Baby's First Canisters

I’ve done it! I’ve gone to and from the Container Store with only a COUPLE extra items (I NEEDED them), and only $16 over my mental budget! (And I can tell right now which of my friends is going, “Uh huh, sure you’re good with money.”) Also, it turns out that I can spend HOURS mind-f*cking containers. I spent a solid hour sprawled out in the aisle, dimensionalizing all the various items I’d need containers for, and of course, wanting a matching set, I had to find a design that not only had all the sizes I needed, but that also didn't make me want to claw my eyes out (read: ‘french curliqued glass jars’). So…I went with the Bee House design. And yes, I know I said I’d sacrifice my need for style in the name of functionality, but these accomplish both. How could I resist? I’m only one woman! And they’re so PRETTY. I know my heart is going to skip a beat every time I reach for golden brown sugar.

Please see below my beautiful acrylic farm. I feel like I planted container seeds and they all came to fruition at once.
