I bet you have made a New Year’s resolution to get organized this year, haven’t you? Well, I did to. My goal is to restore order to my home and finances this year. So on Wednesdays, I’m going to share with you what I have done to get closer to my goal.
Pouring over all the Pinterest and blogs about organizing has gotten me both motivated and scared out of my mind! On the one hand, there are awesome sites out there to help you whip your life into a semblance of order and control. But on the other hand, it takes some work to begin to tackle the job of restoring order to your home. It’s scary! Where do you start?
I decided to take action and tackle on thing in my home that has been driving me crazy! The shoes in my closet. I share a closet with my husband and my shoes are on the top shelf. I can’t tell you how many times I have reached up to get a pair and several shoes fall on the top of my head. It doesn’t start my day off well, I can tell you this much. Here’s a look at the BEFORE picture:

You shoes look so nice and neat. And thanks for giving me a blog topic for tomorrow (-;

I have so many of the plastic shoeboxes, but none of them hold shoes. Now there's a novel idea. It would save scrounging in my drawers for the pair I want to wear. I'm determined to get my basement cleaned and organized this year, even if it takes 6 months. Clutter is crowding and defeating.
Love the blog organizer. My friend showed me her blog organizer the other day, so that's on my to-do list this week to be a more focused blogger.

I need this blog organizer! And your closet looks great. I'm highly organized on some things and then it's like Monica's closet on Friends in others. Why is that? Great job, Sherrinda!

LOL, Lisa, that is funny! I confess, I also have plastic shoeboxes that hold craft supplies. They are very handy!

Jessica, whether or not I can stick with the organization remains to be seen. I think it takes soooo much work to get organized, but then it takes discipline to maintain. That is usually where I falter. 😉

You and me both! I was going to do an organizing blog post in a week too! (Can I link to yours 🙂 I just organized my kitchen cupboards, pantry and toy closet and let me tell you, I'm addicted now. Also to Dollar Store plastic containers. They're remarkable! 🙂 I will be incorporating your shoe idea – ingenious! 🙂
