My Purging is Over!!

Well, the purging is over for the moment anyway, and my shelves are finished!! I am so happy with how they cleaned up and are no longer the disgusting eyesore they were before (in full view of everyone!) How terrible {hangs head in shame}. But.. all they needed were some gorgeous baskets and a big throw out of all my useless crap and here is the finished product!!

And the "After" pic:

I am so impressed with the neatness and co-ordination and hope it stays with me!

"I did have a problem finding a suitable basket" {Lol, The Scarlet Pimpernel}. I went all around the local suburbs, 3 different shopping centres, a nursery and Bunnings looking for nice baskets that didn't cost a mint. But even at Eastwood (the home of Crap Shops) they were $25-$30 and were terrible quality. I ended up finding these 2 square baskets and the 2 shallow green lined baskets in Carlingford and did a massive Happy Dance in the middle of the shop!! The 2 square ones only cost $18 ea which I thought was a good price but the shallow dark baskets were only $14 ea, what a steal!! I also tidied and sorted all my SU stamps and they look pretty impressive now!!

I was so happy to have purged a lot of stuff, and I mean a lot!! I got rid of all my old CK mags from 2002-2006 which I hate just hanging around! They went off to Mum's Playgroup girls, hope they can use them! I don't really care if the kids just end up cutting them up! Some of the stuff in them is sooooo bad by today's scrappin standard (I know that sounds really bad, but it's so true!!)

So from now on I will be so much more creative cos I have a nice space in which to be creative!! Lol, lets see if that works!
