well organized chaos in this house

there is a method to my madness,

for this craziness and

frustration over the timing of all the shit that needs to happen in my life right now and 

 for this move of mine.....

Boxes marked :

No. 3  - Back of North Carolina storage;

first in the moving truck

gotta keep but don't need soon.

No. 2 - Middle of truck and into Jeffy's house; Clothes, kitchen boxes, some furniture,  craft shit

No. 1 - Front/door of truck and using up until move; Tools, bed, dressers, couch, tv, roadtrip clothes, bathroom stuff, laptops, printer, fans, paperwork, kitchen boxes, more craft shit.  (at this writing, it's the end of Sept and i have the whole month of October before we want to leave.

i had to leave out some creative "things" to do or i'll go crazy.

so, with that said, the secret's out!!!

now you know that i'm a little anal

about "some" kinds of things.

the problem with wanting to be this organized, is that i'm FOREVER thinking i forgot something.

sheeeeeeeshhhhhh

So here's the bedroom, AFTER we removed one dresser from that wall.  it's in the closet now

this morning the dining room looked like this

kind of like a staging arena 

this is just before Jme went to the storage room with a load

lol

a load of boxes!

stay turned for more pics from the OCD girle

and here's something for you since you sat through the moving stuff

and

so what if he's old....

Pookie Update

he won't look at me

he's getting good at ignoring me

unless i have food in my hand

could it be because of the 9mm in the black case on top of his PRISON!!!

again he won't look at me

he has no clue what's in that box....

holiday gift ideas and/or just plain ole ideas!!

no explanation is needed for the next two pictures

Pretzel dipped in chocolate and then dipped again

wish list for family members

(this would be so cute to a family with kids)

using embroidery hoops, holiday fabric, ribbon, clothes pins and fabric markers

darling gift idea for that special bff that likes to craft or inspires to....

paint terra cota pots and add ribbon and utencil 

for a special birthday girl

once you gather up the materials for this, may as well made two or three, doncha think?

this would be so cute as a wedding gift.  and you can use fabric pens

special hostess gift or neighbor gift or stocking stuffer

(containers available at The Container Store)

garage sale mugs or tea cups

dollar store glasses and a bag of twigs from the flower mart or Michael's

fangs from the Party City store and pumpkins from the grocery store

an old frame, some chicken wire, moss and succulents

very festive and easy

and this is cute and easy

cute give away

Jme is definitely getting these next Valentine's Day

Rolo's, red construction paper, and black cording.

how simple is this?

Wahooooooooooooooooooo!

I love you!

how easy is this...

soooooo many different ways you can jazz up a pair of comfortable heels that you just can't bear throwing away.

link for the how-tos for these lace heels

how about rhinestones or another kind of sparkly thing?

they have the silver studs at Michael's and are stick on.  just use a stronger glue and wahla!!!!!
