Here's the before:
(Please don't mind the lower portion - that was the former laundry shoot that bit the dust while we were working on the bathroom. The hubster will be fixing that after the nursery is complete.) If you look at the upper three shelves, you'll see that I had started organizing with baskets, but there was just entirely too much stuff in there.
Here's the after:
Losing the cleaning supplies freed up so much more space for towels and washcloths! (Imagine that - space for linens in the LINEN closet) The rags were all moved into one of the small baskets, and the soap and tissues moved into a larger basket. I love it! Again - maybe a 'pretty up the closet' post to come at a later time, but right now I'm just happy that it's organized.
Lauren is posting photos from her readers for each project, and I can't wait to see what they've come up with. I'm sure they'll be much prettier than my bare-bones approach.
Thanks Lauren for the inspiration and I can't wait to see what your next project is! Have a great weekend everyone!
You're inspiring me to re-look at my closets. I did have the linen closet organized, but it got out of control again. I think there was a party in there. :)
ReplyDeleteLike the retro fabrics at WarmBiscuit. Some of the floral vintage prints are reminiscent of feed bags. When we were kids, my grandma made us dresses from feed bag cloth. And I found... See More oilcloth on there too. Didn't know they made that anymore. If people had an everyday tablecloth it was generally oilcloth, which was usually purchased at the 5&10 off big rolls. Consider this your little history lesson for the day.
