Continuing on in the storage room...I wish I could say this mess all happened over Christmas, but alas, it didn't. Too many "Oh hell, that birthday party is today?" moments met with too many "That is a helluva deal on a gift bag" moments to create this lovely vignette.
I actually went to Target an purchased a new system to organize it. And that's what is funny. Once I dug in, I realized it wasn't the "system" at all that was the issue. It was me. I was the faulty system. The drawers worked just fine. I cleaned up, organized, tossed broken bags, got rid of the ripped tissue (I know, family, amazing) and put it all back together. Landing here.
Only one more pound down. But hey, paper is light. And I made progress. And I no longer get tissue paper stuck to my foot when I do laundry.
Grand total so far:
121 pounds

Thanks for stopping by my blog. Could you come declutter my house??? LOL!! The first picture reminds me of my office.
Come declutter here to when you're done! haha. Just visiting from blogfrog. Love your blog it looks great!
You inspire me. Thanks for sharing.
Never in a million years would I ever think of putting a picture of my clutter on my blog for anyone and everyone to see, and I did just that. I hope to manage to get more decluttering done.
Thanks!!
I love things to be organized - so I'm loving these posts. You can always get great ideas from seeing what others are doing with all their stuff!
Thanks for checking out my blog and I was glad to see another home that is "lived in"! thanks for posting it, I got a good laugh - until I looked away from my computer (ha) - have fun.
