Pretty Lil Things

let just cut the chase my make up storage SUCKED it was super embarrassing to look at and very stressful to go through. I lost alot of stuff and it was dirty and the cats knocked over my stuff all the time so my products were getting broken left and right.

I give you my before:

How I found anything in all that mess is unknown to me cause that is just a straight mess. I found  so much lost and forgotten crap it is unreal.

so when we got the tall dresser I figured dear hubby had over purchased furniture little did I know that he had organization up his sleeve, and if anyone was wondering we have the HOPEN series, we just changed our hardware on it to make it our own.

  one drawer changed my world:

 okay before I offer this peak, please refrain from all the lectures on my cosmetics, I dont really care I like what I like and thats all, and a precaution I am not going to show the entire drawer.

the drawers are gorgeous and deep and they spread across 3.5 ft and are 2 ft deep all of my cosmetics fit in beautifully, and they are all held together in a nice organized space with awesome 1.09 bins from wally-world. I literally can now open a drawer and see everything in  a pretty lil spot. its awesome sheer awesomeness. This morning I did a trial run and having everything in one space shaved literally 13 minutes off my daily routine. Freaken amazing!

Sloth and Organization

Man why are the days already flying by? I feel guilty for feeling so whiney and tired cause I don't Have a physically demanding job, I have no kids, and I haven't been exercising. My job right now is a bit mentally pressing but nothing that should be causing me to come home and be asleep by five in the afternoon for nap time. I should probably take more vitamins and start walking again to get the blood circulating.

Uh will the waiting ever end on this tax return so i got my forms in from school filed and might I say this is the longest 8-15 business days EVER. Okay it hasn't even been 8 business days, but geeezzzeeee I have dressers to purchase! A house to organize.

Now I dont normally post photos on here but I cant wait to do a before and after of all my organizing is complete. Looking at my fantabolous 80's patterned covered dining room chairs the fabric has really grown on me. I think the venture that I am going to take on this is to paint the chairs and the table I am feeling a slate grey coming. Then my most exciting reuse. As many know I was having a dresser issues, but thanks to my daddy dearest he has fixed this lil issue to wear the dresser is useable for storage, I am talking where you only open it every so often kinda storage. I am going to prime and paint the old dresser a shade bluer and then use this for all of my dining storage. Linens, our fine silverware, my gigantic serving platter that I do not have room for. I am so elated. I may just do a kitchen photo tour to show why I am searching for additional storage, and maybe you will understand that we are slightly spaced challenged.

Okay toodles for now, I have a few more post to pound out, and a house to clean.

Until then
