Ahhhh, January! The promise of a new year. One of the resolutions I hear people make (in addition to losing weight) is to get organized!

If you look back at some of the posts in our organizing category, you'll see some ideas and some organizational before & afters. Here are some of my favorites before and after organizing projects:

We'll be posting more organizational projects soon. One of my goals for 2011 is scrapbook related: organize some of my digital photos, and keep up better with getting my photos printed!
What are your organizational goals for 2011? Share them here. Let's keep each other accountable!

Nice to meet you :-)
Staying organized is an ongoing challenge for me - especially in the master bedroom which always ends up becoming a place to dump things.
I'm going for a complete bedroom transformation this month.
I'd love to have the accountability police on my case. OK, here goes...change water filter, caulk leaky windows, deep clean bathrooms, bleach old grout. I'm also going to paint my bedroom. And lose weight LOL. Hope you'll stop by. Loved this post. Jane
We have been cleaning all week. I can see the top of the counter and it is wonderful! Have a Happy New Year!

I sure wish things would organize themselves...but since they won't I guess I should get started...thanks for the gently persuasion!!! Have a wonderful week!!!
Thanks for the shout out! Happy New Year + Happy Cleaning :)
I need to organize my garage - it's so overcrowded with stuff I can barely get to my central vac!
Its my main goal this year to clean up and get more organized.
I already went through my christmas totes and got rid of thinngs that i didnt use this year that I didnt think I would use in upcoming years.
I need to get stuff out of boxes and labeled and put away properly and clean out my closet of clothes I never wear and will probably never ever wear again.
im following you now and cant wait to read more of your blogs! :)
Cleaning accountability, great idea! I would love it if you would come and link up to my new link party,
Masterpiece Monday, at my blog, Boogieboard Cottage. The link is already up, I hope you can join the party!
Happy New Year!

Hello -
We stayed home since it was so cold here in Washington. I have decided this year not to make any resolutions because I never do them. This year when I think of something I will just do it. I guess that's my resolution huh? I'll be following you... Please follow me as well.

January is the perfect month to get organized. It's cold outside (or at least where I am) and the new year just puts you in that mood. I have already organized a few closets which I plan to post about soon. My major goal is to find two missing years of video tapes of my kids from when my daughter was two and three years old. They've been missing for years. I have a few more closets to go through...I really hope they are there. She's ten now and I really want to see those times again. I linked over from cricket design. You have a great blog. Hope you come check mine out at www.diybydesign.blogspot.com.
Thanks for the link to CleanMama!
Thanks for linking up :) I am trying to get organized too!
I'm with Clean mama! My month is going to be focusing on purging, organizing & taking care of those looming to-do items that have been there for months (or years).
Hey Rob and Laurie! Thanks for linking up to Thrifty Thursdays. How did you know I needed to clean and organize?? Blessings!

I would love if you would add my Organizing Mission Monday from my Organize with Sandy blog and my Wicked Sweet Wednesday from my Chat with Sandy blog to your link list tab. Thanks!

Perfect timing to find this post! My goal is to organize my baking cabinet. It's where I keep all the ingredients for baking separate from other food items. I also hope to organize our home video discs/tapes and Project Life album!
Oh, I love this idea of the cleaning month!
I'm a new follower from tidymom, have a great weekend!
