Yes, this is your closet! No, it's not a dream!

OH HEY DOMESTIC DIVAS!!!


NOPE! the picture you see below... is not a dream, or from a Martha Stewart magazine! Keep reading!  Your closet can easily look like this too! :) 
My husband and I recently moved, which meant I had the opportunity to organize my closets from scratch...all of them(...I can almost hear the angels sing, when I say that) Let me say it again just for fun... I got to organize my closets from SCRATCH! ... Based on this,  I guess you can also call me, a domestic geek... because the thought of organizing from a clean slate....TOTALLY made my day!  :)  


Tip & Task Du Jour : Overhaul your linen closet! It's soooo easy!  
Store bed linen sets inside one of their own pillowcases . 


You can give this project 15 minutes, or spend all day on it...It's totally up to you! No matter how much time you dedicate to this project, the end result I promise, is a beautifully organized, and not to mention and all around good looking closet, you'll be showing off to everyone who comes thru your door! ...Well, I would! :)

Fridays: The End and The Beginning for so many Domestic Divas

Happy FRIDAY Divas!!!


Seeing as I am (and most of you are, I am sure!) the domestic goddess in my house,  Fridays for me, are sooooo bitter sweet....  It's may be the end of my work week, but I am quickly reminded, it is also the beginning of my weekend... Which I would LOVE to pretend my weekends are nothing but FUN TIMES...BUT who are we kidding!  My weekend consists of laundry, cooking, vacuuming, general cleaning..... BLAH BLAH BLAH  


Recently, while scrubbing down my bathroom, I looked in the mirror (once it was free of toothpaste splatter).... with messy hair, bright green track pants, the rattiest of T-shirts, my trusty apron and my fancy rubber gloves....( for the record: I looked absolutely beautiful :D) I literally looked at myself and LOL'ed! Looking as gorgeous as I did....  I said to myself.... "Who's got two thumbs and makes organizing and cleaning fun.... "THIS GIRL" ...LOL... as I said.... I gave a hardy laugh out loud!


This "moment" I had in front of the mirror has inspired a series of tips I will bring you over the next couple weeks, to help make organizing and cleaning...maybe not fun, but definitely a little easier, and probably a lot more enjoyable than you would like to think!!!  : )


Hope the tips help you....  Let me know, send me an email, I would love to hear from you! :)


Pour yourself a BIG glass of wine(or..Your cocktail of choice!)....  read this blog, take tonight off......and clean tomorrow!


Cheers,
