In fact, when we started, it wasn’t even the baby’s room, it was just “One of the upstairs bedrooms”.
I kinda got lazy with that, but I did end up finding a good use for it.It’s great to have an easy place to toss all those oddly shaped veggies and stuff.
It keeps them visible and easy to access and they don’t end up as science experiments in the crisper, or taking up the whole bottom shelf.. For the crispers, I just keep large items in there that can’t easily be forgotten: bags of potatoes and bags of milk.On a side note: Why do we still have milk in bags here?.I have some tea towels that I use to keep under any meat that I fear might get leaky and make a weird mess.
I wash them in super hot water when I’m done with them.I was lazy and didn’t put it under the bacon when I bought it and I ended up having to get some disinfectant stuff to wipe that area down..
So that’s really all it takes!
If you’ll do this every week for just three minutes and not leave it for a month at a time, I guarantee you’ll have a much more peaceful relationship with your fridge..When I made these with kids, I would have them cut their strips and cut their petals, and then I would have them come over to the “gluing station” so they could have me glue their flower for them.
I would just ask them if it looked good to them and if they liked how I was rolling the flower as I went and that way they felt like they were still very much involved in the process.As kids get to be older and a little more confident with crafting, you can let them try out using the hot glue with one of the lower temperature glue guns that you can get.
Be careful though because hot glue is still hot glue even if it’s a little less hot!You’ll know when they’re ready to try it out though, you know your kids.
