I had the desire to do something productive today. This desire was accompanied by also wanting to do nothing...interesting! So, I decided to tackle a few of the easier projects that have been on my list for quite sometime...Why have these things been on my list for so long if they are so easy?
First I cleaned out the phone cupboard. Threw out some *stuff* and organized a bit. That one was easy.
Then I decided to tackle the refrigerator door. While I have seen messier fridges in my life mine was beginning to irritate me. I had such a random assortment of *stuff* on the fridge - a picture from when Archer was about a year old (this was it's third fridge door - in the same plastic frame - yikes); a picture of Chip, Lorinda, and Caleb (from before Dawson was born...); various magnets; ALL of Archer's middle school report cards; doctor notes; 2 grocery lists; and other random stuff.... I decided to take a few of the items and make a QUICK scrapbook page. Here it is....
And the after shot. I love the alphabet magnets (Old Navy and M&M World) and I HAVE to have 2 grocery lists (one for Trader Joes and one for regular groceries and Costco). And what fridge door would be complete without art from a child? Archer's Mona Lisa parody from 7th grade art fits the bill for that one.
It definitely looks CLEAN! That's for sure. Where's the other stuff though? Like the cute cat magnet & a family picture that rocks above all else? Just curious! ☺
ReplyDeleteWow, clean! I completely emptied mine last summer and all of my rent-a-kids missed seeing their photos posted...they actually gave me :( sad face when they saw everything was gone.
ReplyDeleteWow! Looks good. You're not trying to motivate me or anything are you. That wouldn't be very nice!! :o)
ReplyDeleteWay to go! Mission Organization!
ReplyDeleteI like the page idea b/c the fridge door really captures where we are in daily life! Nice!
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of a regrigerator page!
ReplyDeleteThe stories of our life.
OK, now I'm feeling guilty about not getting more organized... Well, really you are inspiring me, but the fact that I felt inspired by your bed-side re-org, but didn't actually embark on my own clean up projects is what's causing the guilt. ;)
ReplyDeleteOK, so, where to start....??? Uh. The fridge!
Nice idea to scrapbook the fridge stuff. I like it...
The before & after pictures of your refrigerator door are great...a very impressive transformation. I'm glad you kept Archer's Mona Lisa artwork on the 'new' door.
