Getting Organized

I'm cleaning and getting organized this morning with a little bit of inspiration from Real Simple. The goals are:

A) Jewelry

B) Closet and Shoes

C) Home Office

Easter

Ok, so seriously, what do we honestly think of Easter trees? Another attempt at mass market commercialization of religious holidays? Or an inspiring way to enjoy the Spring season?

I'm gonna go with the latter. After all, trees seem more appropos to me at Easter, I mean aren't we celebrating the resurrection of our saviour who died on a tree? Makes sense to me!

With ornaments as cute as these, I think (thanks to vintage-ornaments.com) I'm convinced!

That's it! I've decided! Next year, I'm gonna have an Easter tree!!!

"Where man sees but withered leaves, God sees sweet flowers growing"

Happy Easter!!!

I must be insane because I am COMPLETELY in love with this company! I mean really, I don't know where on earth these pieces could actually go, but I think they're perfect in absolutely ever cuckoo way:
