Giveways Galore

There's two giveaways that I need to make sure to mention.

How many of you love jewelry? How about a Valentine Bracelet? I have many bracelets and try to wear at least one daily. Check out Jennifer's blog at Rundpinne & the Romance bracelet and also check out Twisted Sister and check out all of the jewelry they offer.

Now how many of you take a drink to work everyday or grab a travel mug when you're running errands? Over at monogram chick, they have the cutest travel mug with polka dots. Stop by & check out their items. Leave a comment and say you heard about this from me - and if you win, I also win!

On to my most exciting life...today, DH said - "what do you want to do today?" Since it's so cold out, I said we could stay home and organize the closet that's supppose to be the linen closet. (We don't have anything that you would typically find in a linen closet.) He was up for the job and said it would only take 20 minutes and why did I need his help? And my response was that I know I can't throw anything away, I needed him to help me declutter. (20 minutes, seriously? - I told him he might want to try it on his own and see if he thought this would be that easy - he declined.)

I was curious how long it would take to clear out the linen closet so I took a picture of the clock just as we started.


Here's the before - sad but true...




I know, I know - it's bad...



We got everything out and turned my back and Charlie jumped on one of the shelves!!



We filled our kitchen garbage & one large Rubbermaid, I found a Christmas magnet I looked for last month not to mention - I think I have enough Bath & Body Works hand soap and plug ins, probably can stay out of that store for awhile...



Easier on the eyes now..although I do see I need to switch the basket on the bottom shelf to the top since their different..details...and yes, these pictures are blurry - I think it's because I removed so many things - felt good but what if we need some of this stuff later on?





And the best news is..it took 45 minutes!! WOOO HOOOO



As we were sorting through everything, DH said - this probably isn't something to blog about..WHATEVER.

What does this mean? I love to read your blogs about organizing and seeing your beautiful and messy homes and theres a connection?? I leave it at that, wishing everyone a safe week!

You have probably found many other s who have blogged about cleaning pantries and closets. We can get ideas from each other on how to store and organize things. It is a women thing. Right? I did blogged about my pantry not too long ago. I don't know if you have seen that yet.
