Dandelion Dirt Demolition Round 3

Woo-hoo! On to round three!!

"(Ding!)

And the Dandelions enter the ring, each one squaring off against their mighty foes... Clutter, Dirt, and Disorganization! Clutter makes a jab to the left... Disorganization brings a shower of papers down around their ankles... Dirt just sits there... looking its worst. It's truly a dirty fight, ladies... but together these Dandelions might just be able to pull off a miracle and WIN THIS ROUND!!"

So... here are the rules. Photograph one to three areas of your home. This might incude one large project... your garage, for example, or a junk filled guest room, or a messy children's playroom, a big closet. Or it might be several smaller areas... a horrible junk drawer, a closet, a craft table, pantry shelf. You get the idea.

I am not concerned about the swap being even. One person might choose three rooms filled floor to ceiling with hoarded embarrassment, another might choose a junk drawer; it actually doesn't matter as long as something improves.

Clean/organize the area!! Put some elbow grease into it! Now, enjoy a cup of tea or hot cocoa. (because I said so) Take pictures again of the cleaner area. E-mail these pictures to your partners, along with a plan for keeping the area better organized in 2011. (It doesn't matter what... a detailed 12 step plan, or 'I hope I won't dump junk in here anymore'... but try to be realistic with your goal while also thinking about what will make it easier to clean up next time, or to keep clean)

Next month, we will do it all again! Maybe at the end of the year we can creat a little 'clean' journal with all of our spaces recorded, and a current update on them.

And before you know it... we Dandelions will have WON THIS FIGHT!!
