For the last couple of days (okay, maybe for the last week), I have been engaged in a crazy huge project upstairs in the girls' toyroom and bedroom. In the toyroom, we have three good-sized closets that were PACKED full!!! One of the closets was full of my scrapbooking stuff, another closet was full of toys, blankets, and coats. The last closet, the biggest one, was stuffed full of baby/toddler clothes and all sorts of other misc baby stuff. All three of the closets were crazy. Well, after LOTS of purging, I finally have three beautifully organized (still full but not even close to how crazy full they were before) closets. I am getting rid of five huge bags of clothes, two boxes of clothes, one box of stuff and one other BIG box (not included in the pic b/c I need Cory to carry it down). I also threw away a huge bag of trash (things that I don't think anyone else would ever want to clutter their homes) Crazy, right?. I tried to just keep the things that I absolutely love because who knows...maybe I'll have another girl someday.
Whew!!

I totally know the feeling, it takes me forever to go thru and get rid of things. I just want to hold on to everything. :) But, congrats on getting that all cleared out! (I need to get in my attic, but I'm too afraid!)
Great Job! I so need to do that to my whole house! I hold on to too much stuff. I need to learn to throw away! Awesome!
Good work! I'm glad you got this project done before I get there in THREE WEEKS! :)
I am very impressed as well as inspired. I can't wait to see what they look like as I saw them before. So you see there will be someone who will see the difference beside yourself. Not that you need the validation but it is always nice to have the personal kuddos!
Love Mom by the beach.
Good for you!! It feels so good, I'm sure.
You've inspired me. Now its my turn and then I will post my picture. You just forgot to show us the clean organized closet. Way to go!
Thanks for the reminder of what I need to do! I hate going through the kids stuff and getting rid of it! I still have like 3 or 4 big box fulls of Hannah's baby clothes I can't seem to part with! If I could ever have a night that I'm not working I'd love to eat "liver" with you all! :)lol! I just can't seem to get a night off. It's crazy just how busy my days and nights are! I don't even have time to get over being sick! Which is probably the reason why I got it twice so quickly. Hope you all are doing well!
I'm exhausted just looking at your pile. :) I'm going through stuff right now and purging like crazy as well. It feels so good when it's done. Good Job!
If your house gets too clean, you are welcome to work at mine!
Have you done any scrapbooking lately? I am building a craft studio in my basement, did Laura tell you? It shouldn't be too much longer, drywall was finished yesterday. So hopefully you guys can come over soon and we can scrap away, I need some ideas from you, I am really wanting to get more into stamping....
Way.to.go!! I'll bet you feel so good.
Yay for you!!! I'm sorry I've been out of touch....for some reason I've been off the internet thing for a while now. I'm trying to catch up now.
