52 Weeks of Organizing
During 2011 I followed along with Laura from I’m an Organizing Junkie in an attempt to get our home organized with 52 weekly projects. Since we had a baby, I missed a bunch of weeks but I tried to keep up with the project as much as I could without taking away from enjoying this fleeting time of babyhood. This page lists all the projects I’ve completed (with links to each post) as well as a list of projects left to do at the bottom of the page. You can also check out my initial plan for the project, prior to week 1.
