for mom

I know I'm really putting myself out there to post this on the ol' blog -- but mom -- look at my spring-cleaning efforts -- it's a need I have (to report it to you?) Here's the pantry. The space is not much to work with and pictures really don't do it justice. But it's organized. And I know where everything is. (and for those of you nosies that click to enlarge, we do eat more than just chili and tomatoes -- there's another deeper pantry with more selection.) then there's the playroom -- if I was cool like "miss" Janette I'd get a label maker and go to town -- maybe when the kids can read... (ps: I didn't keep any toys that didn't have a "category")
this one may look like a "before" picture -- but, you don't even wanna see the "before"... and the doors shut... (I believe the space is "maximized" errr... ya)


just thought you might like to see your quilt... (Max loves it now - once he gets attatched there's no turnin back.)

and last, but definately MOST (time spent on cleaning-out): the office closet. don't tell anyone but sometimes I go in there and just open the closet and look.

oh wait, that wasn't the last! This (my desk) may not look way organized like the Pottery Barn mags, but it's very functional. I may even scrapbook with everything at my fingertips like it is (that's the plan, anyway.)
