Projects Coming Soon!

I know I have slacked on the craft projects lately! I do have some in the works, and will be posting soon! I do have some good excuses though. I have been trying to get organized and doing the daily challenges with A Bowl Full of Lemons, and my other excuse is:

I'm expecting Baby #2! 

So, with trying to get organized and feeling icky from the pregnancy, I haven't done a lot. However, the morning sickness seems to be going away, and I hope to be getting back to doing lots of crafts soon! Along with trying to get ready for this baby. :)

New Weekly Challenges!

A Bowl Full of Lemons is doing weekly challenges now!

Day 17-Mail Organization

For a long time, our mail would go pretty much wherever we put it. Sometimes on the computer, sometimes on the table. So, I made this mail box to help contain it, and so I could find the mail.

Here is the before: I haven't sorted through the mail in a few days

 Here is the after: Nice and clean. I sorted through the mail and filed what needed to be filed, and through out the junk mail.

Day 16-Fridge

So, today was the fridge. This was probably long overdue. I've never really pulled the shelves off before to clean it, but I did this time. In doing so, I realized the bottom piece on my fridge has never been in the right spot. I just thought my fridge was different to have the bottom drawers open a little. Come to find out, they actually close all the way!

Here is the door before:

 Here is the fridge before:

 Here is the door after: I tried to put like things together.

 Here is the main part of the fridge after: I put all the cheese in one container, and in the other container I put sandwich meats, pickles and jams.

And the drawers are actually closed! :)

Day 15-Medicine

I already went through all my medicine when I did the spice cabinet, so today I worked in the bathroom.

Here is the top drawer before:

 Middle drawer before:

 Bottom drawer before: (technically my daughter emptied this out for me a couple days ago)

 Top drawer after:

 Middle drawer after:

 Bottom drawer after: EMPTY (ok, lets face it, whatever I put in here my daughter will pull out anyway, so for now, it's just going to be empty.)

Day 14-Under the Bathroom Sink

I figured this one was coming, so I've been holding off on doing it until now. It wasn't too bad, but there was stuff under there that I didn't need. Sorry, they aren't very good pictures.

Here is the before:

 Here is the after:

Day 13-Medicine Cabinet

I pretty much took care of the medicine cabinet when I did my spices.I thought about taking the day off, but decided I really shouldn't. I have so much to organize in my house! Pretty much the whole house needs to be done, except for what we've done in the challenges. I know the challenge had said we should do drawers in the bathroom, but I decided to do parts of my kitchen. I really want my kitchen to be organized. I'm tired of searching for things. Now if only I can get my husband to help keep it that way and not just put stuff anywhere. :)

Here is my cooking utensil drawer before:

 Here is the measuring cup/spoon drawer before:

 Here is another drawer with different things before:

 Here is the other drawer after.

 Here is one of my cupboards before:

 Here is another cupboard before:

 Here is the first cupboard after: The purple container has drink mixes that you put in your water. I hated having a bunch of opened boxes of different kinds so I just combined them.

 Here is the other cupboard after: It's now more just baking stuff and other goodies.
