Office Remodel Progress
I think I have sold my soul to The Container Store. Srly.
We invested in some Elfa shelving during the shelving sale that just ended. (Next sale is in January.)
We finally have all our books and photo albums out of storage. One box of books is queued up for library donation. We really did a good job of letting go. I could part with more, but I'll wait until space is an issue.
Isn't this beautiful!
Yes, the flag is not folded correctly...we still have some detail work to do, but we are getting there. ;) We are going to consolidate down some software, get a pretty box for the paperbacks that are worn, etc.
New issue in the queue is old photo ablum. I have some that I need to thin down to the pictures that REALLY matter. That will not be easy. Project for 2009...time to just pick a year and do it.
It looks like the office theme will be "patriotic." We have pictures, etc. that will tie into that.
So, Terry is getting worked to death on my cleaning bender. The venture took me two trips to store to get what we needed...we added a forth shelf and had forgotten bookend holders. We used the Click and Pickup, which was wonderful! The job took Terry about half a Saturday, but he was watching Iron Man with a Rifftrax while he worked...so factor that in as you will. Then the unboxing began!
Other nice feature...the dog cannot get to our books. :) Big factor in this decision.
More later...it's a BIG week on the Organizing front!
