happy monday everyone! hope you all had a great weekend. mine was good right up until sunday when i got stricken with some sort of bug. ugh. so i’m here…just not 100% here. (forgive me then, if i ramble incoherently!)
we had a chance to take new photos for the store site!! hope you enjoy them – the theme this month is all about making spring cleaning fun. for me, step 1 on the spring cleaning checklist, is just getting things organized – the simple statement “put like things together” comes to mind. i know, it seems like something you’d tell a kindergartner but, it really does work!
so this seemed like the perfect job for these wire baskets from fog linen. this is how i want my whole house to be! (i’m allowed to dream, right?!) later this week, i’ll have a post on how to make the chalkboard shipping tags – trust me, if i can make them, anyone can!!
please feel free to share your spring cleaning tips!! p.s. here’s my main tip: don’t forget to crank the tunes when cleaning!

Love the shipping tag idea! Can’t wait to see your “how-to” tutorial
Oh drool! I love a perfectly organized room. And your photograph is wonderful. I’m sorry to hear you’re sick though — rest up today. As for my spring cleaning tip, I always ask myself if I’m really using something. If not, I either trash it or donate it. It’s sometimes hard to do but worth it in the end.
Love these photos! Especially the first organized one. And I love your #1 spring cleaning tip. That’s got to be one of my top tips, too! : )
