40 bags update!

i am so happy i am doing this again this year!  40 bags in 40 days is such an easy way to de-clutter your house!  i must have done a lot of purging last year, because this year i don't feel like i have as much to purge, so  i am not sure if i will get to 40 bags, but that is okay.  it feels so good to get rid of stuff that we are not using and have no use for anymore!

a few weeks ago i picked up the GORM shelving at ikea and i have to say I LOVE it.  it was pretty easy to put together, but took a little bit longer then we thought.  if i had more storage room i would buy more, because you can just keep adding on to each shelving unit! i also picked up some new storage boxes they are the SAMLA and come in a few different sizes.  the 3 and 6 gallon are great and fit perfect on the GORM shelving.

looked forever trying to find a before...i don't have one, sorry.
but, here is what it looks like now and i LOVE it:
and a close up of the SAMLA boxes (3 gallon size)
total bags = 10
my lent goals this year are:
40 bags in 40 days
no snacking between meals
daily prayer in the morning with or without the girls
do you have any lent goals?

  1. I am doing "clean out 40 spaces"...not sure if that will lead to 40 bags. I am giving up superfluous shopping, complaining + dedicated prayer time! Good luck to you. Love the update idea :)

  2. I love that shelving! I may have to check that out. I'm going to spend March cleaning out too...that is a must. This lent season I'm giving up Coke and reducing my blog reading time. Your space looks very nice.
