It's finally done and I feel like my obsession with HGTV has paid off! I've mentioned in previous posts that one of my unofficial resolutions is to reorganize my life - I started with my bedroom. It's taken a little longer to finish than planned but I just put the finishing touches on last night and I'm ready to share. I decided to take this on in 2011, specifically my bedroom, because I really felt like I was in a rut and I wasn't inspired by my space anymore. I loved the color theme (black, white, and neutrals) that I did 2 years ago, but I hadn't changed my furniture layout in over 5 years and I had so much unneeded and unwanted "stuff" cluttering my space that it just made me feel claustrophobic. And that's not cool in your bedroom!

I am utterly mortified at how messy my room was in the before pictures, but in my defense I has just come back from a 2 week vacation so my suitcase had exploded over my room, and since we're all friends I thought I could share. As you can see I have shoe boxes everywhere, shopping bags from my latest retail conquests, random needless papers on my dresser, and the clutter goes on and on. Well no more! PS: Notice the small closet - thanks Boston architecture.

So cool! Thank you for sharing the before photos. I know it's not easy to show the chaos of our lives, but thank you for sharing. It will give me inspiration to be creative in my home.
