I have been crocheting for over a month now, and I can’t stop. It is so much fun, and it is a great little project to work on in the evenings too. I have been making lots of scarves, pot holders, and I’ve started working on an afghan too. I need to make a yarn run though.
So much fun, but now I don’t want to do anything else…
November’s de-cluttering went a little better. I was motivated to work on the boy’s room. James also got me motivated to clean out the scary closet.
We ended up cleaning another 391 items out of the house. Many of those items came out of more toy clutter, and the scary closet storage too. It feels good to get a bit more clutter out of here too.
December is my last month that I am counting de-cluttering totals. It has been a fun project for 2012. I’m glad that my house is finally getting a bit more in order.
We have been in the rearranging mood around here. It started off with me wanting to move the gazelle into the living-room for the holidays, but it just didn’t fit. We tried rearranging the living-room a few times, but it just wasn’t working out. We then decided to move our focus to the foyer.
The foyer has always been a troublesome room in the house. It is a room, but it isn’t a room, it is very open, and there isn’t any storage… It is also the room that you first walk into when you come home, and most of the time it is a little cluttered. After a little bit of furniture moving, I think this time we’ve got it just right.
We moved the love seat under the stairs, and we turned the foyer into a little den. I still have a nice sewing space too, and now we finally have a truly usable space. I would still like to address the jacket clutter, but that’s another project.
I love the way that the room turned out. It has quickly become my favorite spot to catch up on my reading, or crochet a bit.
I can’t believe that it is December already, this year is flying by. I have a tasty menu planned for December. I think I’ll be in the kitchen all month. So here we go it’s December’s monthly dinner menu.
Happy December everyone!
