My mother-in-law has become a very creative gift giver. This year for Christmas she gave me a set of flat file drawers and my incredible husband assembled them the same day (Christmas!) so I could use them immediately to start storing my "junk". The drawers are modern MDF, but fit in seamlessly with my vintage and antique pieces. The drawers sit on my cedar butcher counter and my bank of library card catalog drawers fit amazingly in a small space under the table. Looks like a single piece of furniture.
My mother is visiting for the holidays and is giving me a much needed fresh perspective on my clutter. Her war cry is, "throw it out!" A lot is going out, but I am also rediscovering things to sell in my etsy shop. Stay tuned.

Isn't organization all our dream and wish? I know I started on it about five hours ago and I got a couple things done. Many happy days in 2010 to you. I hope there are many creative moments and days and weeks and months! - Jeanne in Oregon
