{ closet...before & after }

Let's focus on the AFTER first, shall we?





How? Well, I spent about $200 on bins, boxes, more shelves, wood hangers, etc. I purged and organized. I donated a ton of stuff to the local women's shelter and thrift store. I sold a few handbags and dresses on ebay. But a 100x better isn't it? {I actually bought 120 wood hangers (and that's all - everything else had to go).}

Here's is the BEFORE. Which granted was not as bad as this darling bloggers, closet.

{My closet BEFORE}

{ organize ME }

One of the projects that I've been working on from my to do list is to purge & organize our master bedroom closet. I set up a shoe rack (and am donating any shoes that don't fit on it - it holds ~ 25) in order to par down the # of shoes in there. And I bought 120 wood hangers...so once they are all used up, the rest of the clothes have to go. I figured that was a good way to limit down the amount of clothes I have in there. I found a great deal on wooden hangers on ebay...

I'm inspired by Nicole's bright & cheerful closet (see pic above) over at Making it Lovely...aren't you? I will have to do before & after photos of mine, which won't be as lovely but WILL be less cluttered and disorganized. Not to mention most of my clothes are jeans and black dresses! :)
