spring cleaning

Ok, fast forward until today. At a party on Friday I was discussing with another woman how I was expertly avoiding this giant task of cleaning my tiny 1920's closet out and storing all my winter clothes. Its a huge project I do twice a year (spring and fall) and it is great because I do purge, take things to consignment, and make a little cash and a little room. Its to be avoided because it makes a huge mess and takes days and days. I avoid it for awhile. Like right now.
We have family coming this weekend, however, and I must get it together. Anyway, at this party I was told of the fabulous black velvet slim hangers they sell at Costco in boxes of 50 and how they don't wreck your clothes, they help fit lots more clothes in your closet and the velvet means nothing falls off the hanger. I zoomed out yesterday, avoided buying a Costco hotdog and eighteen or so "bargains" I didn't need, and have been at it ever since. Hoorah! The closet looks so organized and I can see what I own! I have a pile for Goodwill and a pile for Show Pony, a great store in Fremont that takes your well cared for consignment pieces.
Now, if I could only fit a sofa in there...........
lisa tried to color co-ordinate my closet last visit,but I didn't stay with the program very well.
