Not organizing or decluttering at all yesterday gave me just enough energy to gear up for the upcoming week. That's how I woke up feeling, anyway. But after working out, I took the kids swimming and found myself exhausted by naptime. So I didn't get very far. I did get a great nap, though!Today was Day 6: Tackling the Bathrooms and Linen Closets in the Spring Cleaning Party. I started with the cabinets above our toilet in the little potty room. (What is that room actually called, anyway?)
Before:
After:
The top baskets are separated by pain medications, cold medications and kids medications. The bottom baskets hold my contacts and Band-aids with first aid supplies. None of the baskets are full, so I have "room to grow" as they say.
I used to have the three matching silver baskets all on top with medicine, Band-aids and my contacts in each, but the medicines started overflowing and I needed a bigger basket, then I needed the bigger basket for Ryan for Easter...you know how it goes. Hence the dozens of bottles just tossed everywhere.
That's as far as I got. I took before pictures of the other cabinets and will likely take several hours to do our linen closet (which is huge - big enough to put a Pack 'n' Play with room to spare - it's our dumping ground) and will post pictures whenever I get around to those. To stay on task, that will likely be next week sometime.
Update: I did the linen closet! Pictures

Looks wonderful! I like the new baskets - you're right, they work better.
I thought your before pic was the organized one! Ha! I don't think spring cleaning should ever have the word "party" attached to it! False advertising! :)
