organizational bliss

I love organization. I love to read about it, figure out ways to do it, and thoroughly enjoy my house being organized. This weekend I felt that inner twitch that says its time to organize something.

I emptied most of the upstairs linen closet and moved the towels, air beds and such into an empty closet in the downstairs bathroom. Then I moved all the games which were in a closet in the playroom into the linen closet and put all our homeschooling stuff into that closet.

I added a bit of sunshine to finish it all. Remember this picture?

Well, I took that as my inspiration and cut lots of circles out of patterned paper and cardstock and put them on the wall. I think it turned out really cute and it makes me happy.

The best part of the day was when Slade came down and exclaimed, "Mom, you made it beautiful! You are so good at making things beautiful!" Aaaww.

That looks great! But do you really have empty closets? That amazes me! Mine are all full and overflowing!

Lindsay~you are amazing! I never get the twitch to organize something, let alone RE-organize something! Next time you get the "twitch" come on over to my house--you won't find any empty closets, but you will find lots to organize and clean and swish and swipe! The room is darling. You ARE good at making things beautiful!

Lindsay,
Those circles are darling, what did you make them out of and how did you attach them to the wall?
