Refresh and Reorganize!

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday! Everything is just about back to normal around here. I was a little under the weather last week but, now I'm finally getting all the Christmas decor packed away until next year, and doing a little cleaning and reorganizing along the way. I thought it would feel good to start the new year (and new decade!) with cleaner closets, drawers and cabinets. I'm not done, mind you! I've just gotten a good start.

I've also been sewing and trying to restock my Etsy shop after the holiday shopping, so I started with some craft reorganizing.

I started with my craft closet and sewing cabinet, organizing thread, sweaters and fabric by color. Now I've moved on to some filing of paperwork and magazines that I had put off far too long. Our home office is starting to look better and I can use the desk top again!

Next I need to work on my clothes closet. It will be great to start out the new year refreshed and reorganized. I found great organizing tips and solutions at MarthaStewart.com/organizing. You can even sign up for an organizing tip-of-the-day!

I posted embarrassing pics on my blog of my sewing room! I struggle with organization so I admire anyone who can get it done!
