Tackle it Tuesday — Guest Tackler, Michelle
This week, we have Guest Tackler, Michelle, from Michelle’s Family Journal.
Michelle is mum to a 4 year old girl McKenna and wife to Rob, a UPS driver. Michelle loves being a stay at home mum and enjoys baking, cooking, reading chick lit — and of course, twittering and blogging, as well as photography.
The Storage Closet
Our tackle this long weekend was the storage closet. We recently bought a deep freeze and wanted to move it into the closet out of the way. To do so it meant that we had to move two bookcases out into the dining room. One bookcase holds McKenna’s craft stuff as well as various games. While the other holds our enormous selection of cookbooks/ magazines. *ahem my magazines*
There is still one other bookcase in there that holds our books and cds.
We’re going to get some more shelving for various items that don’t currently have a home.
As well, and it’s not pictured, I bought grout cleaner my tiles are so clean now… I’m doing the happy sigh.

The Storage Room
I know the bookcase is old and soon to be replaced, so it matches the Baker’s Rack.

Like the end result??
Not shown is McKenna’s Dora Table which has a few things on it. But after having tackled all of it, I have a sore back…

THANKS so much for guest tackling today Michelle! GREAT work girl!!!
Wow, great job – I love your baker’s rack!
My tackle this week is all about back-to-school, since the today is our first day back. Speaking of which, I’m off to tackle my pillow for some much needed sleep before I have to get up MUCH earlier than I’ve gotten used to this summer!
Janice Thank you for letting me guest host
Deb You know what I got the Baker’s Rack a few years ago for about $40 when a store was closing.
Holy Moly Batman! That was quite a job. It looks very organized now though. Great job.
Blessings,
Kim
That is an awesome tackle!! Doesn’t it feel great?
Wow, that’s an amazing tackle. No doubt you have a sore back..hop in the tub for a soak because you deserve it.
OK, that was a huge tackle — much more than what I tackled this weekend…
You did an amazing job!
Tremendous tackle, Michelle! I tackled my supply drawer this past week while our boys tackled their closet, but only because the pole was falling down!
That really is an amazing transformation you have there, more of a makeover than a tackle, as well as a lot of hard work. Well done you. I suppose that’s why they call it Labour day.
Best wishes
Now that is a huge tackle!! What a terrific job you did! I am not surprised your back hurt after tackling that!! Doesn’t it feel good when you accomplish something like that!
Great job!
Thanks again for hosting this. I need all the motivation I can get.
Great job!
