Now that the Christmas stuff is out of the spare room, Liv and I can start assembling her studio, which will free up a LOT of room in her bedroom. Does your house go through transformations like mine does? When one space isn’t working anymore, we just shift and change and make it into what works for us at the time. I wish I could go with the flow in my everyday life, like I do with shifting my furniture around!
I also replaced another light fixture in my downstairs hallway. 
And that’s what I’ve actually gotten accomplished over the last couple of weeks. I have other projects I’m working on right now, and as soon as I get them completed I’ll show you here!
But its done! Yay! Don’t look at the stairs, just don’t. It’s on the list. 
While I had the paint out, I thought to myself, I should get that small bookcase painted. I had bought it ages, and ages ago. I think I may have paid around $3 for it, more than likely because it looked so bad.
Liv wandered through about the time I started to paint and asked, Don’t you need to clean that thing first? And I told her, This has been cleaned! Pitiful little thing. 
I had the perfect spot for it outside my kitchen where I had been piling my number one “to be read” stack of books, a la Martha Stewart style. It always looks so much better at her house, doesn’t it?
It’s amazing what a coat of paint can do.
I’ve had one hook outside my shower for years now. And I constantly put way too many things on it.
I’ve also had these two cute ostrich head hooks floating around my house for a couple of years now with no real purpose. Now they have a purpose…
And my shower hook isn’t overloaded anymore. This project took approximately 49 seconds to accomplish. Sigh.
My dresser. You’ll have to use your imagination and “see” this poor thing piled as high as the sky with clothes, random bits of things that did not even belong in our bedroom, because either I forgot to take a before or I deleted it by accident. It wasn’t pretty.
I have been resisting doing this project, because I knew I needed to take EVERYTHING out and do a major purge of all the things. I hesitate to do things KonMari style because I get so overwhelmed with how much stuff I still have. And probably do NOT need. But I set aside an entire day and worked drawer by drawer.
I LOVE having my t-shirts folded this way. It’s so easy to see what I have and what I don’t. I’m also going to try this with my pajamas too and I’ll let you know how it goes.
I took out everything, and anything that said NO way am I ever putting you on my body again, went into a bag to dealt with another day. Everything else needed a designated drawer or things like swimsuits that I only wear once a year went into a basket to live on the top shelf of my closet. Why in the world I was letting them take up space in my drawers is beyond my comprehension.
It was a long, tedious day, with many, many breaks for my mental health, but at the end of it all my bed was clear and everything was put away where it belongs. Also yes, that IS another “to be read” pile of books! Which is another project to add to my ever expanding list, because this pile drives me bonkers. It was a great idea at the time, but I constantly knock them off and have to pick them up again.
Another project I need to check with my Mama about. I want to change out the pulls on this dresser, but I don’t know which ones are the originals on this piece. It was my Mama’s Mother’s dresser and it has two different styles of pulls. Wooden ones and metal pulls on the bottom drawer.
A new to us type of Capri sun, Buddy fruit tubes, and green tea for 33 cents. I have learned that if we haven’t tried something before to cautiously only buy one. There is nothing worse than not liking something and having six boxes of it. something we did buy cases of were the veggie Capri Sun. Liv loves those things and so did my niece and nephew while we were on vacation, so that’s something I bought in bulk. They were 99 cents a box!
Bacon bits for Denton and Olivia. I hate these things, but they both LOVE them. Coconut oil to take my makeup off at night, a new to us type of Vienna sausages for Denton to try and kraut for our kraut and weenies.
Velveeta shells and cheese for soup beans night, town house crackers and more maple syrup. We go through a LOT of maple syrup at our house. But we also eat Mrs. Butterworth’s too. Balance right? Haha.
