Mission Organization…Antiquing in My Cabinets

So the other day while it was raining, to be honest I think the sky might have been falling! It was really coming down. Anywho.

I got busy in the kitchen going through the cabinets. You know how they get when you just shove things where you can’t see them when company is coming over. You totally forget what you have!

Anyways…This is what I found during my organizing.

Great job. Doesn't it feel good to get that all cleaned out and organized. I love the cake holder.

Ahhhh, clean cabinets! When you find out what type of paint to use on that plate, please share! I have a white platter that I want to paint on. Super cute! When I do stuff for school like that, I use acrylic plate. But it is usually not stuff used around food, so I want to know what the correct glaze - that is washable- should be used for stuff like that. ;) good job on organizing! Maybe you have motivated me to get to work on my cabinets! LOL

I need to go through my cabinets, too. I need to organize, and also get rid of stuff that we don't use.

Cute cake plate, can't wait to see what you do with yours!

Doesn't make you feel like you really accomplished something when you clean out a cabinet or two? Beautiful job!

Cleaning out cabinets is such a yucky job (I think it is anyway) but so rewarding when it's done! I just did the same thing this week :o)

I love that cake plate!

Niiiiiice!! I swear if I had a dime for every plastic cup I have, I'd quit my job at the library and live on the interest! Somebody needs to clean the cabinets out around here. But first somebody needs to pry my (I mean HER) fingers off the keyboard and get away from the blogging world for 5 minutes! ha ha Have a good weekend ~
