EmBaRRaSSiNg!

CauTioN!!
The Images you are about to see may be disturbing, especially to oRgaNiZeD viewers. If you have a weak stomach, please just scroll past this post.

I admit it. I am absolutely, ridiculously, guilty of letting my pantry get WaY too un-organized! Okay, SuPeR BAD! I couldn't handle it any more and spent the majority of my morning re-organizing and de-junking!! To those of you who have witnessed this bombshell, I sincerely apologize. Especially to my Mother and Father, who have taught me so differently. One of the things that sold us on our house was our closet space, We have SO much of it, its truly a blessing! but when you are taking up all your useful space for un-useful CRaP... you better (in words of my dear husband and son)'CheCk YoUrSeLf'. Hey, I guess it happens when summer is so busy, everyone just tosses everything.. EvErYwHeRe.

So here is my finished product:

I would still love to get organizers and storage boxes, but for now, I am happy.

In order to clean the pantry, I had to sacrafice my kitchen... to the aNiMaLs.... :)
Im excited to have it organized, I really hope to organize a closet a week til my closets look fantastic. I will admit, I keep my home pretty clean but closets are a trouble area for me. I do hope my children do better than I!

Looks Beautiful! It feels so good to get something accomplished once in a while.

WoW! That looks seriously great. An organized pantry does feel so good! Gracie always sneaks in mine and pushes all my cans together, it drives me nuts cause I like them to be facing the same direction and in lines...Is that in a movie? You have inspired me, and yes your house always looks beautiful, I have never noticed AnYtHiNg out of place!

Aaah! Isn't that a GREAT feeling? I LOVE organized closets! (My Pantry is also on my "Hit List" before Baby Bron makes his debut in a few weeks! I am definitely "nesting"!) :)

Awh...don't be so hard on your self. By seeing your pictures I've decided you're never invited over to my house - I would die from embarassment.

I was definately born WITHOUT the organization gene. {Dang it!}

That looks awesome! Looking at yours does make me want to go clean mine up and make it look all pretty! I am right there with you as far as closets go! My kids closets are clean, but mine is in need of some real help!

I just love how Gage looks completely content in the middle of it all. NICE organization by the way!

Sara said...

Started mine today, but had to leave in the middle to pick up the carpool and then a Soccer game... Sigh... tomorrow... I hope!
