bagged goods. Some of the drawers stick so it takes all my body weight to open AND close them. lol The worst one is the kids drawer! hahaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14621231092375521848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4332235454173435701.post-56952426468986090712014-09-10T11:35:24.953-07:002014-09-10T11:35:24.953-07:00So far I have managed to get everything to fit wit...So far I have managed to get everything to fit with space to spare!

I have a tall cupboard that holds just specifically those items. <br />I wish I was there having a cold beer and helping you! it would be so fun.<br />yes, I watch too many decorating shows. :)LA Botcharhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09045857399816360885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4332235454173435701.post-40556401413108767892014-08-28T09:00:53.934-07:002014-08-28T09:00:53.934-07:00I love the yellow!

I think I'd use those big huge drawers for canned goods, boxed foods, etc. Hopefully you can find homes for all of what you NEED to keep, and then can get rid of anything that doesn't fit.TaMara Sloanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10712928262166899676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4332235454173435701.post-42591076286051786282014-08-27T18:14:01.623-07:002014-08-27T18:14:01.623-07:00I am not very good with decorating.
