Organizing Moment of the Week

These posts are more for me than for anyone else.  I have 32 organizing projects I want to complete this year and I thought it would be fun to blog about the projects and if I remember, post before and after pictures.  I think it will keep me motivated to complete the projects if I have to post about them so here we go.

Last week my organizing task was my nightstand.  I chose a simple project to start off my Organization Projects.  My nightstand has become a catch all in my bedroom.  I had several books that I would start but never finish sitting on the small shelf and on top of the night stand.  It is where I charge my phone, my sports watch, my Fitbit and my iPod each night so there were cords dangling in every direction.  There was an alarm clock that I don’t use taking up space and magazines piling up all around.  When  you walk in my bedroom your eyes go straight to the night stand and it was a cluttered mess.  So I decided to tackle the mess and make it look pleasant. 

I removed the alarm clock that I wasn't using and set up a charging station.  It helps maintain all of the cords for my devices.  I put only the books I am currently reading and using on the shelf.  The only part of the nightstand that was organized before was the drawer so I didn't have to change anything there.
