The Closet: {Part 2}

Ok, I finally got my act together and took pictures of the "after" of our closet. I can't believe it took me so long to do this. I guess life just got in the way... (That tends to happen a lot... :-) I'm so happy the way our closet turned out. Makes me feel better that everything has a place! Getting dressed is a whole lot easier too. 


So... after about 5 trash bags to Goodwill, some clothes to Platos closet, and just throwing away stuff that we don't use, we can finally walk into our closet! Yay! Who knew that walking into a closet was such a challenge??


Ok some before pictures.... I'm cringing right now...


Just awful.... I have no words.

I wouldn't dare show these pictures unless I had a really good after. So here it is...








Behind the door...



And a little trick I learned, roll up magazines and stick them in your boots to make the stand up! So clever. You can also use water bottles.


And behind the door... I couldn't get the whole door in the picture.



And a little side by side comparison...


Such a transformation, and I'm so glad it's over!!

And thought I would share what Libby's lunch looked like today...


Mmmm, macaroni and cheese, grapes and sprinkles.

I had no idea she did this until after the fact. Now that she can open and close the pantry door she has easy access to everything on the lower part of the door. And of course the sprinkles were right where she could reach. 

At least the macaroni and cheese had carrot puree in it...

Happy weekend!
