Project Nursery: Closet/Drawer Organization!

Tuesday, November 24, 2015
The nursery is ninety percent done, but we aren't quite ready to reveal the entire nursery just yet, so I figured I'd share a little drawer and closet organization!

We had our baby-shower a few days ago and although a lot of people were missing, we still had an amazing time!

So some that have RSVP-ed had to cancel because of it, or people were getting sick! So our shower...
