I’m Organizing…in my head

Before the end of the year we will be moving to a larger home. In the meantime, we are busting at the seams in this one. Initially I thought I would wait until we moved before I would start putting some organizational tactics into use but the more I look around this place there is no better time than the present to get things in order…besides it will make it easier when its time to move.

But I don’t wanna…I’ont even know where to start. There is so much unnecessary stuff in here that I have to start somewhere. I have been watching that new show on Style called The Amandas and they have managed to inspire me somewhat. Inspired me to peruse Pinterest and that’s about it.

So my goal this weekend is to attack one project and purchase the materials one project at a time. That stuff is expensive. As much as I would loooooove to hit up the Container Store on some “oh money ain’t a thang” making it rain in exchange for shelving, bookcases and closet organizers, I can’t even make it sprinkle up in that joint.

Here is my first project to tackle.

Let me say. My magazines are an extension of my family and throwing them out is NOT an option. Not.At.ALL #magazinehoarder

To add insult to injury I’ve challenged myself to find solutions at the goodwill or other discount retailers because I’m not sure what the decor will be like in our new home so I would rather not spend a ton right now. I just need to get the job done and then we’ll replace with the fancy stuff when we move. I’ll show you what I come up with next week.

…but if my dolla, dolla, bills y’all were real discretionary I would be on some of this right here…
