We are our own harshest critics. I'm guilty of this myself....we all are, some more than others.

There is such a difference, however, in how others see us.
 
I was reading the gorgeous blog of Hollywould - Charm & Gumption this morning, while admiring her beautiful stationery business and I came across a short post she did recently on the Dove Real Beauty Sketches.

The clip brought tears to my eyes. It's a strong reminder that we are our harshest critics and how we see ourselves does not correspond with how others see us. I've included the clip below - tell me what your thoughts are - I'd love to hear them :)
Have a fantastic week....

Welcome to this weeks theme - Organise My Digital World.

It's amazing the amount of information that passes through our hands every single day.....and the majority of this information is in a digital format. This means some very clogged computers (at times) and quite often a backlog of emails.

We'll look at some ways to keep on top of these things and help clear any backlog you may have. Digital clutter can have the same effect as physical clutter - so let's get started on some digital decluttering and organising!

This weeks organising theme at Organise My Space is Clever Storage Ideas. Whenever I'm researching for my blog and tips, I always discover really clever "out of the box" storage ideas which I wanted to share with everyone for something a bit different. :)

This weeks blog post features a guest blogger - Angela of Bel'Angelle.

Angela sent me a lovely email earlier in the week about her business and product which just happens to fit in well with our week theme. I love helping other Mums & Dads in business, so thought a guest blog post from her would be just the ticket. With that, I'll hand the microphone to her ;)

Bel’Angelle’s Bra Storage Solution is a unique, simple yet stylish solution for getting bras sorted.
I am a 40ish mother of two adult children and I decided to design a storage solution because I was passionate about the condition of my bras. I wanted a design that would protect and offer cup support for expensive padded, booster and push-up bras. Being a primary school teacher, this was a complete change of direction for me.  After approximately 5 years and a few
different designs, I came up with the final design, which I had registered.

Bel’Angelle’s bra storage solution is made from clear plastic and is low enough to fit in most lingerie drawers. The storage solution allows stacking of a number of bras and the moulded insert provides adequate cup support. A removable lid secures it altogether, preventing bras catching in drawers. Up to six bras may be stacked within one storage solution and the moulded insert offers adequate cup support for bra cup sizes A through to C.
 
Bel’Angelle’s bra storage solution may be purchased on-line at   www.belangelle.com.au.
