Weekend Wind-Down #136

Image
It's been another busy week at my house, how about you? Right now I'm juggling a few extra hours of work plus adding some new piano students which is great! Hopefully next week things are going to calm down a little, but in the meantime, I'm ready to wind-down and party with you all! Welcome! In case you aren't familiar with our party, here is the scoop: we like to learn new things, visit new blogs, and see what you all have been up to recently! We just ask that you link back to us somewhere on your site! From the sites that do link back, we will pick a handful of posts to feature. I also would love for you to drop a line in the comments section...let us know how you found our party, and what elements you enjoy. Thanks! I love to hear from my readers! Want to add another dimension to the party? Share it on social media and tag a fellow blogger that you think would be interested in joining the party! The more the merrier! Let's get on with the party!

I cleaned out my bathroom vanity's drawer, which is small and a great place to start. Read on to see what made the cut and what didn't (and my favourite way to store my makeup brushes!) and I have an organizing challenge for YOU! Here is the embarrassing "before" of my bathroom vanity drawer. Overflowing with stuff! I took everything out and cleaned it.
