Operation Organize - Bathroom Closet (Nap Time Project)

Finding time to thoroughly clean and organize a house with two small children, is never easy, but today I am going to tackle a very small space in my house that has been scaring me for years. It is not only messy, but it is impossible to ever find anything when it is needed. The space --- The bathroom/linen closet. Before I start I would like to start by describing my house. It is a small ranch style house with a finished basement. The house has 3 small bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (the second was just finished and has no storage), and the usual other rooms. Our bathroom closet is very small and it is a struggle to keep it clean and organized.

So that being said, this is a picture of how the bathroom closet looked this morning. YIKES!!!



I bought some of the fabric crates yesterday at Target ( I found some that were pretty decent in the $2.50 section at the front of the store) Being that they were so inexpensive, it figures that the color selection was horrible, so I went with a simple black and pink. I'm not sure how the hubby is going to like these colors, but for now this will work. I also want to somehow label the boxes.

So I am going to go work on this while my sweet babies sleep, and will post pictures when finished. Wish me luck!!

First Blog

I started thinking about a way to share time savers, activities, projects that might be interested to others, particularly other working parents, trying to find time to squeeze everything in. I don't how this will go of even if I will keep up with it (I'm great about starting but then with the hussle and bussle I lose focus), but we shall see. Please add comments of interest as you see fit. Hopefully this will be useful to someone.
