Today I Will...
...declutter just one area of my home. Since I posted my countertops as a problem area, I'm going to make a point that by the end of today, they are free of clutter. Anyone want to join me in one clutter spot of their own? This is not a challenge or a long-term thing. Just a statement that by the end of the day, one small area in your home will be conquered.

OK Amy, I'll join you! I'm going to organize the top of my dresser. It's a mess! If I feel extra ambitious I'll get the clutter off the diningroom table. Good luck with your counters!

I think I will join you too!
I am going to concentrate on my bathroom and the cabinets. There are bottles etc. in there that I haven't used in ages and probably should be pitched!! Good luck everyone!!

I'm in. I have four of DH's shirts to iron. They've been sitting on top of the dryer for way too long!

Count me in too! I think this is a great idea btw!

I really need to declutter my pots and pans cupboards...It's a messy jumble, and I know there are a few things we never use in there. I'd like to include in that my four kitchen drawers as well so that I can put my tupperware in them.

Done!!! Here they are! (Please excuse the camera strap that I didn't realize was dangling in front of the second picture!) Now, let's just see if I can keep them this clean!

Great job Amy, your countertops look great! Well I got the shirts ironed too, it didn't take that long and I was able to listen to Meet the Press at the same time.

Well it took me 2 days to get to it, and even longer to post it, but here are my counters after all the clutter was removed.

And the other side.
I have a very small kitchen. It doesn't feel small because of the bay window in the eating part, but just looking at the functioning kitchen, man its tiny.
