Spring Cleaning :: Dresser

June 6, 2010 By Robyn 4 Comments

The top middle drawer in my dresser has been a catch all for way too long!!

We moved into our house 2 1/2 years ago and it’s never been organized or purged through. SOOO…after much procrastination, I tackled the project.

BEFORE:

Then I took EVERYTHING out and cleaned the nice fabric on the bottom of the drawer.

Then I threw LOTS away, relocated many items, and reorganized the remaining items!

AFTER:

I’ve even managed to keep it this clean for over a month!! He he…I celebrate all milestones.

What cleaning projects have you tackled this Spring?

Happy Cleaning,

Spring Cleaning :: Bathroom

May 9, 2010 By Robyn 5 Comments

The disorder of my bathroom drawers have been driving me bonkers for awhile now, however I hadn’t taken the time to attack the mess until Sunday afternoon!

Before & After of my 3 drawers

They were plum full and highly unorganized!

This particular drawer required a daily stuffing action to close the drawer!

My action steps included having a garbage bag ready and empty one drawer at a time.

Don’t even think about commenting on this gross picture of hair & makeup in the drawer – if you haven’t looked at the bottom of your own drawers… and could eat from them! He he…

Then I cleaned away! The final product was so refreshing!

Clean top drawer

Clean middle drawer – remember this is the one that was stuffed full in a picture above!

Before & After of below my sink!

Have I motivated you yet?? Ha ha…

Happy Cleaning!

Live Inspired,
Robyn

Home Office

March 26, 2010 By Robyn Leave a Comment

I truly love working from my home office. If you love what you do, you never work another day in your life.

Goals of mine have been to improve my time management skills and to keep my office cleaner.

In a perfect world – it would stay this clean. I love coming home to an organized office with a clean desk and floor!

Ha ha!! The reality is – life gets in the way! Yes, to my Type A friends and followers – I tend to fly by the seat of my pants and have a bit of chaos going on in my workspace.

YIKES – it doesn’t take many weeks for my office to return to this state!! I fly in and fly out!! It’s constantly a work in progress.

I love having my office on the main floor. I always dreamed of having a door with glass in it, so I could make calls and smile at John through the glass. I’ve been informed that won’t be happening anytime soon – my office disaster drives John bonkers!
