Spring Into Organization 2012: Cleaning Up Our Message Board

DIY, Organization 2012, Uncategorized

Wow! This is what our message center looks like? I had to do something about this. After having twins last year, my life honestly has been insane! It has been a huge adjustment not only on me but my daughter (Doodle) too because I went from being an outside the home working Mom to staying at home full-time. Organization 2012 is now my mission. Over a week ago I came across Laura from Orgjunkie.org's post about Spring Into Organization. I've become addicted looking at some of these posts. I've already started on organizing my laundry room, my family room desk, and changing table. The best part being some of the ideas are so simple you can do it in an hour or a couple hours!

Walmart: Fabric Clearance

crafts, DIY, Uncategorized, Walmart

Around the Washington D.C. metro area several Walmart stores are being upgraded to SuperCenters. I haven't been to Walmart in a couple weeks and I forgot how crazy the store is with the construction going on. This weekend we stopped in at the Walmart in Woodbridge, VA and discovered that they put ALL of the fabric on Clearance by the bolt. So whatever the bolt amount per yards X $3-$4 equals the cost. There were some bolts that had 10+ yards so they cost about $30 but most were less than that. If you are need of some fabric or are like me and love fabric, you might want to check out this Walmart or other Walmarts that are going under SuperCenter remodeling. I found these ranging from $4.97 -…
