I always like a good closet clean-out, but I'm especially intrigued by the idea of bringing a Zen perspective to it.Heidi // Frantic But Fabuloushttp://www.franticbutfabulous.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1145183089731808312.post-27132925765625712782015-02-20T08:07:25.185-08:002015-02-20T08:07:25.185-08:00I started focusing on a room a month last year (sm...I started focusing on a room a month last year (small house) and kept up with it. Started over in January and will do each room again. Purge and deep clean. I also file my clothes (undies, socks, pj's, camis, shorts) that go into drawers and it is wonderful! 11 years ago when I bought my house and was pregnant my sister came over and organized my closet for me, all the clothes go into order (shells, short sleeve, long sleeve, hoodies, dresses, etc) and I have kept up with it ever since. I have a paper issue and sometimes I have this weird issue (is it guilt?) about throwing stuff out so I will thank everything as I purge. <br /><br />My favorite kitchen purge task is to put every single cooking accessory and utensil into a box/tub and only pull out as needed. Give yourself a month or six months and whatever is still left in the box/tub leaves the house. I didn't miss my immersion blender for 2 years. But then I realized I have a kick-ass Ninja blender so don't even need the hand blender which is why I got rid of it in the first place! <br /><br />I will check out the book.

And folding is fun...;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1145183089731808312.post-49689411165116637362015-02-19T12:21:04.885-08:002015-02-19T12:21:04.885-08:00I must try it!

I get what you're saying that I didn't then stack them vertically after standing them, but my dresser drawers are too long to "file" them down the length of the drawer.Amblushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11765599544176134468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1145183089731808312.post-18241027081853468092015-02-19T11:58:43.649-08:002015-02-19T11:58:43.649-08:00Yes, those are drawers!

I must be rebelling against my hoarding mother who keeps EVERYTHING and buys EVERYTHING. <br /><br />In the last 3 photos, are those drawers? If so, I think you're stacking stuff horizontally (not vertically), right? I saw another blogger do this, and I've been meaning to try it because I love that you can see everything all at once.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
