FiNaLly...GeTtInG ThInGs AcCoMpLiShEd!

I don't know if it's the pregnancy or if it's the fact that Spring is just around the corner but I have been on a dejunking, anti clutter FRENZY! I have been so easily disgusted at the littlest things. My husband laughs at me when I say how gross I feel in our home. He says that I am the biggest paranoid, clean freak he knows! I'll try to take that as a compliment but I'm pretty sure it wasn't one. I haven't posted for awhile because of this Frenzy, but I have accomplished much! Yesterday I cleaned out every drawer in my kitchen and it felt so good to get rid of the unwanted clutter! Here are a few unfinished, much needed projects that I have been able to tackle.

I was really excited to get this one done! It is a Recipe Box... All of the recipes are in a index card format (Thanks to my sister Rebecca and her Convenient, 3x5 formatted recipes!). It makes them easy to access and takes up less room in the kitchen. My other sister Ali made the cute, small magnetic stand, so I can just transfer each recipe over when I need. I was also excited to to get this project done because a whole bunch of my blogging friends are putting together a recipe group! We are going to have a girls night once a month, cook each other a new or favorite recipe and swap them. I am ecstatic to add more YUMMY recipes to my box! If you are at all interested in joining us let me know and I'll fill you in on the when and where!



I put cute scrap booking card stock on the back of each recipe and I plan to laminate each one for a longer lasting recipe!




Now, I know that my pregnancy is to blame for my next accomplished mission. I have the worst memory when I am pregnant and forget dates, birthdays and every thing else that might be important for me to attend. For those of you that know me, know that I have a hard time with clutter. I can't stand things hanging up on my fridge and I especially hate tacky Calendars! Every time I hang one up, I cringe when I walk past it and it ends up in the garbage! I finally made one that works for me. It takes up half the space and I get to decorate it to MY taste! I started it in February and decorate the next month as soon as one is over. I fill in all of my own dates and appointments making them easier to remember. So far it has proven to be a Success and I haven't dry heaved while walking past it, so I guess it's a keeper!





My next one wasn't really a project for me, but I found this cute website ( I would post the link but I can't remember it! Go Figure!!!!) It had so many fun, spring craft ideas. I felt they were perfect for the ladies I visit teach. I hope they thought they were as cute as I did! I'll post the link as soon as I can find it again!


That's all of the pictures I took, but I'm sure that there will be plenty more to come with the mood I have been in lately! I hope I inspire you all to dejunk and get rid of the extra, unwanted clutter in your lives. I promise it will make you feel better and make your home a more enjoyable place to be!
