Well - this past Saturday I finally mustered up enough motivation to do it.
Note: On a whole my closet is in pretty good shape since I donate clothes regularly & can be a bit obsessive about matching hangers (but not in a Mommie Dearest sorta' way).
The "After" Pic
I organized clothes by type then color. My billion striped t-shirts even got to be in their own, nicely folded pile.
I lifted a shelf near my shoe rack a few inches, and bought another row of clear plastic storage containers for my out of season shoes.
My Biggest Victory
Turning this pile....
Into this...
I ended up purging two BIG bags of clothing from my closet, which included a couple blouses I felt emotionally attached to but unfortunately could no longer zip up.
There were also some Spring additions....
Yes - I purchased yet another striped t-shirt.
I want to see the "before pic" :)
ReplyDeleteI'll put it up on my FB :)
ReplyDeleteGreat job Martha Stewart!
ReplyDeleteI'm so inspired! Cal where did you get your sexy rounded toe pumps? I wear pointy toes to work but they hurt my feet :(
ReplyDeleteThanks!
ReplyDeletePointy toe shoes KILL me (I have pretty wide feet). I think I have mainly Cole Haan and Franco Sarto heels for work...love the Nike tech in Cole Haan shoes, and the flexible rubber soles of FS
I am completely jealous of your closet! It looks fantastic after the re-organization. I am LOL'ing about owning many striped shirts. I think I have like 10 of them...they're so great for the weekend!
ReplyDeleteThanks roxy!
ReplyDeleteNow every-time I bring a new striped item (be-it cardigan or shirt) home, my husband groans and says "I thought you were cutting yourself off!"
