fun times

Charlie and I will be up to some fun stuff today. I'll post about it later, but here is a hint as to what we'll be doing...

instagram updates

Here are some recent updates from around our apartment!
I received the shams that I talked about in this post. Ignore the floral/stripes combo. I'll be replacing them with white sheets soon.
Bought a faux sheepskin to replace the one that Toby destroyed, but he loves laying on it so much we have decided to put it at the foot of our bed for him.
"Thanks, mom and dad!"
We found this gem while shopping at Urban recently. It's quite the quote to start the day, dontcha think? We also finally purchased new towels for our bathroom... and it only took me two years to make my decision! Also, that shower curtain situation will be fixed asap. I purchased that on clearance at TJmaxx my junior year in college... I've just been waiting until I can find something else that I like. There are some seriously fug shower curtains out there!
I received the fabric that I will be using for my inspiration board, but I like it so much I think I might be using it to reupholster our slipper chair in the living room. I'm going to wait until our new sofa comes before I make a final decision.

organization

Update : you can see our new pantry and organization in this post!

I'm constantly organizing and reorganizing our apartment, and with summer coming to an end I've been in crazy mode. In my most recent project, I organized our pantry using these multi-purpose binsstay fresh containers, and an expandable can shelf.

I also used a couple of undershelf baskets to hold dish towels and linens so they weren't taking up our precious drawer space, and put all of the extra food and doubles of items into one of my favorite striped bins.

I also got around to organizing all of my Mom's old photos by sorting and labeling them by year. This was a huge project that I've been putting off for awhile, and it feels so good to have it done. I filled up three of these photo storage containers!

I'm pretty sure I kept The Container Store in business for past two weeks!

What are some of your favorite organization projects?
