End of Week 5: Room A Week, Bag A Day Challenge

The Room:
This week was the craft room. Remember how it looked just a week ago?

Well, here we are today...

                                         

Each cupboard has been dejunked, cleaned and organized...

                                          

Some of the cupboards even have empty space...
                                          

        

I'm most excited about this cupboard...
                                          

Why?  because I now have a place to store all my water bottles...

                           

Halloween, Valentines Day, Easter and 4th of July all fit in one cupboard now...

                                                

I love how tidy everything is...

                                                

All my craft supplies are neatly stored in glass jars...

                                 

and everything is much easier to find. 

I was so excited about how my craft room turned out, I decided to clean my laundry room from top to bottom as well...

                                               

                           

The Bag...

                                              

33 pounds of craft supplies and trash! 

I can't believe were starting the final week of the Room A Week, Bag A Day Challenge.  Now that MOST of the house is clean and organized (remember the one room that's housing all of the items for the garage sale?) I had to really think about what room I would choose for week 6.  There's all of the kids rooms (I'd rather they deep clean those) or there's the garage (that's definitely going to take more than a week) So I've opted for an outside room.  Technically, it's not a room, but unfortunately I keep using it as a room.  It's the driveway!  The dumping ground for all my items I purchase on the weekend that will eventually end up getting painted or cleaned up to go to my vintage markets.  I'm embarrassed to say we definitely look like the Beverly Hillbillies.  

                            

This week I will get these items cleaned up, in the paint booth and out of the driveway.  I will also clean the driveway top to bottom.  Does that see like a silly thing to say?  Just take a look at my garage door...

                                             

This is sawdust mixed with dirt mixed with an occasional rain.  I'm sure my neighbors will appreciate this weeks room more than anyone!  

I'd love to hear how you're doing with the challenge! Don't forget about our massive garage sale were having to get rid of all this stuff!  It will be held December 18 & 19th near Gilbert Road and Adobe in Mesa.  Everyone is invited to participate by either shopping or selling some of your own clutter.  Let me know if you'll be bringing any items to the sale by calling or texting me at 480-710-2031.

Total Loss: 713 1/2 pounds
