Here’s the thing. I used to be organized. Until I had kids. And, now it seems like we are all on survival mode around here most days. I usually go by the standard of: What can I do to make it look less cluttered and messy in case someone drops by unexpectedly. But, since we moved, I’ve been wanting to get things a LOT more organized.
When, I heard about Kidecals, I checked out their website and was surprised to find several things I not only wanted, but needed. First and foremost were their stickers/signs for keeping people from ringing your doorbell when your baby is asleep. Yes please!! I’ve blogged before about how nap time is crazy sacred around here, and how I pretty much hate anyone that makes a noise anywhere near my home during that special time. Well, the thing is, I had taken to leaving notes on the front door that looked something like this:
My husband hated this particular one. He thought that it was rude (of course, he’s not the one who only gets 1.5 hours of time to himself every day) and that I was taking it too far by saying don’t ring or knock. OK, maybe I was. But, I’m serious about nap time.
The solution? This beauty from Kidecals.
This sticker is waterproof and extremely durable, and much much cuter, don’t you think? I leave it up all day when my husband isn’t around, but on the weekends, he wants it to come down when we aren’t technically napping. (People, you should call first anyway.) So, we’ve taken it down and re-applied a couple of times, and I’m impressed. It is still extremely sticky, and isn’t messing up any paint or anything on the siding of my house. I love it. And, while I really wanted to buy this one that said, “Wake my baby and I will cut you”; I figured my husband definitely wouldn’t allow that one. I think it’s hilariously perfect. Kidecals has a couple of different styles of doorbell stickers, so you should definitely check those out.
I also knew I wanted to give my canisters in my kitchen a facelift. They really are so boring. Especially my cookie jar. This is the before:
And, the after:
Isn’t it so much cuter? I am amazed that these stickers are dishwasher safe too! You can use them on pretty much anything, customize them to the canisters you have in your kitchen, and you don’t have to worry about whether or not kids will mess them up. They won’t. They’re awesome. So, I ordered a set of their pantry labels and I was able to customize them for what I needed!
The last thing I knew I wanted was a recycle sticker for my trashcans in my kitchen. We have two small ones, and everyone that comes over has to ask which one is the recycle. Well, now I can label them easily and it looks official, too.
See, I feel more organized already.
Kidecals really has a TON of great products. You should check them out!! I was really impressed with their food allergy stickers too. My kids have thankfully outgrown their food allergies, but I know how stressful it is to worry all the time about your child being fed something that they shouldn’t have. Kidecals has some awesome stickers for your kids’ stuff so that no one will make the mistake of giving your kid what they are allergic to! And, they even have allergy stickers you can customize. And, get this-you can wash them in the washing machine!

p.s. My pleasure being a loyal follower, I love your blog!
Darn!! Sorry you didn’t use the code. Those are super cute. In fact, I almost ordered those instead of the Chevron ones that I did!!! Love them!
We are identical in our feelings about naps because mine only naps an hr and half too at most and that time is absolutely sacred!
I love the recycling decals! Very cute.
Tell JD he needs to chill…he has no clue how sacred nap time is and that awesome sticker should never come down! 🙂 Need code please…love the stickers!!
