Chevron Fresh


This image (which has been floating around on my desktop for....at least two months) inspires me to de-junkify. You know how it is---the dresser top gets cleaned off, only to become host to a pile of jewelry...the nightstand gets cluttered with books and papers...

I think for fall cleaning I need to take a trip to the Salvation Army and get RID.OF.STUFF.

In other news... how cool is the gray and white chevron-print canvas? 
LIGHT BULB. This would be a crazy easy DIY. Anybody with a Michael's store nearby and a paintbrush could tackle this! 
Hmmmm. Permayhaps a weekend project...

What projects do you have coming up?

All of this rain has got me de-cluttering closets! I love the chevron in this space. xo

I have been itching to declutter my life too! Maybe the change of seasons is making me feel that way? THe chevron print is a very easy DIY project!

Jen @ design blossom said...

Love that chevron pattern as artwork! I may make a trip to Micheal's today and make one for myself :)

Amen sister!

Flavia @ Estilo Home said...

I've been bit by the decluttering bug too. We seem to have stuff all over the house lately.
And yeah, the diy chevron print is so cute!

I still love the chevron pattern, and I think even I could do this without screwing it up! Had fun at my first visit here!

Mary said...

Love that! I'm crazy about chevron. Room projects...hmmm...hubby just replaced the shoddily-done original crown moulding in my dining room. Looks marvelous! So glad I didn't have to do it. What a nightmare it was.

Cleaning out the garage before winter... want to come help?? :-)

More of an outdoor thing but I must must must do something in the way of landscaping or ELSE! Inside, I'd like to make a "work space" for making little cards or wrapping presents in the basement. It's low on the list though. :/ Decluttering is much higher!

Oh to de-clutter means you'll need storage...storage...and some more storage. Well, at least for me I've accumulated so much things that needs to be stored.

Simple but nice chevron in there...
