In Honor of My Mom: Organizing in Blue
Six years ago — can it really be that long? — my mom died of pancreatic cancer. And as is my custom, I'm sharing some blue organizing products with you today — in honor of Mom, whose favorite color was blue. And let's start with the Multiples Pencil Holder from Anthropologie.

I think Mom would have liked the ceramic magnets from Gusto Istanbul. This is one of three patterns currently in stock.
I've mentioned Susan Bradley's bookends before, but I hadn't noticed this design — a London typography bookend — until just now.
Swabdesign brings us this clip hook called Pince Alors; it comes in four colors, including blue. The hooks are like oversized clothespins, wall-mounted, with all sorts of potential uses; see the images on the websites for some ideas. [via Shoebox Dwelling]
This garden tote from Loll Designs comes in eight colors besides the lovely blue. [via Better Living Through Design]
And finally, I'm completely enchanted by this hamper from Papa Totoro. [via Apartment Therapy]

Love your traditional blog dedicated to your mom. My first mothers day as a blogger I wrote about my mom too. Love revisiting it! http://www.readyaimorganize.com/blog/2009/05/me/mother-inspires-organization/
Happy Mother's Day!
I always appreciate your blog posts dedicated to your mom! In this one, I especially like the hamper and, of course, the magnets.
Simply beautiful work, Jeri. Your mother would be so proud.
This is such a sweet tribute to your mom. I love the owl hamper
