Cleaning Out The Closet

Saturday morning was rainy and yucky so I spent the morning inside cleaning out our closets.  I rotated out all of our winter clothes and brought in our spring and summer clothes.  This is one chore I hate doing but am so glad when it is finished because everything is organized and in its place.

Brandon had rearranged his clothes already, but I took the opportunity to sort them by color.  We'll see how long that lasts...

I also sort my clothes according to color, but mine generally tend to stay sorted ;)

I should have taken a before shot of the mess of shoes that I had going on, but I am too embarassed to show that to anyone.  Needless to say, this is a massive improvement on what I had going on in the shoe department.

Here is another section of shoes which are mostly sandals.

Before I put my spring and summer clothes away last fall, I sorted through the pieces I did not wear that season and made a big donation pile.  As I pulled out the same tub this year, I realized I gave away quite a bit -- one disclaimer though, I gave away a lot of clothes that did not fit anymore since I did Weight Watchers because I did not want to have any excuse for gaining weight back.  Needless to say, I have a few things I need to replace for the season.

It feels so good to have this chore behind us.  Now if only I could tackle the rest of the house....
