Operation Office Organization

The best thing about a long weekend?  A short work week!  I hope you are refreshed and had a great weekend.  My family (Dad included) rented a boat on Sunday and spent a few wonderful hours on the lake.  I had some moments where I just soaked it all in that we were all together and enjoying this day, enjoying life.  How beautiful.  Back at home on Monday, I spent a good chunk of the day getting down and dirty with my office closet.  A major clean out and reorganization was necessary.  Did you do any cleaning and organizing over the weekend?  Seems like the change of seasons is upon us and before I felt ready to bust out the fall decor, I needed to get some things in order. <br /><br /><br /><br />Ready for a few scary pics?<br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMQqY1Le7lWgy6c_ntBwo8RPG9e_VYwgb1X4Igi9qOUu8AtYk1zJOlYfyO49M5Vg_VNJf6wbl3FMnEWU3rtCUg72S6jJx964Ak5a8g5NXe1YxbLItI_XUDvBHV_I-HMGJG3P0UAL0-dCI/s1600/Honey+We're+Home+Office+Closet.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMQqY1Le7lWgy6c_ntBwo8RPG9e_VYwgb1X4Igi9qOUu8AtYk1zJOlYfyO49M5Vg_VNJf6wbl3FMnEWU3rtCUg72S6jJx964Ak5a8g5NXe1YxbLItI_XUDvBHV_I-HMGJG3P0UAL0-dCI/s1600/Honey+We're+Home+Office+Closet.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />Yikes.  It always gets worse before it gets better.  I emptied the closet contents and it covered the entire office floor.  I've got it all put away now, and just have the little details to sort through.  I plan to purge old photos, documents, and files this week.  Then, I need to add labels- I've got sticky notes up for now identifying what's in each box. </div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr8v0nom2iE2jAYSM-zn5VHkmWnvGIBFy_p44EPF2UNWOh3OzwyhX953Vr6yBFUBPWdAwce1dBG7za4D1Wx1Q4EHYHil38BeAnqwjeGsj-ykdRz5tkGK4N4nlX5DKiIpC4WyMaKqQYGhY/s1600/Honey+We're+Home+Office+Closet.16.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr8v0nom2iE2jAYSM-zn5VHkmWnvGIBFy_p44EPF2UNWOh3OzwyhX953Vr6yBFUBPWdAwce1dBG7za4D1Wx1Q4EHYHil38BeAnqwjeGsj-ykdRz5tkGK4N4nlX5DKiIpC4WyMaKqQYGhY/s1600/Honey+We're+Home+Office+Closet.16.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><span style="text-align: left;">Here's to being able to see the floor again!  This isn't what it looks like fully packed back up, but it's the only shot I have so far!</span></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />My campaign with Nestlé® Pure Life® Purified Water ends this week.  Thank you to everyone who has visited their <a href="http://linqia.cc/c78f672">Facebook page</a>! :) </div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />This year, <a href="http://linqia.cc/c78f672">Nestlé® Pure Life® Purified Water</a> wants you to hydrate healthfully by Pledging to drink more water.

Stacked/Layered Bracelets

Are you a fan of the stacked (or layered) bracelet trend?  I never thought I'd get on board because I tend to be a minimalist with jewelry and it used to bug me when bracelets banged against each other on my arm.  But, I love the look on other women, so I've been giving it a try.  I think I'm converted.  Below is a quick instagram pic (@Honeywerehome) from earlier this week.<br><br /><div><br /><br></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSsmD9ZZidJVFCkgu7U78SKpeQee3KygPLJ4P_bYnFoJ4mAcgwSZf-yfGaA87DbnYKGgnpVBjax9Lr94BwwdU6pSbJmBiwRsxe-PDTyJfEgRXs_9vY8b3oUrZ6mDWwQ4i9SbTQIQT2fF0/s1600/Honey+We're+Home+bracelets.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSsmD9ZZidJVFCkgu7U78SKpeQee3KygPLJ4P_bYnFoJ4mAcgwSZf-yfGaA87DbnYKGgnpVBjax9Lr94BwwdU6pSbJmBiwRsxe-PDTyJfEgRXs_9vY8b3oUrZ6mDWwQ4i9SbTQIQT2fF0/s1600/Honey+We're+Home+bracelets.jpg"></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />From left to right: </div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />Henri Bendel</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />Stella & Dot</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />Stella & Dot</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />Express</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />Bebe (but I've seen similar at Macy's and other stores)</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />Considering I've collected quite a few bracelets over the years, I ordered a <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001HSNCDG/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B001HSNCDG&linkCode=as2&tag=howereho-20">jewelry holder</a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=howereho-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B001HSNCDG" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" width="1"> on Amazon and I'm so happy with how organized my bracelets are now.  It's a 3-tier white leatherette stand that is really sturdy. </div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDHoaHKhApMFOVI5YTB_O9mfMtcLAr3WarUKc8zmIIl1kwKBuClmEGUfyQbqwFnljjf2hxO4TAajWL2_duz6oyg4suLvVsvLS83WwJHwpUHxCo6fGr4Np0zNJSpcq3DaFBCSHC8w4KdB4/s1600/Honey+We're+Home+Bracelets.55.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDHoaHKhApMFOVI5YTB_O9mfMtcLAr3WarUKc8zmIIl1kwKBuClmEGUfyQbqwFnljjf2hxO4TAajWL2_duz6oyg4suLvVsvLS83WwJHwpUHxCo6fGr4Np0zNJSpcq3DaFBCSHC8w4KdB4/s1600/Honey+We're+Home+Bracelets.55.jpg"></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><a href="http://www.honeywerehome.com/2013/08/stackedlayered-bracelets.html#more">Read more »</a>

I'm forever rearranging the items in my home office bookshelf.  I have the large Ikea Expedit which is perfect for housing books, containers, photos, decorative objects, etc.  Each cube is 12x12 so there's lots of space to play with. <br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0J6nX_GOLx4NB0bQ9kO_xA60DtMRztIcbFlRFURITmEgma6eoYYwEVELAzfEwFMMrMJLLKu0k68PT5OgHeQgRODZQfAq59HonqtTPV5oC2MgYMWgdyNGmvR7wbxMEYjZwphZLCOlaqXg/s1600/Honey+We're+Home+Bookshelf.3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0J6nX_GOLx4NB0bQ9kO_xA60DtMRztIcbFlRFURITmEgma6eoYYwEVELAzfEwFMMrMJLLKu0k68PT5OgHeQgRODZQfAq59HonqtTPV5oC2MgYMWgdyNGmvR7wbxMEYjZwphZLCOlaqXg/s640/Honey+We're+Home+Bookshelf.3.jpg" width="424" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />While the contents of the bookshelf were generally very colorful, it used to be dominated by aqua.  Now, I'm going for more pinks, blushes and golds in the bookshelf.  Not wanting to purchase more magazine files, I opted to cover my existing aqua ones in wrapping paper.  </div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcXUPJGzWG8h4etaG7Vwn95KOScht6qP4ELURRBxvre6Zk2p4SOWfRnLh7P5rOAab_Pvp6LKLxqiLK_WBzQ7-8QxgHiKjth_rZ9jM_-azYZOqvbkygQhk7FPXYsgDufLM78J_va5TWzl4/s1600/Honey+We're+Home+Rifle+Paper.8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcXUPJGzWG8h4etaG7Vwn95KOScht6qP4ELURRBxvre6Zk2p4SOWfRnLh7P5rOAab_Pvp6LKLxqiLK_WBzQ7-8QxgHiKjth_rZ9jM_-azYZOqvbkygQhk7FPXYsgDufLM78J_va5TWzl4/s640/Honey+We're+Home+Rifle+Paper.8.jpg" width="424" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />I'm a huge fan of <a href="http://riflepaperco.com/">Rifle Paper Co.</a> designs and knew I would not quickly tire of looking at their latest floral patterns.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiU-Ja1CfXOdBESoV2ADWOP90mM8z3thrpCceecE-Z5_EpyBDtlBetQyPm5E2DDyVznkybOMqsNtCToZR1sWxVWEKVyzmn66LJZUVDX7xZIZ2-JVkE8VtOMJQx-nO8XJLlzP5a5TTH4utI/s1600/Honey+We're+Home+Rifle+Paper.17.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiU-Ja1CfXOdBESoV2ADWOP90mM8z3thrpCceecE-Z5_EpyBDtlBetQyPm5E2DDyVznkybOMqsNtCToZR1sWxVWEKVyzmn66LJZUVDX7xZIZ2-JVkE8VtOMJQx-nO8XJLlzP5a5TTH4utI/s640/Honey+We're+Home+Rifle+Paper.17.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />In order to save paper- each roll only comes with three sheets and I had six files to cover- I opted to take a short cut and only cover the back and part of the sides.

Organized Kitchen // Bread in a Basket

We are definitely not a carb-free family.  In fact, we have so much bread that it won't fit into a typical bread bin.  I've tried putting the bread in a drawer (that didn't last long) and in the pantry (but who wants to walk to the pantry to get a piece of bread to toast?).  So, the bread pretty much was just sitting out on the kitchen counter next to the toaster.<br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisArsLseDn-Fg1H5PFwb3k0Yrr9KS0iyVGhREBgF5qLDE0NCAok7K4rMaRP07zo1NvSApwa8SHSVRGfns5QRcX9kKIsLzZTkn1LDVCThTGugGblIO3JYehD1DEy5SNA9z0MBFwbyObX98/s1600/Honey+We're+Home+Bread+Basket.07.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisArsLseDn-Fg1H5PFwb3k0Yrr9KS0iyVGhREBgF5qLDE0NCAok7K4rMaRP07zo1NvSApwa8SHSVRGfns5QRcX9kKIsLzZTkn1LDVCThTGugGblIO3JYehD1DEy5SNA9z0MBFwbyObX98/s640/Honey+We're+Home+Bread+Basket.07.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />What is all that bread anyway?
