Barn Charm #58

Howell, New Jersey

 

A huge horse farm, not too far from home.

 

Update to original post.

There is a detached, occuppied house on the property.

I thought the space to the right of the stable was an office.

I usually see a lot of horses here, this picture was taken later in the day,

so perhaps they were inside.

Getting Organized

This entry won't be for everyone but I happen to love it!

I think organizing and cleaning my home are fun,

and I am finally at a point in my life,

where I don't hide it any more!

 

I have added a few wonderful Organizing Blogs to my reading list!
I Heart Organizing
The Lettered Cottage
&
Centsational Girl
 

They have inspired me to roll up my sleeves and tackle a few projects.
First I'll share the fun stuff!

 

Pretty fabric box from Christmas Tree Store

 

New CoolPix Camera

 

Holds the new camera with accessories that the hubs bought me for Christmas.

 

It's purple and everything fits perfectly!

 

My next project, organize my memory cards.

This will be difficult for everyone to understand,

but this is how I save my pictures.

 

I buy memory cards!!

 

This project did not take as long as I thought.

I viewed & dated each card, then noted how many pictures were on each.

I know there is a better way to save my pictures, but I just don't want to learn.

I get these cards at Costco, 2 for $20.00 and this system works for me.

 

and all the cards fit perfectly in this

pretty box I already had that was empty!

 

I cleaned and emptied 1/3 of my china cabinet

as it's not coming with me when I move.

I cleaned and organized my scrap booking supplies in to these two

 

big chests that will be coming with me.

 

Here's what they look like inside,

I have an unhealthy relationship with scrapbook paper.

 

I bought a yard of pretty purple fabric,

 

to make some sort of top for this basket,

otherwise the contents get too dusty!! 

 

I purged 5 large bags of garbage and it felt great!!

I have a list and I plan on finishing it!!

 

So what have you guys been up to?

Is there anyone else out there that enjoys cleaning & organizing?

Beating winter boredom with a few good projects!
