Obsession #3: Organization



I absolutely love to have everything nice and neatly organized. I have lots of little drawer organizers, shelf dividers, hanging racks, etc. The container store is like a trip to heaven every time I am able to make my way over to it.
I find that clutter is just bad for my overall well being. My mind always seems to feel cluttered when my surroundings are cluttered.
I always find myself looking at cool little organizing things in every store I go into. Just the other day in the Target dollar section I found some shallow long trays for organizing that I have been able to fit 3 of into my makeup drawer. My eye shadows have never looked prettier! Although I only realistically needed 3 (they came in a pack of 3 for $1)...I bought 9 of them...I'd hate to need them and not have any after they're out of the dollar section!

Obsession #2: Sharpie Markers


Sharpies are the most amazing writing utensils to me. I write pretty much all of my notes for my classes with ultra fine sharpie markers (still better than the sharpie pens in my opinion). I love having all of the colors to choose from and felt tip/porous point pens have always been my pen type of choice. Another good thing about sharpies...the lovely intoxicating smell. You can be in a horrible mood and sniff on a sharpie for a few minutes while writing and you'll be chilled out in no time! In my desk drawers I probably have a combined total of about 75-ish ultra fine sharpies and about 30-ish fine point sharpies. I also have about 15-ish of the twin tip sharpies with ultra fine and fine points. I don't think I'll ever run out of sharpies to write and draw with...but if I ever do I hope I have my coat because Hell will be frozen over!

Obsession #1: Damask print


My eyes are always automatically drawn to anything damask. In my bedroom alone I have a damask bedspread, damask curtains, and a damask couch. I'm currently working on a little arts and crafts project of decoupaging the same damask fabric as my curtains and couch onto my nightstand. My purse contains a damask eyeglass case, damask wallet, and damask double lipstick case (containing 2 other obsessions...for a later date). I even have a red and black damask bra! (told ya I was obsessed!)
I fully intend on having a complete damask guest room when I have a house one day. It just looks so nice and elegant to me...I can't help but love it!






explain this bloggity

So when I like something I REALLY like it. I obsess about it, and, if it's a less expensive(-ish) store bought item, I usually have multiples of the item for fear of running out. My biggest obsessions are usually items like office supplies and beauty supplies...although a lot of my obsessions don't really fit into a category.
I'll use this blog to "confess" a lot of the dumb little things that I obsess over.

Enjoy!
