How is the organizing coming along everyone? Are we motivated? Or not so much? I had a burst of energy this weekend (so happy to finally be feeling better!) so I finished two projects and started another one. LOVE productive weekends. It helped that for some reason my kids didn’t have a lot of activities going on Saturday or Sunday (not the norm!) so I was able to stay home, spend time with my family and just chip away at things I’ve been wanting to get done. What I wouldn’t give for more weekends like this one!
The second item on my 2017 “to-organize list” after organizing my girls’ bathroom drawers was my organizing my decor closet. You all know I like to switch my decor around constantly once in a while. :) In our previous house we were tight on space so extra decor I wasn’t using at the moment was stored anywhere I could find room like in my master closet and in my laundry room cupboards. (Both of those are past organizing posts if you are looking for more ideas!) When we designed our new home I knew I wanted a closet just for home decor. The picture above kind of shows where this closet is located in my house. Walk in our front door (looking into our formal living room), hang a left and go around the corner. My architect tried to talk me into making this just a coat closet. It’s close to the front door and he kept trying to convince me I would want more room to hang people’s coats if we were entertaining.
Nope. I knew that would be the case maybe twice a year. There are only a few months people can even wear coats in San Diego! I stayed strong and convinced him I needed a bigger closet, more shelves and less coat space. So happy I did!
