I just got done spending wayyy too much time organizing Christmas ornaments (the ones that didn't fit on the tree, now that's sad)! I think I'm going to get rid of a few, since I actually bought too many (of the simple, plain ones). Since last Christmas, I've been trying to think of the most efficient way to store ornaments. I saw something on Pinterest last year, which was gluing solo cups to cardboard and putting the ornaments in the cups to protect them. We tried it, and most of our ornaments didn't fit :( It wasn't very efficient or minimal either. So I thought of another more simple idea: storing ornaments in shirt boxes. I know a lot of families do that, but it seems to be the best way. I've collected 3 different sizes. Normally, I would just get one size (since I'm OCD like that), but since I'm trying to take up the least amount of space possible, different sizes are appropriate. I went through the ornaments for my mini-tree too, since I never end up using all the ornaments I have.
Man, I hate how OCD I'm feeling right now. But maybe it's good? I'm working off of the motivation I've had. I've been trying to get my "craft room" back in working order. It's been very messy for the last few months. I can't wait until I'm back to doing my make-up in here. It gets way too hot in the master bathroom! I literally sweat the entire time I'm doing my make up, even after closing the vent. If I turn the heat down, it gets even icier downstairs. Our heating isn't the best. It's always boiling upstairs and icy downstairs. I'm just really happy I'm finally starting to go through all my stuff in this room. I've been putting it off for a long time, but it feels good to finally do it. Now I just have to sell, and donate things.
