Radvent Day 2: Organizing

Focus on one drawer, table, or surface today and spend 15 minutes making it pretty! (And take a pretty picture afterward to motivate yourself!)

Okay, so I should be doing some homework right now, but I decided for this to clean off my dresser. Here's what it looked like before:

It's basically just a dumping ground for papers and clothes. I put my jacket on top when I get home instead of hanging it up in the closet. Also, any mail that I get and open up right away ends up going on top of the dresser, as well as important papers that I don't want to lose. The drawers on the left hold a bunch of random things like my nail polish and some sewing stuff as I don't have a sewing box. I also have my hair dryer and straightener on the right side, along with a bunch of hair stuff like elastics and bobby pins in the white basket on the side.

It took me a bit longer than 15 minutes, which I didn't expect. I turned on my Dance, Dance playlist and went for it. I hung up all the clothes, or put them in the hamper, and put all the paperwork either in the garbage if it was junk or in my important papers drawer if I needed to keep them.

And here's what it looks like now (ignore the rest of the mess in the room, lol):

I framed a picture that one of my roommates drew for me. I also stood up my Advent Calendar (which still hasn't been touched yet), and organized everything else to where it needs to be. And now my dresser is organized :) There are a bunch of other places that really need to have the same thing done, but I can only do so much :)
