Hey, friends! It has been Command Center Week here at Just a Girl and Her Blog! On Monday I shared how I gave our old entry desk its third makeover with a new coat of paint and some pretty knobs. On Tuesday I revealed our whole organizational system and talked about eight essential elements that were absolutely crucial to our command center. After getting a lot of questions about different items that I used, I decided to share today's post about our sources for everything! Here we go!

    I love the cuteness of your command center... we have a command center of sorts, but we purposefully made it inside a big cabinet so we can close the doors and hide it from the world.

    It makes me want to think about ideas for adding a little excited 🙂

      Lol! We definitely have craziness tucked away all over the house too! With kids (and life!) it happens! Hope you're having a great day, Theresa!

    This whole space is fabulous - it looks great and is so so practical. Hurray! I've been racking my brain about what we need for a "command center" at the barn. You are inspiring me.

    This is SO CUTE! Thank you for breaking this down! After seeing it in your Fall Home Tour I had to come see how you put it all together. We are in serious need of a "command center" and now I have the perfect inspiration for it! Haha thank you for sharing all of this! I'm off to throw my money at Michael's now 😉

    I see I'm a little late to the party! I just found this (4/10/17), and some of the links don't work anymore. SAD FACE!! I LOVE the simplicity and this is actually a command center I would use! Is this system still working for you? Anything new or updated? Thank you!

      Hi, Kimberly! We actually don't live in this house anymore, so aren't using this exact system currently. I would guess there are probably similar pieces available on Amazon if the originals are no longer sold. So sorry about that!
