Projects

I guess you could say I am on a roll here!!!  After I distressed the chair Monday(see yesterday's post)I got busy going through the house deciding what I would do next.

It is so HOT right now.
We are on day 25 or so of our temps being 100 degrees or higher.......IN A ROW!!!  
No relief in the very near future either.  I am stuck inside most of the day so why not get some stuff done around here!

I decided I would come up with a projects list and work from that.  Now lets get busy!!!!

#One
The first one I tackled was cleaning the school closet. Oh my stars this thing was a mess.
I sometimes use it for a catch-all and just throw stuff in there since we have been out of school.




Yesterday I decided enough is enough!!  It was past time to clean it out!!!  So I got after it and spent a good 3 hours clearing this junky closet.  I got so excited cleaning and organizing!!!  It really had me in the school mood.

So I stopped what I was doing and ordered the boys' phonics curriculum. 

And then got really crazy and made the school closet a education/craft closet!  Now everything I will ever need for education or FUN crafts is all in one spot!!!!

And here is the organized closet..................much neater!!!

Everything has a home!  A place easy for me to find anything I might need.  And instead of digging around and under stuff it is all right here.

I love my green fabric storage boxes.  The plastic drawers......not so much, but they work.  A school closet has to be functional and for whatever reason the boys like the "little" drawers.

Closet is ready for school to start.  And I am happy with the end result.  Now to move on to the next project!!

I have a list!  I'll share more tomorrow.

Now you are reminding me I need to start thinking about school more and getting ready. I have loved being lazy and not thinking about lesson plans or anything. I guess I need to start getting my self in gear huh? :>

Looks awesome! I just love organizing and that satisfaction when your all done. School is just around the corner. SuMmEr is flying by. We are finally getting some heat here - about 80 degrees. Wish we could trade weather for a week:)
Happy Projects, Kelsey
