I would love to de-clutter, but whenever I think of organization, I imagine clear plastic bins with labels attached. I guess that works, but it’s just so boring … and ugly.

But with my boyfriend threatening to move out, I decide it’s time to tackle this clutter problem. Luckily, there’s a bunch of crafty people on the web who know a thing or two about stylish organization, whether it’s for makeup, accessories, or hair tools. If I get started now, I think I might have the kitchen table cleaned up in an afternoon — or, alright, more like a week. Ready to join me?
