Cleaning Projects - Take One

I guess you could call it nesting... or just going through one of my phases. But I've decided to deep clean one room at a time (probably one a week, since it takes me awhile). So I started with The Kitchen. Now I didn't think about blogging it before I started, so I only have one before picture of my horrendous cupboard, but that will give you an idea.

You have to work with what you've got when you live in an apartment, so although I have ghetto green counter tops with basically orange cupboards, I'm quite proud of my cleaning/reorganizing efforts.

Food Pantry Before (note that there is like 3 feet between shelves, and is a MAJOR waste of space... so I get lazy and just start chucking stuff in there.. YIKES!!!!

After: Aahhhhhh (Also note, that because I usually can't see anything in my cupboards that I had 3 peanut butter jars... yes 3. )

Basically the entire kitchen is the poorest use of space I've ever seen. The architect for this place should be shot...

At least I like green right?

We bought that granite island to stick between the fridge and stove. Who doesn't put a counter space by the stove? As you can see from the picture above, that we have an amazing amount of counter space all together.

I feel SO much better! I even scrubbed baseboards and the walls :)


Next project: The Bathroom

I installed these not too long after we moved in... guess I didn't do a good job. RE-DO
