The best closet ever.

Well hello there! Ready for the weekend? We have some fun plans. The snow started melting today and should throughout the weekend so that's an extra bonus. We saw The Greatest Showman today and it was fantastic. We've heard so much about it and it exceeded my expectations. 

I mentioned earlier this week that I've been an organizing fool lately. It's been fun to figure out how our spaces work and what functions best. I purposefully waited to do this because I didn't want to put in all this work to find out later we didn't use the everything like I thought. Of course it will still change over time, but for now I'm thrilled with how it's coming together!

This closet was a doozy. It's my favorite in the house. (Do normal people have a favorite closet?)When I shared our mud room/laundry a couple months ago, I told you I was most excited about the closet we added in the room. A closet JUST for cleaning crap. Hello! 

But it quickly became our dumping ground, which I was OK with knowing I'd get to it eventually. Here's how it looked the night I started:

It held tons of stuff but wasn't functional at all. You can see one of the vacuums (I keep the other one in the basement where we have more carpet) lived outside the closet which isn't dreamy at all. 😂 There was obviously no room for it. We had quite a few things I wanted to fit in this closet:

• utility stuff like batteries and light bulbs
• cleaning rags, sponges and the like
• cleaning supplies
• vacuum, brooms, swiffers, etc. (we have a lot of these because I use one for different needs)
• ironing stuff -- boards, (we have large and small ones) and iron
• wrapping items like paper, bags, ribbon, etc.
• carpet cleaner machine

I quickly realized not all of this was going to fit, more on that in a minute. 

Here's another look at what we were dealing with:

Good times!!

As I do anytime I start an organizing project, I took every single thing out of the closet. First goal is to purge what we don't need anymore. 

This is where it got hard for me. I mention the Konmari method every time I organize something, because it changed my life for the better. I've gotten VERY good at letting go of things. Very good. But I discovered I have a weird thing with cleaning supplies. I couldn't let go of them!

And look how much we had!:

What in the world? Here's one thing I've learned since moving in this house -- from this point on like items will live together. At the last house I had a cabinet I built in our laundry room that held all of our extra cleaning supplies and paper items. 

When we moved I was appalled at how many cleaning supplies we had, because they were out of site, out of mind. Keeping them down in the basement in a cabinet I rarely opened didn't work. We bought more of stuff not knowing what we had. 

I used to use mainly one cleaning brand exclusively around the house -- I have concentrate I would mix up. I don't know why I got away from that and we ended up with so many bottles of stuff, but I know a big part of it was not having it all in one spot. 

I've learned people! No more. But I stood there literally frozen in front of it all, having a hard time letting it go. I kind of smacked myself out of it (figuratively) and went back to what I learned with the Konmari method -- do I LOVE the product and (my addition) does it work well? 

I was able to start going through items and first decided what I didn't even like. I had a lot of carpet cleaning stuff and I've only found a couple that really work well. The rest went away. I had three cans of a cleaner that were filled in various amounts. I kept the one that was the most full and donated the rest. If I never used it -- it was in the donate pile. I was able to whittle it down to a third and stuff we actually USE. Actually a third of that is just empty bottles I plan to use for the concentrate.

Another item I struggled to let go of (and it is so silly) were cleaning rags. We had WAY too many. They multiply in dark closets. And again it was hard for me to let go of them, which is just weird. I stood there thinking, "Why are you being weird about this? They're rags!" Again, I got myself in gear and sorted through them: 

Overall I didn't get rid of much other than rags and cleaning stuff. One thing I easily put in the donate pile was the bag of vacuum attachments that I've kept for eight years and never used one time. Gone!

It was more about figuring out the space than anything. I started on the side where I hung the ironing boards and iron:

The little board on the bottom is for shirt sleeves. It's awesome. The smaller one is a favorite and I use it more than the large board. It's from IKEA and is great for quick items. I also use it when I'm hemming drapes with fusable webbing. 

One of the biggies in here was the wrapping stuff. I really wanted it to live in this room because I'm usually running out the door with a gift and needing a bag or tissue paper. More often than not I'd stop and buy something. I thought about organizing it out in the open (we have a large wall over the folding table I could have used for this). But I really didn't want to have it out -- I want to keep the room clean and streamlined so I preferred it tucked away. I looked into all kinds of ways to do this (I was out of floor space) and then came across this pegboard and components at IKEA:

It fit perfectly on the wall and it holds a ton! I have gift bags of all sizes, tons of tissue, tags and banners, tape and then ribbon and pens and random stuff in the hanging bag. LOVE this thing!! It is great:

And it's completely out of the way. I wanted to keep my wrapping paper in here as well but was out wall and floor space. So I grabbed a couple of these plastic jobbies from IKEA as well (we use one in the pantry for plastic grocery bags) and hung them on the back of the door. Not gonna lie, it pained me to put holes in the door. But they are solid wood so I can (fairly) easily fill them if I ever decide to move these:

You can see how I built the big blackboard here! Those are only two bucks each, but if you don't have a store near you, they're available here too. 

There were a couple things I didn't end up putting in here and those were light bulbs and batteries. I put the extra metal shelf (also from IKEA -- bought them when we moved in for $13) in the garage by the door. So we can easily access them when needed. I was thinking of what we reach for most -- I grab cleaning supplies way more than light bulbs. 

Here's how it came together:

Everything has a place and I love it!! And I'm loving the double doors. It's so nice to be able to open them both up and have full view of the closet. We have them in a bedroom upstairs too and although they take up floor space, I really like them. 

Do you spy the outlet? I had one added so I can charge that little vacuum. It's great for little messes and quick cleaning in the kitchen. I just have to find the charger now. ;) 

Here's what this side was pared down to:

I use (affiliate) those Sterilite bins everywhere. (You can see them in the linen closet here.)

Not bad considering this is where I started (I had two shelves on that side before)!: 

It is such a lovely feeling to open a closet and find exactly what I want! AND it's even nicer to have a place for items we used to just throw in there. ;) 

These are my two biggest tips when purging and organizing -- even though it's a pain sometimes, taking everything to ONE location really does help. You see the multiples you have and it's easier to let things go. And think hard about what you love and use. It helps me focus! 

Have you been working on closets? Cabinets? Under the sink? Tis the season!

Hanging shelves in the kitchen

Hey hey! My late owl-ness has kicked in HARD on these shorter days. Goodness, I cannot get my mojo going till evening everyday, hence these posts getting later and later. It drives me crazy and it's worse than ever lately. 

I've been organizing like crazy when I get into gear lately! The bug has bitten me and I've gone through a bunch of stuff. I finished up the mud room closet, the area under the kitchen sink and now I'm working on getting my closet under control. I'll share those areas with you soon, but for today I wanted to show you the shelves I hung in our kitchen awhile back. 

We had a spot that called for an upper cabinet in our plans, and when I was looking for a place to add shelves (because I love them in a kitchen), I knew that was perfect. It's right by our fridge and I had the cabinet removed and a sconce added on the wall. The wall was bare for a couple months but I finally got these up!

I knew I wasn't going to be able to get both brackets into a stud (if you're going to put any kind of weight on shelves you need to make sure they're in a stud or you use a really good anchor). I found these at the hardware store -- they hold up to 100 pounds. I knew my shelves wouldn't be close to that even with dishes, but I usually over compensate with something like this:

Regular anchors are either screwed or inserted into the wall and when you add the screw they open up a bit on the other side of the drywall to hold them in place. Toggle anchors have a mechanism that actually flips open and then braces against the back of the wall. So they are your best bet for anything really heavy. I used similar anchors (made for exterior) when I hung our window boxes on the old house years ago. They stayed put forever!

These are particularly great because they are self-drilling. No need to use a bit to start the hole off like usual: 

source

They were SO easy to get in the wall. That pointy end makes it quick and simple. I used my drill:

I got frustrated though, because when I added the screw, it just kept turning and wouldn't tighten. Whether you're in a stud or an anchor -- your screw will get to a point where it will get tight and stop turning. That's when you know it's secure. These just kept turning. 

I finally read the instructions and realized you have to keep turning for the toggle to open up in the back. It takes a few seconds but eventually they will tighten up. Just a little heads up for any of you that use them. :)

Someday I'd like to add thicker shelves, but for now I just used inexpensive wood. It's just thick enough that the little detail at the end of the brackets overlaps nicely: 

I found these shelves at the Crates and Pallets booth at the Haven Conference last year. They generously offered to send some my way when I needed them. I love that they're simple and a little more industrial than what I used in our last kitchen. As I've said a few times, I'm craving a simpler look in this house and loving it! And I think all rooms need a touch of black so I knew that would work even with the other metal tones. (They come in a variety of sizes, I used the 12 inch.)

You don't have to match all your metals -- spaces are a whole lot more interesting when you don't!:

I just used what we have to fill the shelves -- our everyday dishes are here and the top shelf is more for display: 

I haven't even begun to organize the kitchen cabinets, so what we keep on there may change with time. (As usual, I will add a list of sources at the bottom of the post!)

I'll share a proper tour of the kitchen soon! Still some little tweaks I'd like to make first. But getting these up and the island counter stained and sealed has finished this space off beautifully: 

I stained these in the same color as the island!

Our accent lighting in this room is my favorite -- I love to have the cabinets lights on or just the sconce above the shelves:

I firmly believe open shelves will stand the test of time -- and I find them to be very functional. Even if you don't use them everyday, they are still a pretty way to break up a lot of cabinets in your kitchen. I love them!:

Have you incorporated shelves into your home? I had them in our kitchen and basement kitchenette in the last house and will do the same in this one too. I'm on the lookout for the perfect thick wood for these shelves to chunk them up a bit -- I would love to find something old to use. 

For now I'm thrilled to have even more pretty storage in the kitchen! If you have any questions, let me know!

Abstract Living Room Art

When I took all of my holiday decor down,I loved being able to give my home a fresh new look.  I had grabbed a piece of art from my bedroom to add some color in, and while I loved  how it looked in my living room, I really missed it in my bedroom. Our DecoArt challenge this month was to paint a piece of canvas art with the Americana Premium line of paints (which I love!). I decided to paint a new piece of abstract living room art, so I could return the one to my bedroom. I used Americana Premium paints, and an old wood canvas I had, to create something that fit perfectly in my space.

I started by painting over the old image on the wood board with Americana Premium Titanium White acrylic paint. I left the frame in it’s original state  because I love the wood tone and contrast.

After the base coat dried, I started by picking up some Phthalo Blue on my paint brush and making some wide downward strokes.

I Repeated the strokes in an overlapping manor. After I had added as much blue as I wanted, I used the Americana Premium Paint in Carbon Black.

I took a break,grabbed some coffee, and let those colors dry. Once they were dry, I used the Titanium White to go back over the strokes of blue and black, and painted a translucent square.  After the white paint dried, I used some gold leafing to add shine. I love to gold leaf, it’s such a fun process, like these bottles I had made last year.

Once the gold leaf was on, my art was ready to hang. The nice thing about using something that was already on the wall, was that it already has a frame, and the hangers are already there!

I love how my abstract living room art turned out, and how it looks in the room! It’s really a better size than the art from upstairs for that area.

The art goes so well with the curtains! I grow more in love with those blue velvet drapes everyday, I am really glad a took a chance on them!

Looking for more fun projects?You can also visit this post for more about painting and framing abstract art, and this post for gold leafing.

My first organized closet!

Hey all! A quick post for you today about something I've been really excited to tackle. I'm a bit odd -- I LOVE to purge and organize. Purging items from our home makes me feel lighter and breezier (ha!) and organizing things soothes me. Both give me a great feeling of accomplishment. 

I'm not a stickler about it -- things get messed up and it's not always perfect. But knowing exactly where something needs to go is a very good thing. We've lived here about 12 weeks now and I've been looking forward to the day I could actually start organizing. That day has arrived!!

My first goal when we moved in was to just get us functioning. Then it was to empty as many boxes as possible -- I got those done in the first month. Then the holidays hit so I allowed myself to enjoy those and not worry about organizing anything. 

But it was starting to get to all of us -- we couldn't find anything and didn't know where to put stuff when things were put away. So now that (most) of the holiday decor is down and I'm starting to recover from my back issues...the time has come! 

We're lucky to have a bunch of closets in this house -- it's just a matter of figuring out what we want in each one. We have a linen closet near our bedroom that has become my catch all, especially during the holidays. When we moved in I would just throw random stuff in there and it continued when at Christmas. Wrapping paper, gifts, toilet paper, photo boxes, candles, paint supplies, decorative items. You name it, we had it in here:

So this is a photo I took hours before a holiday party we hosted. My husband cleaned our entire house  (I wasn't much help with my back) and at one point he said, "What if people want to look in closets?" And I (in sheer terror) said, "There's no way they'll want to look in closets...right?!" So about two hours before our guests arrived I made a sad attempt to try to make this one better. This was after I took half the crap out.

This is the after -- it was a massive improvement, believe it or not:

This, my friends, has been my Monica closet. (If you don't know what I'm talking about look up the Friends episode.) ;) 

But now it's just lovely, and I'll take you through my process. First up, I made a list of items we want to have easy access to. They were the following:

• light bulbs
• paper towels
• tissue boxes
• candles
• extension cords
• wrapping paper (and all of the stuff that goes with it)
• photos
• cleaning supplies
• batteries
• toilet paper

I had a few other things on the list as well, but those were the biggies. (Towels and sheets are stored in our bathroom and closets.) I thought about how to organize items and decided I wanted our closet in the mud room to be more utility focused -- bulbs, cleaning, batteries, etc. This closet I wanted to be easy access to stuff we reach for more often. 

I started by completely emptying the closet. Some items had just been thrown in there -- paint supplies went in the garage:

I used to keep these in the house (in a dresser), because our garage was a much longer walk before. Now it's super quick for me to run out to the garage so these will live out there. 

I've told you about the Konmari purge I completed a couple years ago and how it changed our lives. I had an even better perspective on it AFTER we moved. Most people purge when they're packing up, but I didn't get rid of much. (Because I had already gone through the process.)

But when we moved into the house I had a whole new outlook on our stuff after living without it for two months. I got rid of a TON more and haven't missed any of it. But here's the thing...there's still one item that I obviously can't get under control. It's so random...but I couldn't believe how many candles we had:

What in the ever loving?? Where do they all come from? I don't get it. Don't. get. it. Some were in random places in our old house and now I have everything in one spot. We also had them in certain places in our decor and when I packed them up I put them all together. So that's part of it, but still. UGH. 

So. I purged all of that. I'm down to a couple shelves -- most of them are electronic candles I use during the holidays. If I ever find we need more space in here I'll move some of them to down to storage. I have some wax melt things and some oils/plug ins that I organized as well: 

Those (affiliate) white bins are my all time favorites. I use them everywhere! You can kind of see what's inside but they keep things from getting messy (especially great for toiletries in the bathroom). 

I kept our photo boxes in here just until I compete the built ins in my office. (You can find them here -- I've had them for years and they've held up well.) They'll move in there later, but for now I like them here. At the very least I'm reminded every time I open the door that I want to get them organized better:

We have a lot of extras right now -- we don't usually have quite so many paper towel and tissues. I've said it a million times!! You spend more money when you're not organized. We always used to buy more than we needed before I organized our house. I'm still using the just moved in excuse for now. ;) 

I know having these supplies so easily accessible will keep that under control. But listen...isn't it pretty?? I mean look at it:

I've had all of the storage items for years except the small round fabric bins. I grabbed a few of those at the Target dollar spot a couple weeks ago. Very cute. 

There you go -- the first organizing post in the new year/new house! It only took me three months to get going! Our Monica closet it clean and organized and feels like a breath of fresh air when we open it. NOW onto the mud room closet -- I'm even more excited about that one. #nerd

Have you been purging and organizing? I recommend going through your items before organizing what you have left. But it's such a good feeling right? Do you enjoy it like I do?

P.S. No one looked the closet. ;)

Hardware and drapes for BIG windows (that don't break the bank!)

I'm already loving the difference the small changes I've made to our home have changed how the spaces look. I like how the small things layer upon each other and make each room feel cozier and more and more like we've lived here forever.

One of the first things we noticed about this house when we walked through the studs months ago was the number of windows and how BIG some of them were. I'm a lover of natural light so I was really excited about that:

As you can see, in our family room the windows are extra high -- they have the transom windows above so it makes them even taller than the rest of the house. LOVE them. And most of the year we can keep them open no problem -- when the leaves are on the trees we have tons of privacy, but this time of year it feels like we're living in a fish bowl. ;)

Around Christmas Home Depot had a sale on their bamboo roman shades and they were such a good deal I was able to purchase for most of the house. I got them all up, but we were stumped as to what to do with these windows. They are tricky because of the transoms and the length. 

On the smaller ones I could have hung the blinds under the transoms, but I wasn't sure I'd even like that look and how it would cut off the window. And the big window requires a way to secure the shade in the middle (the wider ones have three brackets). The horizontal area between the windows is vinyl, not wood, so we can't secure the brackets in there. (I mean, we could, but I don't want to.)

I could have looked into custom bamboo shades, but they wouldn't match the rest of the house. SO. I knew I'd have to do drapes of some kind, and figured because they were going to be so long (132 inches), I'd have to go custom. I was planning to shop for fabric but quickly realized with the number of yards I'd need, it was going to be hard to do this affordably, especially adding a liner. (I needed four panels so that they would cover the whole wall when closed.)

Then I started looking online, just to see what I could find ready made. I found (affiliate) just what I wanted on Amazon -- to the rescue again!! And I was able to get them super quick, score! I found 52" by 132" lined drapes for $36 each. That's pretty darn good for such long curtains. Still an investment but I was thrilled to find them for that price. They came in a medium gray color which was exactly what I was looking for in this room. 

I was able to hang these myself -- it was AWESOME to get something done after weeks of not being able to do much (I have a herniated disc that is slowly but surely healing). I took it suuuuper slow but with some help from my husband, we were able to get it done. The hardest part was getting them wrinkle free, more on that in a bit!

They were just a couple inches too long, so I used my hemming tape to hem them up just a bit. I've been singing the praises of this stuff for years -- if you haven't heard of it, it's fusible webbing "tape" that you use an iron on to hem just about any fabric: 

You just figure out where you want your hem, fold over with the tape inside and then use the iron with high steam to warm it up. It fuses the fabrics together: 

That little ironing board is from IKEA -- I've had one for years and LOVE it because it's small and so easy to pull out for quick stuff like this. 

You can see that these have just a slight sheen -- I was a little worried at first because I didn't want that look. But it's very minor and I quite like the texture of the fabric. It looks like linen.

I could have left them to hang and get some of the wrinkles out, but it was driving me crazy. So I used my handheld steamer (this is the one I use). This took FOREVER. Longer than it took to hang the dang things. But it made a big difference!:

Over the years I've fallen in love with drapes with grommets. They save on any additional hardware and look SO nice when the curtains are open:

They pleat beautifully, which is especially nice if you're really going to actually use your drapes. Also -- the grommets make opening and closing the drapes super smooth. 

A little trick if you'll be opening and closing your drapes often -- put one ring/hook/grommet on the outside of the drapery hardware. So when you open the drapes, the end will stay put. Otherwise the whole curtain will go flying across the rod and you'll constantly be adjusting. Hope that makes sense!

I used two on each side of the window so we can cover the whole wall. We couldn't believe what a difference they made in the room! Fabric on these windows makes the room feel so much warmer:

I found this table about a week ago at HomeGoods for this spot (before the drapes) and used one of my favorite lamps. Because it disappears a bit I'm switching it out with another one, but you get the idea. ;)

Another decorative item that instantly warms up a room? Lamps. We didn't have any in here and I love the soft light! 

I'm going to have to move the drapery bracket over just a bit so the drapes can fall better next to that table. But the thought of patching holes in my brand new walls makes me want to cry, so I'll do it when I feel like tackling some hole filling. For now it still looks great:  

They aren't light blocking but we don't need that anyway. We'll rarely close them (if ever) during the day. They do have a nice white liner so look great from the outside. 

We close them at night and it only takes seconds because the grommets make it so easy:

I almost forgot to tell you about the long curtain rod! I looked EVERYWHERE for long rods that weren't crazy expensive. I was going to make them with metal rods from the hardware store, but those weren't long enough. I finally realized that IKEA carries really long drapery rods...but even those weren't quite long enough. I thought I was pretty smart when I realized I could just grab two sets of the rods and put them together. Then the other day when I was there I saw they actually suggest doing just that for wide windows. Ha! I'll list exactly what I used at the bottom of this post. (Only cost me $12!)

Here they are opened up. The fabric is super thin and light so even though there's two drapes on each side they don't take up much room: 

Here's a view I haven't shown you just yet -- you can see how our dining area is situated here: 

Because I LOVE before and afters I have to share this one -- this room is coming together even better than I had hoped! The before: 

And how the room looks now:

Eventually we may look into fabric shades for these windows maybe? I'm not sure though. I know that won't be cheap and I like having them so open.

I have big plans in mind for our fireplace wall but am working them out in my head before I tackle that project. :) I'm obsessed with the symmetry of this room! I was really pleased to see how the visual weight of the drapes balanced out the room even more -- our stairs are on the other side:

I have learned over the years that I save SO much money if I'm just patient. You want to do all the things in a new house but waiting to find just the right thing always pays off for me!

I listed all of the resources for this room at the bottom of this post -- check that out if you're interested in anything! 

Here's what I used for these windows:

Racka curtain rod x2 (Hugad is a bit thicker and what I wanted, but they were out) from IKEA
Betydlig brackets x3 from IKEA
These are the curtains I purchased and they have tons of lengths available. (One even longer!)

My total cost for the whole window was $160 -- which is still a lot but I saved a TON by taking my time and looking around for deals. Even if I had purchased the fabric myself and made them I would have spent quite a bit more. And the hardware was SUPER cheap.

If you have any questions, please let me know! I was thrilled to find these for such a great price so as always, I like to pass them along.
