One included finding the labels for my black boxes. I put the boxes together when I was pregnant, so I know it's been a while! I do not like my handwriting, so I am not a fan of writing labels, plus, as I said in my previous post, I like to try a system before I make the labels.
I have 6 black boxes by the front door and the contents have not changed since last year. Tuesday night when I couldn't sleep I was trying to remember where I put the labels. Thankfully they were the 2nd place I looked! One project completed.
The other project hasn't been sitting around so long, but about a month. I bought the same boxes from Ikea, but smaller and in white. We have had several recent discussions of where a particular USB stick is, so I thought, "Why not put them all together?"
See this lovely cream jacket? This is it minutes before it was tainted with chocolate from a Belgian waffle...This photo was July 3, 2011-gulp.
I guess in the hustle and bustle of visitors and having a baby I didn't get to the stain. I want to save my jacket, so I bought dye to turn it gray or blue, but thought maybe I can get the spot out. My attempts from yesterday failed. Today is a new idea...rubbing alcohol, since I don't know what hydrogen peroxide is in Dutch :)
It sounds like you're being very productive. I've neglected a pile or two for about six months, so I know how fast time can go before you realize it. At least you're completing your organization projects now and not later. You inspire me.
ReplyDeleteI love organizing! Need to buy some boxes like that for my office space ;)
