Posted By: Gabe Redondo / Danielle Austin Executive Producer San Antonio Living
If you have kids - you know what it's like to have toys and food scattered from the house to the car. You know what we're talking about, your car is trashed - there are toys all over the tub in the bathroom - and there's popcorn (and other things you can't identify) between the couch cushions We found a producers' pick to solve all three problems.
If you are a busy mom trying to get your life organized and back on track - there is one website you must visit. It's www.thebusywoman.com. This is where we found everything from a tubtime orgaziner to a cooler orgaziner for the car. These are two of my favorites. Thanks to the tubtime organizer, I don't have Matchbox cars and rubber duckies spread from one end of my bathroom to the other. The cooler organizer is a must for those road trips. The top portion will keep everything from toys to maps organzied - while the cooler you can pack with drinks and snacks.
These are only two of the many organizers www.thebusywoman.com has to offer. Here's the best part - most of them are under $20. Here are some of the other organizers we love.
COOLER ORGANIZER $19.99 ENTERTAINMENT ORGANIZER $13.99 CARGO TOTE $19.99
PUFF N STUFF TRASH ORGANIZER $14.99 SOFA ORGANIZER $15.99 TUB ORGANIZER $13.99
