remember this disaster?

Uncategorized

You know, the one that spawned the whole NaBloCleanMo movement?

I'm embarrassed to say this is how I've been living.

I am proud to report I have completed the closet clean-out portion. Look at all the room for new clothes! Or, um, room to put away the pile of clothes on top of the dryer that I haven’t shown you yet …

And, of course, you remember the shoe “after” photo. It makes me so happy I’m posting it again:

shoe closet - after

I was a little concerned that they fit so perfectly. What will happen when I buy new shoes?

OK, confession. I already have bought one pair since this photo was taken. There is a pair of loafers above that have joined the casual sneakers in the rack in the closet.

What will happen when I buy more new shoes?

Fortunately, I don’t have stifle my shoe habit. I realized there are three pairs of peep-toe shoes in the rack right now. It’s now gotten cold, so they are most likely out-of-season. They can join the others under the bed!

And after that, I can put rarely worn dress shoes in under-bed boxes, too.

See? I’ve got a solution that will help me stay organized!

  2. Thanks! It’s been way too long since I’ve gone in there last.

    This time, I was much better about getting rid of things that I haven’t worn in years!

  3. i am waaaay jealous that you have empty hangers in your closet. i sortof leave a few things dirty just so i don’t run out.

  5. Wow, that’s a lot of work. And a lot of shoes! Where did you find the closet floor rack? Mine is designed so that the shoes slide off if they don’t have a high heel to hook onto the bar. So my shoes are just piled up all around it…it is a piece of clutter in itself.

  6. I can’t remember where the rack in the closet came from. Probably Target or Bed Bath & Beyond. Shoes always did fall off — even with a heel, sometimes my size 6 1/2 shoes weren’t quite long enough to fit the bars!

    After reorganization, only sneaker-type shoes are on the rack now, the rubber soles have enough grip to stay put!
