Creating a Christmas Binder

Is it just me, or do you find that throughout the month of December you have 100 post-it notes with 'to-do' lists, gift ideas, and things you could possibly make, floating around the house? The more blogs and magazines I read, the more ideas I get from Pinterest, and the more DIY projects I think will be easy to just 'whip up', the sooner I realise I am taking on too much. As part of my 'Getting Ready for Christmas' series, today I'm sharing the binder I've put together that is [hopefully!] going to help me stay on track throughout this busy Christmas period!

A simple kitchen storage solution

Today I'm sharing an easy storage solution for the kitchen. I try to do a good kitchen clean-out and purge once a quarter - this involves removing everything from a drawer/cupboard, giving it a good wipe-down, finding new storage ideas if necessary, re-organising, and seeing if there's anything I can get rid of before I put everything back in. I find that kitchens can really accumulate a lot of 'stuff', so I like to do this on a fairly regular basis to minimize the clutter.
