Call me crazy, but I vacuum everyday. I am constantly going through closets and filling bags for goodwill. And lists, I'm always making lists or filling out calendars and
trying to stay organized. But, there are two times a year when I do major cleaning and literally go through the entire house and get rid of things we don't need. I truly feel that having too much clutter and junk in my home weighs down my spirit. After a good clean out I feel I can breathe again! There is one blog in particular I love getting tips and ideas on organization from:
Now Following...
From storage, to pantry's, to printables, this girl has it all to get you organized and ready for the coming season.
Jen is a stay at home mom to 3 handsome little boys and has made it a point to keep her life organized so that she can spend as much time with her family as possible.
" I also read somewhere that for every minute invested in getting organized, an hour is earned."-Jen.
And I believe it!
If you share in her love of organization like I do, check out her blog and utilize her talents. Spend more time with your family, and less time looking for "stuff"!
Obsessed much? Why yes, I am. I have just come across an HGTV show called Fixer Upper. Texas power couple Chip and Joanna Gaines have been renovating homes for more than 12 years and have keen eye for finding homes with that southern charm potential. They just need a little help getting there. Clients are given an option of 3 different houses to choose from and once a decision has been made, The Gaines, get to work taking it from drab to fab! Not only do they have this fantastic T.V. show, but they also have a successful boutique, Magnolia Market, real estate company, Magnolia Realty, and Magnolia Villas, their very own homes. One more thing I absolutely adore about the Gaines family, they have FOUR children! Proof that mom's rock! You can be family oriented and successful. Even cuter, they let their kids come along and help them with the rehabs and decorating. Way to give them that warm, fuzzy feeling of accomplishment, when you finally get to stand back and admire what you have created, early on in life! So if you love family oriented design... Tune in tonight! New episodes are Thursdays 9pm/8pm Central and if you switch over to HGTV a couple of hours earlier (that is if your T.V. isn't permanently on this channel like mine is) you can even catch some of the previous episodes. You'll fall in love too, promise.
