The Organizing Has Begun

Thursday I finally started my cabinet and drawer organization. As of now I still have four cabinets left:my dinnerware/glassware,cookware,misc dishes/glassware and under the sink cabinets. I figure it is easier to do a few areas at a time than try to do it all at once.

My goal is to streamline what I can. There are glasses,pyrex and corning ware that I never use. Those will go. I did get to clean out one of my lower cabinets and I have put all my candle and soap making supplies in it,finally getting all that out of my bedroom closet!

I never realized how dirty drawers and cabinets can get. It's amazing. It's great to do a little sprucing up.

Here are some photos of what I have done. The first couple photos I mixed up the "Before and After". They are "After and Before."

After
I had all my sewing items in the junk drawer,until it dawned on me that I could put everything in the drawers of the antique sewing machine. The machine doesn't work,but the drawers do!
The fun continues....... :)
