New Years Goal

I usually don't make New Years resolutions, but I made one tonight......25 days late. I am going to organize my house, the WHOLE thing. Back yard, garage, kitchen, bedrooms, storage room, craft room, bathroom. Yep, that's my goal. I believe it will be slow going, but it has be done because I am going crazy with all the clutter. The constant mess really wears on me and I get depressed a lot easier. It's hard for me to clean when I feel so overwhelmed, so I don't do anything and it gets worse.
I keep my house fairly clean, but my closest and cupboards are surprisingly messy.
So, here is a small step towards my New Years goal. Joann's has their storage bins 40-50% off. I went to buy some fabric and came out with these 2 little beauties. I do so much sewing and this will go a long way to keeping my home organized.
I put all my bobbins in here with a few other things I use while I am sewing.


A SaWeet thread organizer!


I put them in a little nook on my sewing cabinet.


Then I close the door and no one knows they are hiding;)

Can you be hired? I am in the process of doing the same thing and it is so overwhelming! Of course it doesn't help that I have two wild kids who seem to undo any attempt I make at organizing. Good luck...your house (and self) will feel so good when your are done!

I'm right there with you Brenda! Organizing is such a hassle, but so worth it in the end! I look forward to more good ideas from you, and if I have any brilliant light bulbs go off in my head I'll blog about them too. Good luck!!
