YEP -- I'M A NEAT FREAK!

I am a self-diagnosed neat freak. I love to clean and I love to organize. (If I could have a container, holder and/or label for EVERYTHING, my life would be complete!) And this is my brand new blog for everything NEAT!
I have a toddler in perpetual motion, a packrat daughter, a dog and a disorganized husband... and I hope to share the challenges, trials, errors, rewards and insights of being a bit "too clean obsessive" in a family that's not so in love with neatness. And I am making a promise to clean, rearrange, organize and simplify my life... and help you along the way! SO stay tuned for my journey toward everything orderly and efficient!

DAY 1-5: Can I get a vote?

This is day 1 of my new blog: The Neat Get Neater. I am excited to have a place to rant and rave about cleanliness and organization. Sound boring? Well, I HOPE not! I promise to do my very best to be entertaining and informative with a tentatively dull topic. And to start things off right, I am taking a vote on how to design/decorate my blog! What do YOU think?

Here are a few possible colors/patterns I am considering for the background. Post a comment and vote for your favorite (or favorites). Once this is determined, I will be able to design the remaining pieces (i.e. the header, the signature, etc., etc.). So PLEASE cast YOUR vote, and let me know how to get this blog off to a great start!

3.

4.

5.


Now, THAT's neat!




UPDATE: In hopes that I get some votes for this new blog design, I am keeping this post at the top as DAY 1-5 and will not add any new posts until day 6 (to talk about the "winner"). I will launch the new design by day 10!

    #3. Every room in your house has stripes...I know and you've told me personally.

    This is TheMuseFactory from swap-bot. I do need to get organized, I should post a picture of what my apartment looks like and you'd laugh so hard! I vote the last one : )

    Go with #5. The stripes on #3 look too busy as does the pattern for #4. #2 is too drab and #1 would hurt my eyes after a while. #5 is chic with the best representation of "neatness" of the bunch.

    Can't wait to follow this blog. It seems like I'm constantly organizing and re-organizing my house (especially my kitchen). Now I have a neat-freak kindred spirit.
