Today's challenge was the Computer Desk, but I did mine a few months ago (see here), so I decided to do our kitchen "desk". It's just a space in the kitchen we use for mail since our main filing and computer are in the basement.
Here is the lovely before:
I first put on my most favorite cleaning jams- none other than Kenny Chesney! No one else was home so I could blast it as loud as I wanted too! Then, I cleared everything off and cleaned it with Basic H. (okay, everything except the phone)
That's when I noticed these spots on the bottom of the upper cabinet. I have no idea how they got there, but it was nothing a little Basic H couldn't take care of!

The file box was a mess too, so I cleared it out. I use this for bills or documents that need filed, but I don't have time to file away in the basement. I typically go through this once a month and have a 'Filing Day', but with the holidays, it hasn't happened for awhile. I must admit, I did just throw all of the files in a pile in the basement. Hopefully it will be something I can tackle with the 21 Day Challenge. If not, I will do on the challenge rest day (Sunday).

The last thing I did was make a recycle container for batteries. Our old one was a small glass jar that was overflowing. We go through so many batteries with D's toys that I wanted to have something stylish to put them in until I can take them somewhere for recycling. Since we go through the baby formula, it made the perfect size. I simply covered it with some scrapbook paper.
Here is the before again (cringe):
And the after (giddy):
Much better!
