Hello pretties,
I hope your weekend was good! We had a very, very light dusting of snow this weekend. That’s really all we can handle without the city shutting completely down. Since it was cold, I stayed in and tackled one of my messes – the closet shelf.

The Mess

The Mess

I found these wire shelf dividers on Beyond the Rack and snagged a couple.

My house was built in 1987 so the closet space is really lacking. I dream of a custom reach-in closet. Like this…

But I digress, this shelf is a catch-all for handbags and other stuff and yeah I pretty much just throw stuff up on that shelf, hence the mess.

And jelly bags, I don’t know why I was holding on to these and I don’t think even Goodwill would want them.

Why, why, why

Why, why, why

But I got it together, the dividers just snapped in and worked perfectly for the task…tah-dah…

That was the shelf, I still need to tackle this other mess, but I don’t know how just yet.

Bows and Bloggers at The Container Store

by 4 Comments

Hello Pretties!

Happy Holidays! Am I excited to tell you about my first Blogger event, “Bows and Bloggers” at The Container Store in Buckhead. Busola over at Tidy-up Gal extended an invite and I happily accepted!

The is a new location and is two stories tall and of course “contains” everything you need for an organized home and life. I could browse the shelves for hours. Upon arrival, I proceeded upstairs and was greeted by a dazzling display of items for your gift wrapping pleasure!

And this isn’t just an aisle with rolls of paper, The Gift Wonderland has everything you need for perfectly pretty gifts and lots of sample packages to spark your creativity.







Our presenters for the evening were Joni and Anne, who were funny and informative. Here are some of the highlights:
