CAUTION[Zoned for Major Over Haul]

Sometimes I find that organizing can be, shall we say... a little daunting? Not because I don't want to do it(ehemm... of course), but because it doesn't look the way I want it to in the end. Everything still looks unorganized, or aesthetically unappealing. At moments likeFont size this I reorganize.

Not just little things, like the magazines on the coffee table or mini shampoo bottles in the bathroom cabinet. Nope. I'm talkin' major renovations here!

Recently I found myself facing this very frightful rut. My apartment in disarray, my belongings askew...my mind felt less clean than the dust bunnies nipping at my heals. So I knew it was time for the BIG over-haul.

If you decide to reorganize a room, don't start with the little things, start BIG. Move the dresser, the couch, the entertainment center... the BIG things. Doing all this might sound a little pointless, but it is most definitely not. Changing things around brings new perspective to a room and revitalizes it's energy. Also, as you plow on through, you'll find yourself easily tidying up the small stuff as you go simply because you're in THE ZONE... and if feels good to have a room reorganized, refreshed, and looking ready to go.

So, if that coffee table is holding more than it's weight in mail, or your coach is pinching more pennies than you are, it's time for some very BIG, very drastic measures.
