cleaning & organizing throughout the week





++ bottles are from mountain rose herbs++

i am not a cleaner. let me just get that out there right now. most of the time our floors are covered in a thick layer of dust & muddy paw prints. often our kitchen table has a cup or two & my latest project scattered about it with a vase of flowers for good measure. i feel like i can admit that to you, though.

here’s the thing. this past weekend was a cleaning spree of sorts. i scrubbed the kitchen floors, i folded all of our clothes. i even organized. the. pantry. i know. i purchased some beautiful bottles just before christmas as a bit of inspiration to get the pantry in working order. it took almost two months to get to the task as the bottles just sat in my office, but finally! our pantry is organized, cleaned & functional. it feels great, too!

as you may know, i am all about changes. i want to change! i realize that our house will never look perfect, but i am scheming up ways to make our home just a little more clean throughout the week. perhaps a cleaning schedule will work? chores for each day?

i would love to hear your thoughts on the ways you keep your home functioning throughout the week. i would love to hear what big chores you do & when each week. let me know. i can’t wait to hear your thoughts.

love,
natalie

in the studio no. 2

cleaned the studio yesterday afternoon.
organization feels so stinkin’ great. i need more of it in my life.

just a few things that have helped-
+ binders for sorting various articles on cooking, gardening, home preservation, etc.
+ baskets, boxes, jars for different odds & ends
+ an inspiration board with thoughtful words, pretty drawings, favorite photographs
+ only keeping things that are used & well-loved. {this was inspiring}

thank you all for the support yesterday. i am excited for tomorrow!

love,
natalie
