Every time I open that door I cringe. It has board games thown about, baby food
jars on one shelf, posters on another shelf, boxes of miscellaneous junk under
the board games and there were even some broken glass frames! I forgot to take a before picture, but this
is the finished product:
I told Justin before we started this that it is going to be
very difficult for me to spread it out over an entire year. As soon as we started
organizing/trashing/giving things away out of this closet, I was planning and
scheming in my head how/what we would do with each and every other room in our
house. I was ready to go to each room
and do the same thing. The problem is,
it took us about two hours to sort through everything and the babies only sleep
for so long : /
It is okay though. It
is better to spread it out. That way
everything gets done, I don’t get stressed, and we continue it in our normal
daily routine in the future.
This first task doesn’t have much deeper meaning except that
our closet just really needed to be organized.
It does allow for easier access to games when we have company over,
which goes with our socializing more goal.
On the bottom, big shelf we have started stacking our “projects”. Things we would like to get done in order to
make our home more “homey” (like things we need to get framed) and things to
make things simpler (like cloth napkins).
That’s all for day one – I’m already just walking around our
house finding things that we don’t need or just need to go in the trash! J
Here is the beginning of our "give pile":
