It seems like this is a time of year when many of us get the urge to purge and organize our homes. I don’t know why we tend to do this at the beginning of the year. Maybe it’s because we view it as a fresh start in so many areas? I too love having an organized home. Sometimes though, it takes a while to
This post is sponsored by Wayfair. All opinions of their quality Home Decorating products are 100% my own. Our family room got a little spruced up for the holidays and I am loving how it came coming together.
