March Project: Organize - Erin Barbee

My goal for March was organization. I got lots done but there is still lots to do. I procastinated the kitchen thinking I would granite this month and then do it but that didn't happen yet. Here's a few before and after pictures of what I did do. I'm happy with the things I did accomplish. My master closet hasn't been this organized since we've lived here.

I lost all of my pictures, so I took some quick after pictures tonight. That means these two closets still look good enough that I can share pictures. YEA! I cleaned the toy room and my girls' room but those aren't picture-worthy today. I'll spare you the fabulousness.

Lastly, here's a room I'm pretty proud of. This picture is the before of my front sitting room. It was unused, unloved and boring.

This is the after, although I don't have a picture of the new desk. I love it, it gets used and I think it's beautiful. I had a professional come over and help me move things around. But, I am so happy with the way it looks and she used stuff I had around the house. 

 My music is organized again.

I love organization. But, now I know I also love pretty rooms. If only I could do this by myself in the rest of my house.

My April goal changed a little. My original goal was to pamper myself all month and go on a fun girls' trip, too. It sounded so selfish when I said it that I decided to change it. Plus, the first monday of the month my husband went out of town and I went to get my hair done. Multiple phone calls from my kids convinced me that I couldn't focus on me while my husband was out of town. So, I still went on my trip. And, you will have to wait until next month to hear but I still found a way to help myself without interfering in precious family time.

And for May, my goal is to serve my parents. I don't know what I'm going to do yet but I'm excited to help them. They're not at the age where they need it but it still could be fun if I can do it in a sneaky way.
