Reorganizing

I posted here a few short weeks ago that I would be re-doing my bedroom and sharing images of the "after". Well, since then, I decided to make an even bigger change and move to the North End of Boston. Thus, I'll have my very own little two-room studio to decorate instead!

Over the next couple of weeks I'll be sharing some decorating inspiration and ideas from across the interwebs. I figured today's post better start at square one: organization. In case you hadn't figure it out already, I'm a girl who owns an excessive amount of clothing, make-up, kitchen gadgets, etc. A studio apartment doesn't exactly offer the most grandiose amount of storage so I used this post from my best friend, Michelle,  as well as Pinterest  to find fun, alternative ways to store and organize. Below I've shared some of my favorites. You can also visit my 'Pretty Organization' board on pinterest to find the source of each image! 

The Ikea Expedit unit not only adds extra storage but extra counter space. It also  warms up  the area and helps turns it into a cozy dining nook

 

Make-shift desk area + pretty hanging bowls for storage. 

Heels hung up on the wall double as art. (I'd have to find someplace else to hide the ol' running shoes)

Lucite organization keeps this desk looking free of clutter, cute and sleek.

Curtain rod with hooks to display bags. Pure genius. Also love how the vanity serves a dual purpose as a functional desk area.

Love to additional of shelving to add storage as well as the turquoise, cream, and beige color theme to keep the look cohesive.

Great shoe organization on an Ikea budget= more shoes. Brilliant.
