For Just One Week


I spent quite a bit of time this week in our spare room putting boxes away and organizing. It still has a ways to go, but all my scrapbooking stuff is out and pretty much organized.

The desk with my scrapbooking stuff:


I also spent a bit of time every day sewing. I made these cute little shoes for my baby, and I am almost done with an Easter cover for a little throw pillow. I will post a picture of that when I'm done.

This week I will continue to spend 10-20 minutes a day organizing our spare room. I also want to sew or craft in some way every day.

We are also going to try the game that Ice Cream posted about last week. I told my husband about it and he's going to try it, too. We will probably add a few things like reading scriptures every day. It should be fun!

Way to go! It must feel so good. We moved over a year ago and there are still boxes I don't know what to do with.

Those little shoes are adorable!!! You're getting there, a little at a time. That's awesome.

Yay! I can't wait to hear how the game worked for you. I've loved it.

You are inspiring me to work a little each day on my never ending junk room dilema.
