Organizing Envy–Ideas to Inspire and Try

I’ve been at my mom’s house that last few days helping her deal with the aftermath of a pipe bursting and ruining all of her floors.  All of the furniture has been moved out and new flooring is being installed throughout the house.  It’s a big mess but things are getting done and I’m grateful that she is ok and that the damage wasn’t any worse.

Starting tomorrow, the hubs and I will be working on getting everything back in place and doing a little organizing while we are at it.  When something like this happens, it makes you look at everything in a new light and take stock of what really matters and what things you no long need or value.  My mom is ready to let some things go.

With a big organizing task ahead of me, I thought I’d share some organizing inspiration with you today.

Linen Closet Organizing

Isn’t this linen closet just beautiful?  You’d never know that this cabinet is actually a pantry piece meant to be used in the kitchen.  My mom doesn’t have a free-standing piece like this but I could use these ideas in her linen closet. The shelves on the doors are great for keeping small items visible so I’m inspired to add these storage bins to her linen closet door.

Clothes Closet Organizing

Getting my moms closets back together is going to be a task.  She has a lot of clothes and shoes but things were in a bit of disarray.  A few storage baskets and a small cubby to hold shoes will add style and order.  And I’m loving the idea of cloth bins which could hold her scarves and cold weather accessories.

Favorite Posts, Pins and Products of the week!

Favorites Of The Week

Boy has this been a crazy week and to top it all off, I am in a battle with Target trying to get an online order issue resolved.  It is so sad that customer service has just fallen by the wayside and that companies just don’t seem to care.  When I had my store and even now with my design and Etsy business my #1 priority is to provide a great product and great service and to leave my customers satisfied and happy.

Enough about my trials and tribulations…let’s get on the some happy stuff.  I’ve been sharing inspirational photos and links on Saturdays for a while but a couple of weeks ago I reworked the Saturday post to share my favorite Posts, Pins and Products with you.  I really like the format so I’ll be sprinkling more of these post into my lineup going forward.

I hope you find inspiration in what I’m sharing and are enticed to shop some of the great products I come across (No affiliate link involved).  Enjoy!

PAINT YOUR CABINETS!~

Paint is the easiest way to Up-Style and chanage the look and feel of any room in your home, including your bathroom.  Pull out that paint brush and by the end of the weekend you can have a totally new look in the lou!

Here’s a little motivation to inspire you…

Tips for painting bathroom cabinets:

1)  Clean and then sand the existing finish–doing this will get any oils or residue of the cabinets and create a fresh surface for the paint

2)  Prime the cabinet and doors–this will ensure a smooth paint application

3)  Use a quality paint like Ace Hardware Cabinet, Door & Trim paint (this paint will level after applying and will not show brush strokes)

4) Use a foam roller and quality brush to apply paint

5)  Paint one door to ensure you like the color before moving on to the rest

6)  Add two or three coats of paint (waiting about 24 hours between each coat)

Once your cabinets are painted, think about investing a bit more money and upgrading your hardware if needed.  New hardware will be the icing on the cake.
