The Hall Closet: Before & After
Part of what's so satisfying about organizing a closet is that you realize you have a lot more storage room than you thought. Plus, you uncover infrequently used items that have outlived their usefulness. I'm not sure if it's a sign of mild OC, but as I get older, I find I really love clearing through clutter, purging the junk, organizing what's left in ways that make it easier to keep in in order, and then sitting back and admiring my work. My husband said it best after one of my infamous purge and GoodWill drops: "Not only do I not miss anything you got rid of, I can't even remember what you got rid of."
Now if only I could convince my girls to limit themselves to a dozen stuffed animals...each.
