spring cleaning

So…I’ve been doing a little spring/summer cleaning. My sister and I are having a garage sale in a few weeks. Good motivation.
 I now have one cleaned out cabinet. Hello pretty white dishes. One cupboard down, many more messy and cluttered cabinets to go.
Now that I am getting a little more sleep and in full get-ready-for-garage-sale mode, I’ve started working on Griffin’s room again. Gasp…I know. Maybe I’ll actually finish it before he is one. Just maybe.
I am also finally ordering a Griffin print from Penny Paper Co. I’ve been putting it off hoping they would have another sale someday. If you have been wanting one of their cute prints now is the time to get one. It doesn’t get any better than a buy 1 get 1 free sale! They didn’t ask me to blog about that…I just like to share a good deal. 🙂
Let’s hope I can keep up the motivation to get my house clean and organized (even though I know it will only stay that way for about five seconds)!

  • Creole Wisdom - Garage sales are so fun. I’ve never put one on, but love going to them 🙂

    Your home is just lovely. I love when you post photos of it. White dishes are great, no? I love my IKEA ones that have lasted three moves and way longer than their $20 value!

    I’m looking forward to when you post about Griffin’s room.ReplyCancel
