Organized or Not--- Swap and Hop
Oh yes Ma'am... time for another Swap and Hop. Today's theme--- organization.

But based on a few of your comments from earlier this week, if you don't want to share an organization tip, you can still participate. You can share where you hide things when company comes.

So, here's the deal...

1. Put something on your blog today about organization... or your lack thereof. Pictures are great but just telling about a good idea is fine as well.

2. Feel free to capture the button above and post it. The button is not required but please do link back to this post on my site so others can enjoy our fun.

3. Once your post is ready, come back to my site and sign up in the Mr. Linky box below. You may want to put your name and then a one or two word description of your organization idea in parenthesis. For example: Lysa TerKeurst (organizing jewelry)

4. If you don't have a blog, you can leave your organization tip in the comment box. Even if you have a blog and do the Mr. Linky--- still leave a comment. I will be drawing 3 WINNERS from the comments and the links to get an autographed copy of Karen Ehman's new book, "The Complete Guide to Getting and Staying Organized."

I will announce the winner of my CD from yesterday's post and the three winners from today's post on my blog this weekend. Have FUN!!!

Here's my tip:

If you have a tangled mess of necklaces and bracelets here is an affordable solution: a jewelry board! I can't take credit for this... it's my organized friend Debbie's idea.

These are black framed bulletin boards that you can find at Walmart or Target. We simply placed plastic pushpins in spaced out intervals and then hung the necklaces and bracelets in place. I have two jewelry type belts hanging on the wall beside the boards. All of this hangs on a wall inside my closet. I love it!!!


Now, for the place I hide things if I'm in a pinch and company is coming... the upstairs hall way. Oh dear. Shhh... don't tell anyone.
