   Day #16 ~ Getting Organized Challenge (Cleaning out & Organizing the Fridge)

I actually did this last week on the clean the freezer out day.  I figured as long as my hands were all ready freezing, and I was already elbow deep in Yuck, I might as well just do the fridge too.  And let me tell you....it was NASTY!!!  I had been meaning to do it for a while now, but was avoiding it.

Here are the befores (please don't judge, I know it is gross):
 Now...how nasty is this?!  We must have had a leaky milk carton at some point.  bleh (and a foam heart...how in the world did that get there?)
 All cleaned out....so sparkly clean.  It looks brand new!
 Then I tackled the door shelves....and they came out great as well!
 Threw out A LOT of stuff!  It looked so empty afterward....time to go grocery shopping!


I feel so much better having this done.  And it makes me smile every time I open the fridge and see how clean it is.  I feel lighter just knowing that this is done and I don't have to be embarrassed every time someone opens my fridge!

   Day #8 ~ Getting Organized Challenge (The Coat Closet)

So....I have been trying to keep up with the Getting Organized Challenge over at A Bowl Full of Lemons  (I will post the past day's challenges soon).  Today is the Coat Closet.  This is something I have been meaning to do anyway...so what a perfect time to get to it!

Here are my before pictures:



 Here it is pretty much all cleaned out:

 And all done and decluttered!   Can you believe the space?!
 I have a 6 month old...so I have to have her seat handy...but look at the floor space!



What a great way to get all these little jobs done!  So motivating!  And I am feeling so much better about my house!  Thanks to A Bowl full of Lemons!
