    Isobel is going to be amazed at how organized everything is becoming. Just make sure that the laundry room is in PRISTINE condition for her return. 🥰🤣🥰🤣🇨🇦 The episode where she was having a melt down about the laundry room was one of the first videos I ever watched and was hooked. I still go back and watch it. ☺️

    Suggestion: For your DIY cupboard project (which looks FAB!) I suggest assigning sharp items (scissors, etc.) to places closest the edge of the door for easy retrieval, and - lining the bottom of the pocket with a wood scrap to prevent holes developing over time. Or, simply drop a bit of wood on the bottom of each one. One of the handy guys can supply appropriate scraps, I'm sure! I simply used an over-the-door shoe organizer with see-through pockets! BTW, I think the hippo skewer can be used to retrieve olives from a jar at the table. Less "drippy" than a scoop or spoon.

    You’ve inspired me to make some for my cupboards; however, I will be lazier (and as I rent, I have to be careful of not putting holes in the wooden cabinets) and make a very long utensil cloth, draping it over the cabinet door on each side (inside and out) and then sewing pockets accordingly. The weight of the items in the pockets should keep it put and if I get a thin enough of a fabric (probably canvas, because it is accessible, cheap and sturdy), the door will still be able to close. Great job both of you, Stephanie and Philip! 👏🥰
