Clutter Bug

I told my husband last winter that if I had to spend one.more.winter. in this apartment, I was afraid I would lose my mind. Well, it is December and guess what? We are still in this apartment. So, I am decluttering, cleaning, organizing everything I possibly can to make it feel homier and bigger. I have taken stock of what we have and have decided to part with what we don't need. I am a pack rat. I admit it. EVERYTHING has sentimental value to me and I have a hard time letting things go. But I need to change. We are running out of room. And honestly I don't need all of the stuff I hang on to. I know that. I am trying to keep the things I love, and find more multipurpose items/furniture that can be beautiful and functional (eh hem- hide crap). Creative ways to store the valuable, precious treasures but still give a clutter-free look.


I found this desk/console in Pottery Barn. LOVE it! Multi-purpose for sure. Could be a console, a dining room buffet, a desk, a sofa table, etc. Now that is some piece of furniture. Price tag? Not in my budget. So- what is a girl to do? I emailed the picture with the exact dimensions I wanted to my Dad and asked him to make it!! We'll see if Santa puts it under the tree or not!! LOL



I had better get back to work! I am trying to get ready to put up the Christmas decorations too! My husband says he doesn't care what I do as long as I don't spend any money and he doesn't have to help! HA!! I love him. ;)

I hope to be back on Monday to show of my decorations!

Blessings,
Heather:)
