Don’t you love it when messes like this…

…turn into this?

It all started when Nate asked me to organize a bookshelf he finished building, since he’d made a bit of a mess moving books and games out of the way.  While I was at it and had some extra space, other bookshelves needed re-organizing too…and the hall closet…and a few other miscellaneous things. Why not? 5 hours later, I was victorious! I may have gotten a little carried away, but I’m so happy to have tidy bookshelves and a hall closet that doesn’t explode every time it’s opened.

I mean, look at the beautifully stacked fabric!

I thought my design for keeping my knitting needles in place was pretty ingenious…

Here’s the finished bookshelf, all neat and clean!

I even had enough room to devote an entire shelf to all my horse books!

Big organizing projects take so much energy, and by the end of the day, I was ready to collapse, but it felt wonderful to have it all finished at last!

Now if I could just turn that same attention to my bedroom… that’ll be next month’s project.
