In my effort to become more organized and run our house more efficiently, I started the 21 Day Challenge. Day 1 was the junk drawer but since I used a computer desk drawer as a junk drawer, I decided to go ahead and just do the desk on day 1. The computer desk is actually the day 2 challenge, so I am not that off. Anyhow, to say that our desk was a mess was an understatement. As I mentioned before, there are brief periods of organization and neatness here, but they always fall by the wayside due to lack of functionality. This time I actually took the time to make sure the desk is functional so it will stay neat and organized. I followed the tips on the blog, A Bowl Full Of Lemons and began my project. I purchased a few things at Target and got busy. This project was fairly easy and very rewarding. Now, we can use our desk not only for a desk but also as our home command center. (Next post will be about it). Enjoy the before and afters.
