A chip off the old block! Reuse and recycling time.

Good evening all, again, a bend of the knees in a police uniform required!
In answer to your question...yes just a little bit.
And the question......are you mad?!

This is what happens when you have a sick child at home and you should be working, stir crazy just about covers it.  I freely admit that I would make a terrible nurse.  I'm more of a crack on with it till you can't possibly, or die quietly, kind of person.  Still my wee man is a lot better than he was first thing and hopefully with a good nights rest and some more medicine he will be even better tomorrow.
I guess it's that time of year, back to school, germ bombardment!

Back to today and isn't it strange what gets you, dare I say, excited!
I'm going to now come across even weirder, if that is possible?!
I blame Pinterest.
In order to put the finishing touches to my kitchen, I have been looking for crates to put on one wall. Last week hubby was given these for me.

This one is my favourite.

Now all I need is about a dozen of them and I can finally get my finished look in the kitchen.
I haven't been able to get apple crates locally but I think these port cases would work equally as well.
This is the idea I am wanting to try for my wall, for all my cookbooks and jars.

Or something very similar.
I have my reuse, recycle head on!
What do you think?

That's all from me today I best go and put my nurses uniform back on!
