Incentive

Although I absolutely love and am energized by completing small decorative projects around the house, my motivation often comes in waves. And for whatever reason, I have not been terribly motivated lately. But, alas, I started thinking of a couple organizational additions I'd like to add and along the way found some glimmers of motivation for a few dangling ended projects that need to be completed. So, as extra motivation I decided I cannot purchase the fun, new additions until I complete the few things still lingering on my list. And what do you know, that sparked a wave of motivation! :) These are the things I'd like to add:

It's a magnetic board that I'd hang in my laundry room which is also where we walk in from the garage, pass through to get to the office AND to the restroom that most guests use when visiting our home. I will put invitations, prized school work, etc. on it.

This, I will hang in the office for those magazines and prayer letters and other things that I can't always stop right then and read when sorting the mail. Do y'all think the fact that it has no sides would be annoying? I LOVE the wrought iron but wonder about the missing sides. Anyway, even if not THIS one, something along the same lines is a must.

Maybe I'll post pics of the completed projects as an EXTRA incentive to get them done and get these things ordered! By the way, they are both from Ballard Designs...one of my absolute favorites for home decor and organizing.
