A Bowl Full of Lemons: 2016 14 Week Challenge

Hi Everyone!
We are excited to announce that we have decided to participate in



A Bowl Full of Lemons 2016 14 Week Organization Challenge!!!
This challenge is  14 weeks with 1 "optional" week at the end.  The weeks are as follows:

2016 Home Organization Challenge Schedule
  • Week 1 (1/9/16) – Kitchen
  • Week 2 (1/16/16) – Pantry
  • Week 3 (1/23/16) – Dining Room
  • Week 4 (1/30/16) – Launch Pad

  • Week 9 (3/5/16) – Linen Closet
  • Week 10 (3/12/16) Bathrooms
  • Week 11 (3/19/16) – Office
  • Week 12 (3/26/16) – Playroom/Toys
  • Week 13 (4/2/16) – Laundry Room
  • Week 14 (4/9/16) – Garage
  • Week 15 (4/16/16) – Car (Bonus Week)
Since everyone's house is different, these weeks topics are more of a guide and you can change things around a little bit as you need to.  For example, I don't think it will take me a week to do our pantry as it is pretty small, the garage is Beau's department so I changed that week to the basement instead, also our dining room is more of an extension of the kitchen then a dedicated room so there isn't much to do in there.  However I expect things like our closets and the upstairs closets to take me a lot longer so I expect it to balance out over the 14 weeks.
Toni also includes a checklist for each week of basic things to do as you go through your week to help keep you on track.  She also has a Facebook group for people to post pictures and help to hold each other accountable.

We will be posting a separate post for each week of the challenge with pictures, a breakdown of that week as well as our opinion of it.

Check out Toni's post on the 2016 challenge here with includes printouts of each week and links to the Facebook group as well!

Happy organizing!!
