it seems like every blog in the blogosphere right now is talking about one of two things. either everyone is organizing/re-decorating their homes or getting healthy. these are both things i want to do this year also. i guess after the rush of the holidays this is the next "natural" thing to do as women. get our bodies and homes back in check!!!!! everything can feel so out of control during the holidays in a good way though. our routines are off because of family, parties, shopping, eating, and the like.
so are you like me? have you completely cleaned your house from top to bottom and are starting to figure out what area of your house you are going to rearrange and organize first? i have decided to start with my front room. this room has been a challenge for me since we moved in. in this room i went with a different decorating style than i usually do. and it has proven to stump me decorating wise. so i am in the process of making it more "rachel". here are some before pics and then the in between pics.
Before:
blah, even the tree is still up. what a sad room!In between:
Still left to do:
*make white slipcover for wing chair
*new pillows for couch
*window treatments
*new shelving
*turn gun rack left in basement by previous owners
into coat and key ring holder??? Yep, you read that
right GUN rack! We will see how it turns out. I'm
actually really excited to do it!

Yes, we are doing a little bit of both of those: organizing and eating better. As for organizing, it's nice the stores put all their organizational stuff on sale after the holiday. They must know us well. :) We bought a couple of things to help keep our stuff a little more organized.
