HI! I started listening over the weekend (1.11.20) and highly enjoy the podcast. On this episode about moving with kids I love that you mentioned using different tape to denote the boxes and where they go. We did a move, sans kids at the time, but I used a similar, albeit, more expensive method, where the tape had the name of the room pre-printed and each was a different color. I love that you expanded that and had all sorts of tape options to make the rooms and locations more specific.
Also, in the kitchen I like to use those chalkboard decal labels and the liquid chalk pens. Once a drawer or cupboard has its items I will put the label on it. (items similar to these: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=chalkboard+labels&ref=nb_sb_noss_2) After our first boy I also use these labels on his dresser to denote what is in which drawer. At some point I will be putting them on our own dressers since my husband still does not know which drawer to put socks or underwear, lol. And I used these on baby food containers when we were making our own baby food. In general I love the chalkboard labels for everything.
But love the show and like getting tidbits of info and hacks each episode!
Love this! Thank you, Katherine!
Love those chalkboard labels – thanks for the suggestion and for popping by to comment!
