What lurks under the kitchen sink & the linen closet???

I'm on Day 5 of my Organizing Challenge from a bowl full of lemons

and I actually wake up excited to find out what my next challenge will be.  I found that starting with a small project gets me motivated to tackle more throughout the house.   A little at a time doesn't seem so overwhelming.

Day 5 Challenge....Under the Kitchen Sink.

Who knows what lurks under there?  I only stick my hand in far enough to reach my dish soap.  It's dark and dingy..a bit scary.

{Before}

I cleaned everything out and wiped it down.  I found nothing too scary down there.

See...clean!  I would like to line it with contact paper but I don't have any.  I'm going to look for something pretty. Who knew I would think "under the sink" could look pretty, not scary.  Here's what lived under the sink...

trash bags, cleaners, dish tablets, sponges and ???  I also found a lot of jars that are headed for the recycle bin.

I then put only the items I use back under the sink.  I used a few shoe boxes to keep it organized and I was done!  Not too scary at all.

{ After }

Day 4:
Now, moving backwards, onto Day 4 Challenge. I didn't have time to post it yesterday.  The challenge...the linen closet.

Here's my before...

It's a bit of a mess.  I purged it awhile back so there's not too much in there. I did the usual: take a picture, cleaned it out, purged and sorted.  Then I got a few bins and a large basket for my beach towels.

And then I put it all back in.  

Whew...day 4 & 5 done.  

Just wanted to tell Toni at A Bowl Full of Lemons...Thank You for the motivation and inspiration to do this. I'm looking forward to my next challenge.
