Spring Cleaning!

Five years ago, I wouldn't care if I lived in piles up to my knees and had to swim through gobs of clothing items and miscellaneous loose purse items to get to my pillow at night (ask my mom). Nowdays, I admit it, I am kind of freaky about cleaning. Bryan even told me last night as he was taking the toilet seat off per my request (so I could Lysol it) that he was going to call me Chandi Gellar (refer to Monica on F*R*I*E*N*D*S)!

So far, I've taken the light switches off the walls to clean them, taken a toothbrush to the floor in the bathroom, patched ALL holes in the wall, been on my hands and knees for an hour at a time, used Tilex, Lysol, 409, Windex, a mop, a broom, a vacuum, and about thirteen rags! The fun part is what each room looks like when I've worked my magic!

We finally got a dresser!!! Thanks to Jarica & Shilo, we no longer have clothes smoggling (yep, that's a word) through the crevices! Plus, it even matches our nightstands!

After cleaning the bathroom (and the plunger) and noticing how bare the walls were, I made these cute decorations with my own bare hands! [Note: The Gerber Daisies were the centerpieces at our wedding reception!]

And, for the finale, I made these DARLING frames for our wedding pictures (that we finally ordered in January). Thanks for the idea, Lenz!! [Note: I had these made a different way and Bryan came home one day and, BAM, I had changed them. Yep, didn't like them the first time, so I ripped them apart and started over.] YAY for the cute frames!!

I'm not gonna lie, "Happy Working Song," crossed my mind SEVERAL times while cleaning. I even sung it out loud and danced around with the broom once or twice while I was happily cleaning our house!
