I was on a Mission!!

Yup!! I came home today and saw that my Husband just purchased this awesome shelf for his closet.... I knew that the rest of the day I would be on a mission!!

I needed those shelves for my craft stuff!! It holds the 12X12 paper packs perfect!!

So I proceeded to ask nicely, explain how much neater my side of the office could be, shed a tear, flashed some puppy love eyes, asked him if he knows just how much I Love him....

Then I said I will show you.... I will make you a card that is so "me & you" You will have to give me your shelves.....

Ok.... so here it is:




And guess what!!!

Here is what I had:

And this is what I have now....

LOL!!  The only stipulation is I have to have the office completely clean tonight!!


ERRRR... Ok! it is going to be A Long night since is it 9:00 PM!!

Yippee!! Thanks Babe!

Oh and I am entering this into:
