Organizing Your TV Area

Guest post from Mrs. Jenny Musser


The above picture literally makes me cringe!  Is this what it looks like under your TV?  We have a TV console with no storage so I had to find a way to hide all the cords.  


All I did was use a basket with a lid and cut out handles.  This was the perfect thing to use. Now the cords and power strip are hidden away and can not be seen!!    


We have a few remotes as well as a keyboard and mouse that go to a laptop hooked up to our TV. I don't like to have them out so I just keep them in a basket under the coffee table.  Also, I am not one for displaying all our DVD's on a shelf and Reagan was just collecting way too many.  So I threw all the cases away.  Gasp!!  I know!  I put the DVD's in a CD case.  It is so much easier and takes up less space!  I have one for Reagan's and one for Josh's.   

I hope one of these tips will help you get organized!! 

*Organizing DVD's in a CD case is wonderful when going on road trips.  We have a built in DVD player in our van and all our DVD's are in one small container.*
*You can also organize other important CD's in those cases.  It keeps your office CD's in one place and handy to find when needed.*
*The basket idea is perfect for an office desk in your home.  No more jumbled cords around your work area! :)*

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure.  100 Days of Joy and Strength.  I was struggling last night.  Darkness seemed to overwhelm me.  The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope."  Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;"  II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.  Do not gloat over me, my enemy!  Though I have fallen, I will rise.  Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light."  Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."...

Ten Tips for Sunday School Teachers

Ideas for Sunday School Teachers: 1.  Write a note to each student and mail it to their home. 2.  Visit the child in his home and bring a small treat. 3.  Make a special treat once a month for your students on Sunday. 4.  Have a Sunday School class activity on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. 5.  Pray for your students. 6.  Have a monthly or quarterly contest for your students.  Include bringing their Bible, saying memory verses, attendance, etc.  Award small prizes. 7.  Have a special craft once a month. 8.  Rev up your teaching time!  Use props such as costumes, pictures, videos.  Make your lesson time come alive.  Teach your lesson 2-3 times during the week out loud – you will be amazed at how you will be able to teach it to your students – not just following the words in the book. 9.  After the lesson, be creative!  Students should not just be sitting and waiting for Sunday School hour ...
