Well, I did it!! Week 1 & 2 The Kitchen & Pantry are done!
Everything was pulled out, wiped down, sorted and re-organized. I got rid of a lot of unused things.... and a few things I used but during the clear out I found things that I liked more to replace the them.
So it was a LOT of work, but well worth the piece of mind I'm enjoying after the clear out-or "purge" as they call it in organization-land.
Below is the overall BEFORE photo and then the AFTERS of all the areas of my postage stamp sized kitchen. (Don't mind the BEFORE mess- it's not always that bad- it was particularly bad that day because I had made lasagna and fresh baked bread and everything was out of place and before I cleaned up after eating.-I promise, I'm not that nasty.)

| This floor- I detest it. That's it after 3 hours with bleach and a scrub brush and washcloth on my hands and knees. Upside- it hides actual dirty spots. Downside- it NEVER EVER looks CLEAN! |
 |
| All Tidy. |
 |
| This is my "Pantry". |
 |
| Small appliance storage and hot and cold cereals. |
 |
| New Fridge/Freezer. Just a quick wipe-out and tidy for this. |
 |
| I'm still looking for a storage solution for the K-cups. I did find one just thinking how to implement it. |
 |
| The kitchen needs some serious upgrades and repairs. I'm not big on renting. |
 |
| Our new beverage station. The canisters are from hubby's childhood kitchen and we treasure them. |
I have moved the magnetic schedule to the side of the fridge so it looks neater...... and as an added bonus we bought hubby a new computer station for his office and set it up, too.
It was tough!! It took 3 days longer than I thought it would, but as I did two weeks challenge it didn't take as long as it should have.
So- next weeks challenge room is the dining room. Another shared space as this is our Dining room/Living room and Launch Pad. Probably the tidiest room in the entire house most of the time.
So I'll have 3 weeks time to complete those 3 areas/one room. I figure it will take an entire week. Photos will follow
