I did my least favorite thing today - hang up clothes. I transferred both John and my's clothing from the bonus room, where they were laid out on the floor in all states of disarray, to the closet. Then I color-ordered mine. And donated a few. It took a long time and I'm tired of clothes. However, this is a HUGE weight off and our upstairs is a whole new place! Just in time, too, since we're painting the bonus room on Saturday.
I also hung up those Wordle pictures I framed for our new hampers, that we got at Target for $17 each. I think it will really help with organization in the bedroom and laundry room. There's a wedding photo we had in the apartment hanging above it.
I'm so glad I painted the closets white, too, because we'll never have to take down all that stuff to re-paint. Also, I'm glad we got the stackable floor closet system instead of the wall-mounted because we can take it with us if we ever move.

I was hoping that I would have pictures of our closet to show you, but not yet. John successfully put up HIS side, and hung up most of his clothes. And then he mowed the lawn. So I am still without. Ha. Someday.
Today I am painting the guest bathroom and am considering trimming out the hallway... but we'll see. John is picking up a tester of the paint for our master bedroom, and I'd like to get that knocked out since it's just a rectangle, nothing crazy. Then we'll be almost done...
Current to do list:
- Paint hallway
- Paint Master Bed and Bath
- Paint Bonus Room
- Install towel bars for downstairs bath
- Curtains for dining room
- Shelves for dining room?
Get your mind out of the gutter, I'm talking about some rad new frames I got for those Wordles I made for our master closet - jeesh! Check out this small transformation these little guys made while I did some tidying up around the house:
oooo you some ugly K-Mart frames.... $4 though!
ta-da!

and this little cutey for the upstairs hallway
Oh and I made this on Powerpoint (so sophisticated...) while watching Ellen. Just in case you're curious what our house is like. I hope to do an updated photo tour soon, too...
