It’s almost like Spring cleaning time. Gotta get the Christmas decor put away and once you do everything else needs dusted, then emptied out… Off to search for a better picture of that shelf with all the aluminum buckets! That looks too neat!!

Went through the dress up station and trimmed the costumes down by probably 1/2 :) At least with kids you HAVE to purge after Christmas to fit their new stuff in.

BC gets a lot of AmEx points on his business card and we have too many kids to travel anywhere good, so we get PB gift cards instead. ;)

I love your shelving- mind sharing where it is from? I’d love to see more of it too!!

That looks like an awesome storage piece on the side…can I see more of it?? (I hope that doesn’t sound too creepy)

I’m on a major purging here, too. It’s not going as fast as my mind would like, unfortunately. (healing from auto accident)

I have tackled the all my christmas bins, garage, studio, long-arm quilting studio (in the garage), kitchen linen cabinet, dining room cabinet, and storage for the baby in the family room.

Now onto dvd organization, boys closets/dressers, pantry/kitchen, and the toy/game room! I REALLY didn’t want ring in the new year again this way, but I just can’t stand it one more minute!!! But it was fun to throw out two huge bags of old, ugly fabric. It was complete fabric murder, but oh-so-satisfactory!!!

We currently have a guest bedroom/workout/sewing/random storage room. Needless to say it could use some help. I will be fully prepared come Spring for my garage sale this year!

My husband the paper-hoarder has been left unattended for too long….. gotta move his crap, which means moving my crap first. crap crap sht crap.

I am finished here!”. Then my Dear Husband says, “What about the closet?” Sigh, I’ll be purging here again. Two days ago I cleared out nearly 25 cookbooks to donate. It appears I am a collector/hoarder of cookbooks since I still have twice that many that I hung onto!! It would probably be easier if I made it a continuous journey instead of just a “January event”. :-)

I use my shoe organizers in my pantry for paper towel BTW. :)

Putting away Christmas decorations really gets me in the mood! This year I sent my boys off to a play date with their dad, and spend 3 hours cleaning out their bedroom and putting away all their new Christmas and birthday gifts. It was heaven! :)

Great idea on the $1 boxes from Lowes too!

Hope you are enjoying it! :) Did it come with a bow? It would be SO COOL to get a present large enough to require a bow the size of a six-year-old. Although, practically speaking, that would be just one more thing to haul out of the house in the January Purge.

Just two days ago I collected 3 large bags of stuff to donate. As I go through the house it amazed me at how much stuff we collect over a years time.

And if it makes you feel better, my name is Laura and I love blue walls. To be precise, Jamaican Aqua, which currently graces no less than three rooms in our 1,000 sq ft home. But in my defense, one of those room is to be repainted.
