Busy, Busy, Busy! Organization, Organization, Organization!

The start of a new year means making plans, cleaning, and organization. Pinterest has been a huge help. So many ideas, actually, too many ideas sometimes. I think we are spending too much time on Pinterest, but, we just can't help ourselves. We had a conversation last night during our planning session about how much fun we are having with this ministry, but, there have been times when burnout sets in and ideas come to a stand still. God is so good, he seems to step right in and remind us of why we are doing this ministry and remind us that we need to keep Him the focus and He provides. He is truly blessing us in so many ways. Our ministry keeps growing, kids keep coming, and that is awesome!!!! I thought I would share with you some pictures of our practice room before our first session on Sunday. Everything is so clean and organized, thanks to Angie and Brent!!

This is one of our new rolling storage units that Brent made us. He used some old puppet storage units from years ago and revamped them. Pegboard is on each side and Dollar Tree baskets are tie wrapped to hold small props, and cups are screwed across the top to hold markers and sharpies. We love these so much, he was able to make us two!!!

Here's the side view for you to see.

Look at how nice our markers look.

Close up views of the tie wraps!

Dollar tree is our puppet ministry's best friend.

More Dollar Tree baskets on shelving to hold our paints, brushes, glue guns, and other supplies.

Here's a picture of our second storage unit. This one holds duct tape, another puppet ministry best friend, spray paints, twine, fishing line, scissors, and other supplies.

This is a picture of the other end with some puppet storage. Brent made a "puppet wagon" on wheels and was a life saver on our mission trip this summer.  It even has a wagon handle to pull it. I'll post later about our puppet storage. You can see our clothes rack with large plastic zip bags from Dollar Tree to hold some of our smaller puppets. These are hung with shower hooks.

Our puppet tree that Brent made, too! More on that later.

Angie found some magnetic boards on clearance (yay!!) at Target. Our door now has color. 

I'll post after Sunday's practice and give updates of our organizational meeting. I just wanted to document how nice the room looks even if it's for a short time.

Looking to further the Kingdom!
