The Organization Train


My house is a mess! It has always been a mess. My craft closet is the worst! I have decided to hop on the organization train and CLEAN UP! Natalie from The Brocks Rock recommended this website - FLYLADY.COM I signed up yesterday and have already received some "assignments" on how to get started.

I traveled over to The Container Store website and found some items that I need to purchase. There is not a store in Memphis, but I have been to one and it is the best! If there was one I would be there every week. I am one of those people that loves to purchase things to get organized. Now keeping it up is another story!

These are things I need -


Acrylic Shelving



Stacking Baskets

Lined Baskets
This would definitely be a good start to organizing my craft closet!

I have been slacking...

So I haven't posted in a month. I know that is pretty pathetic especially since I had 2 weeks off. But I have been so busy working! My husband and I have been trying to get out of debt and save up for a new roof and some flooring for the upstairs. I have bartended quite a few times during this month including NYE where I end up with alcohol all over my clothes. I could barely move by the time I got home (5am).
I have read a few books over this time which I have really enjoyed.It is just so hard to find an hour or two for myself to sit down and read.
Anyway I have a dilemma. Valentine's Day, my husband's birthday, and our 1st wedding anniversary is coming up soon and is all within one month. I need some ideas on what to get him - especially for the anniversary. Any suggestions?
