Organizing 5 – The Fireplace

With the cold weather coming, we decided to clean out under the fireplace (also an indoor braai/barbecue).

I moved all the camping stuff out, vacuumed and cleaned…

Cleaned out the cobwebs from inside and sorted that wood and newspaper pile…

Think containerize – yay! love the concept. Found a great container for all the newspaper.

… and even some baskets not currently being used in the freezer that hubby was very impressed to be able to sort the wood into.

Looking good!

All done — ready for some great cozy fires and marshmallow toasting!
