A challenge I decided to join

Well actually there is two that I joined for the month of October.  I hope I can keep up, we will see.

A wonderful reader told me about Becky over at http://organizingmadefun.blogspot.com/  and when I got a chance to check out her blog, I decided to follow along.

For the month of October she is hosting

 

Todays challenge was any dresser drawer, so I chose mine because I am as bad as my kids and cram all I can in there, I have done that since I was a kid myself.

Anyway here is the before:

and here is the after:

I actually even organized them by tshirt or dress shirt or undershirt.....Don't worry i will spare you the picture of my underwear drawer (LOL)  Anyway you get the idea, i never would have though of putting my shirts in a dresser a different way...now I can see what I have.  My poor hubs and kids are in trouble...too bad I cant get all the dressers done in one night.  It even left me with this

An empty drawer...imagine that  (gasp) in a previously over stuffed unable to close it dresser.  Although, I will probably move my sweaters in from under my bed,  but it will be nice to be able to see what I have and if it all fits in the dresser and closet no more swapping out summer and winter clothes.

The second challenge I decided to follow is with Victoria over at http://creativehomekeeper.com/

Her challenge is 31 days to creating a wardrobe you love.  We will see how it goes...maybe I will have to ask your opinions on what I should keep and if i get rid of more....there might be even more space in those drawers!

Check them out...follow along with me! Happy Hump Day........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
