Yeah, I just pulled a title out of a hat, but any of the above would have worked just as well. I had planned to show you my newest paint victim, but the rain put a damper on my picture taking plans. Hopefully the weather clears up soon so I can get some good shots. Until then, I’m really excited to show you a before and after that is making me smile ear to ear. It’s not a beautiful room transformation, but it is darn pretty if you ask me.
You see, I park in my garage. I’ve been pulling in to this hot mess for months!
Pretending this didn’t exist wasn’t making it go away. Weird huh? So, on Monday I decided to go through the Christmas bins. I wanted to get organized before I start decking the halls. This dusty, hot mess wasn’t exactly putting me in the holiday spirit.
I pulled up my sleeves and got to work. My back hurts and I feel like even after 22 showers I’m still not clean, but all in all it was worth the not-so-fun work.
Do you hear the angels singing?
I realize Martha Stewart would not be impressed, but for me this is darn good!
I organized the junk stuff into departments.
Hopefully, this will help us stay organized. I’ll have to show you where the Christmas decor is being relocated. I decided the garage is probably not the best place to store this stuff since it will probably just get covered in dust again. Right now, it’s sitting in this hallway in the basement.
I’ve got big plans for that unsuspecting closet you see there with the door open!
So, have you done any not-so-fun-and-really-disgusting jobs around your home lately? Oh, just me then. Awesome!
Seriously, I feel like an old lady. I’ve been using icy hot for the last few days. I don’t think Coco Mademoiselle and Icy Hot is a good combo. What do you think?
YES! that IS totalyl awesome and i know how much work that takes to organize all that stuff…. awesome work!
