Organizing a Changing Table

You Don't Exactly Need a Real Changing Table For This Project... Believe Me!

Okay, so long story short, this was a free-standing kitchen cabinet that was passed on to me by my aunt Patty. Now, this was never a kitchen cabinet for me either... I used it to stow away all of my beauty products and make-up. I wish I had a picture, but sadly, I do not. It did it's job and I spent hours a day organizing and re-organizing it differently just cuz' I could. Served me well that ol' kitchen cabinet.

However, today, this free-standing piece is now serving as a full-time changing table for my little three month old niece, Jaylynn— and my make-up and beauty products have now either downsized or have a new home (pssst... downsized ...shhhh).

I used organizing products from the Dollar Tree and Wal-Mart that I already had in my collection of organizing bins. No, I'm not a bin hoarder; they, too, have their own neat stash. So, this project was basically frugal 100%! I'll admit, the current implemented organizing system was created with my sister-in-law and baby in mind, so, as baby grows the system might need a tweak here and there. Therefore, it is not set in stone and it can change at any time and that, my friends, is okay too.

So, my tip for you today:

Look around for a piece of furniture in your home that may soon be serving you as your brand new changing table! It can be a drawer set, a good hip-leveled desk, a medium-sized rectangular table, etc. Just as long the piece is nice and sturdy. If it doesn't have drawers, don't worry! Look at how I organized the bottom part of the changing table; it's really all just about being creative and intuitive to create the perfect system for you.
