a challenge....

For me! Anyone who knows me knows what a challenge it is for me to stay organized. I have been on a mission for a while now and I am taking baby steps... baby baby steps... to get my life more organized. I have been freecycling some of my clutter. If you have never freecycled, you've gotta check it out! I have been getting rid of household stuff... baby junk and VHS tapes. I am glad to get rid of things and know they are getting use and not going into a landfill.

Recently, I started putting shelves up in my craft room and I am determined to put things away and clear off the counters. I have so much junk that I just am not ready to part with. Storing it all neatly is really becoming a problem. But, I am determined.... so here's the first peek into my mess...
ETA: This very small corner of this room no longer looks like this... It's now covered in halloween projects that are supposed to disappear to school tomorrow with the kids. I am continuing to work on it though...

You consider this a mess? You can actually see your desktop! That's more than I can say for my craft room. I like that you are finding new homes for things instead of tossing them. I'm huge into recycling and reusing too.
