You know last year I started really de-cluttering our house. With 3 boys we have tons of boy toys and it seems like we buy more and don’t get rid of any. My biggest challenge was Thing 3’s room.
You can see my pictures and read of my step by step actions here: Too Many Toys, What is a Mom to do! That was a project that took a few days and many hours. I did similar things in Thing 1 and Thing 2’s room. Then before the holidays I did our Library.
Those were all big projects and I don’t have time every week to do things like that. However I did set a goal to Simplify our Belongings in 2011. This will involve getting rid of things and organizing what we keep. I was so excited to see that Organizing Junkie is having a 52 Week of Organizing Challenge. I am going to do it! 🙂
Here was my week 1 project.
Here is the before picture.
It wasn’t pretty!
Sadly, this is usually what our table looks like. It is the dumping ground of our house. I hate it. Every year our goal seems to be – keep the table clean. It never happens.
I started by cleaning the table and then took EVERYTHING off and out of the desk. I got rid of what I didn’t need and organized what I had left. Leaving a clear spot for my computer. Which works great there with my new set up.
Here is the final product with a clean table and a closed desk!
I love it! The first challenge was great,, it took me about an hour. I have made my list of 52 organizing things I want to do this year. Most will probably take less than an hour. But this was a good one to start on, because it made such a big difference and is a space I use daily.
