Kissin' Our Zoo!

Our Stuffed Animals were out of control!! I didn't have any room to store them. They would get dumped out and over flow in any kind of basket. I really wanted to get a net to put them in but they were sold out in Walmart, every time I went. I tried to down size but when I 'd go into pick and choose I couldn't get rid of any of them!


Then I saw The Zoo. It looked so fun and easy and it looked like it saved a lot of room! Too bad it is over $100. I just couldn't afford that kind of money. I thought I could make one! Too bad I am also impatient to wait for Adam to get home from school so I could go shopping. We couldn't afford extra luxuries to make something that glamorous anyways. SO- I started searching my house. I took the books and puzzles out of this shelf and made a new home for them. Then I found some elastic in my sewing kit. I nailed in the elastic to look like bars on to the back of the shelf (that way the front can be used later if I change my mind. It isn't the thickest strongest elastic but it saved SO much room and now we can get down exactly which animal we need to play with and put the rest in the ZOO!
