Clutter Control

As a young girl, I found enjoyment in organizing my mother's pantry, removing every toy from the toy cabinet and then placing them back inside in an orderly fashion, straightening up the bathroom cabinet--making sure all the hairbands and what not where in their proper place, making sure my bed sheets were neatly folded down when I slipped into bed. That just doesn't seem right, but it is true. I still do enjoy having things somewhat organized and in their place, but not near like I did as a young girl, thankfully; I have a two year old after all. I have had the privilege of whipping up a few organizers for some great Etsy customers, which is always fun and a creative challenge. This is my latest custom Kitchen Organizer done in a terrific Amy Butler Fabric.
A pocket for mail and three hooks for keys and sunglasses.
The whole board is lined in cork for tacking up messages and notes.
The Tacks.

Fabulous organizer, being the younger sister to the Pink House Roots author I am not surprised to see all the wonderful things to help us get organized. Love the Italian spotlight.

Gorgeous! And I have to also admit that I used to enjoy cleaning my mother's desk in the office when I was young!
