Beautiful Dining Room by designer, Elizabeta Skorucak.
This Home Organization blog entry is not as much a tip as it is a question: “Does this happen to any one else?”
The Dining Room table. It’s just sitting there, empty, rarely used for “dining” and just begging to serve as a dumping place for all things paper: halfway completed school projects, Girl Scout administrative forms, library books due to go back and of course, mail (the overflow pile.) Remember, this series is Home Organization in the REAL world — that’s my real world.
So, do you find this to be true: As the dining room table goes, so goes the rest of the house? Once it gets to the point where I see more paper than wood, somehow the rest of my home follows suit. It’s psychological I guess. Maybe it’s because my dining room is visible from much of the first floor and seeing it cluttered just puts a damper on my organizational spirit. In the same vein, a tidy table gives me a boost.
Anywho, if you can find a tip of some sort in this blog entry, that’s great. But I’d love to hear from you: let me know if you experience the same weird connection between the dining room table and the rest of your house.
Me, I’m going to clear away this week’s mess from my dining room table, which is pictured above…just kidding.
Love Your Home,
Sue
