Sprucing up the kitchen

Happy Memorial Day bloggers! I hope everyone enjoyed a fun filled day with your families. I spent my morning watching my amazing hubby run the Bolder Boulder 10K. Then we had a cookout and played around the house all day. I love days like these when we don't really have too much planned and we can run on our own time!

Since I'm officially off for summer break, I've decided to take on some much neglected areas of my home that I can improve upon. More specifically, clean up and organization projects. Today I tackled my under the counter nemesis...the tupperware cupboard!

Here is the before picture:



Seriously, now where did that top go?

Here is the after:



It is amazing what two super cheap organizers can do for a cluttered mess. I purchased some plastic baskets for the tupperware tops, one for square tops and one for round tops. Not too shabby if I do say so myself!

Next, I changed up the centerpiece on my kitchen table. Well, I added a centerpiece rather. Lately I've been wiping down the table after dinner and calling it good but since it is summer, I suppose I can muster up enough strength to place a pretty centerpiece back on the table after dinner.

Here is what I came up with:



I just added some rattan decorative balls and fake artichokes from Pier One to an old wooden bowl that I've had laying around. Pretty.

Tomorrow I am heading to an AddVantage math training (all week) and I am so excited. I'll post about it when I am officially a trained expert! Have a great week everyone.
