This is something I've wanted to do for a while. This is a cabinet filled with medicines, vitamins, supplements, essential oils and related items. The kids don't hesitate to climb up and help themselves to Bandaids and whatever else they can get their hands on. Time to lock them up.
Consulting with hubby, we both like the idea of finding a small, locking something-or-other that will fit right into the cabinet. Let's see what I can find.
I am feeling so good about myself! I went online and started to look at locking safes, locking cabinets and locking medicine cabinets. I found many, but few that looked close to what I was looking for. None that were perfect. I told hubby that I thought we'd need to go shopping and actually look at what was available, to be sure we got what we liked. Then I said that perhaps with the huge quantity of stuff we have in our house there might be something we could use. I headed down to the basement. (with 2-year-old in tow =) ) I found this! A picnic case, complete with plates, silverware and napkins. The case has a double zip on it, which means I can lock the zipper pulls together! Perfect! I am very pleased with my ability to rethink and reuse!! And it saves me a trip to the store, which is really a pain with the kids. So here goes....the transfer of the meds.
Transfer complete! I know I'm going to have to pull half of this stuff out every time I want something, but it's worth the peace of mind knowing that my kids won't get into something they shouldn't.
I love my essential oils! =)
This project was like the shower head project. Once I started, it was done very quickly. It's one of those that makes me wonder what took me so long to get started on it. (grin)
