hello and happy monday! if you know me...you're aware of the fact that i work better under deadlines. so today i am committing myself to a project & telling you all about it so i will be obligated to finish in a timely matter for a reveal!
did you have a fear of a "closet monster" growing up? hiding...lurking in the shadows...waiting. well, i have a closet monster that i have been wanting to face for a LONG time but find it easy to close the curtains and pretend it doesn't exist. my monster is actually a void. a void of organization when i have been blessed with this wonderful MAKE room {click HERE for more a peek} and a large closet to contain my treasures. so i intend on making good use of it now!
i have assembled a little photo collage of what i am up against...so please follow along below won't you? let the numbers lead the way!
#1. i have a vision for a way to hang ribbons so they are not in tippy-toppy piles everywhere in my home. you will just have to check back to see it come to life.
#2. with all good intentions i've amassed a collection of containers + started labeling the contents within. problem is that said containers are scattered between the {3} levels of our home. after up & down all those stairs i usually forget what it was exactly i started out looking for! who needs a stairmaster?
#3. here is my "closet monster". a sad use of space not to mention dark...unorganized...and just not that inspiring. so dark in-fact i even had to use a floor lamp to show ya! with my tool boxes on the floor i have no more excuses!
#4. i bought some inexpensive pine shelves LAST year and painted them white. they have been sitting patiently on the floor since. now where is that motivation to go with that power drill? the motivation now lies within this post!
#5. utter chaos. and not even "controlled" as i like to think some of my hidden stashes are. i really don't even know what has been hiding in this cupboard in my living room. guess i will be surprised all over again!
#6. this innocent looking chest of drawers has a secret. i wish i knew what it was...as again...i have it full of trinkets and supplies, but alas, no labels. i usually end up opening nearly all of them when trying to find what it is that i am sure it contains (or often times doesn't contain)!
so there you have it. the word is out and now i must provide some inspiring AFTER shots. i accept the challenge that i have set upon myself. my mom always tells me to have a plan. plan for today...i will start it first thing tomorrow! :) but she also will tell you to "look out" once i get going!
we will be seeing you soon with some progress...thanks for stopping! (and providing a much needed push to get this project rolling)!
