Organization Updates & Reflections… plus a sneak peek!


How is it already February?!Conversation-Hearts-Candy-Bowl-hands Crazy how time flies these days! We wanted to quickly check-in this morning with the SparkNotes version of our organization updates from January, while giving you a few hints about what’s in store this month here on the DIY Playbook. You ready?!

We loved the fresh start 2015 brought and used it to motivate ourselves to give some much needed attention to our everyday organizational dilemmas. We tried to tackle each organizational problem with an affordable, attainable solution. So far, these solutions have definitely held up! If you missed some of the projects, here’s a list of links from last month’s noteworthy organizational tutorials:
