Here's Something Cool
Wow! The crib into a desk is awesome! Never thought of that. I work at a shelter where we have children of all ages. I will totally apply this great idea into my work day! Thanks for sharing!
Pinterest, Consignment Mommies, ohdeedoh, Apartment Therapy... that's how many links you have to go through to get to the original crib/desk post at A Little Learning for Two: http://alittlelearningfortwo.blogspot.com/2011/08/repurposed-cot.html
It stinks that she's getting all this press but it's still the big sites getting the traffic.
Excellent point, Amanda. We generally try to support the direct source, and we've updated the post to link right to A Little Learning for Two and her very awesome idea.
Thanks for sharing our Blog post on your great site, I just found you through my Stats page :-)
And a big thank you to you too Amanda, you just made my week.
