Utility Closet Makeover Week 1

January 2, 2023

Week 1 of the New Year New Room Refresh Challenge

Happy New Year, friends! Can you believe it’s 2023? With the new year, I like to organize things at home especially as we clean and pack away all the Christmas decor. I am joining some talented blogger friends and sharing room makeovers over the period of 4 weeks. Mine isn’t necessarily a room but one that I have wanted to redo for years. It’s our utility closet! It’s not as fun as a bedroom or bathroom but I’m hoping to really make this space look and function better for our family.  I hope you’ll follow along for the next few weeks to watch the progress on this utility room makeover. I’ll share my plans next week and you can see more of the progress over on my IG page.   

 

 

 

 

Thanks for reading, friends! Be sure to check out the other spaces my friends will be completing!

    This is such a necessary space to work on though! I know I need to focus on my own one day. Can’t wait to see what you do with it!

    I got a closet very similar, so definitely looking for inspiration! Sometimes the small spaces accomplishments bring just as much gratification as the big spaces

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! I figured it w Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! I figured it was time to document just how much the Min kids have grown the last year. Even Jules grew some more at college 😱Wishing you all a joyous holiday season.❤️🎄
Even though Jules isn’t that far, it’s still so di Even though Jules isn’t that far, it’s still so different without her in the house. I miss her big giant hugs, random crazy dance moves, impromptu jams on the piano, base guitar, harmonica, and ukulele. It’s a mix of excitement, happiness and sadness and I’m letting myself feel it all. I catch myself getting weepy throughout the day but I feel a deep sense of gratitude for this new season and what she’ll get to experience. 
Aside from the rug, the girls styled their space and it turned out so cute. I love that she’s rooming with her friend from 1st grade. How can my child be in college?!😭😢
