Spring Cleaning: Finally, some results

Yeah, I know. Spring cleaning started, what, three weeks ago? And I still have yet to report on my progress? Shame, shame on me.

Unfortunately, I'm still not done with everything. The bedrooms have yet to be touched because of the overwhelming amount of work that needs to be done there. But they will be done. The kitchen I did do, but the problem is I use it, regularly. So what was once clean and nicely organized is now slightly cluttered. I'll get "after" pictures soon.

So what do I have to report on? The hall closet. Yep, the linen/food storage/wheat grinder/games/guest pillows closet. I've wanted to better organize that 4 square foot section of my apartment for months, if not years. And I sure am proud of it.

Before:

After:

Doesn't it just make you want to weep with joy? It is amazing how organizing such a small space makes such a difference in my life. Everything there has a place.

Now, on to the bedrooms...

Perhaps not weep. Shout for joy. You might actually be inspiring me to do some spring cleaning myself. Keep it up!

I can't say I started crying when I opened the closet to find sheets for the futon mattress, but I was impressed. Maybe we can do the rooms when I come up to visit next!

I am right there with you. My coat closet took me longer than the whole living room. Keep at it, eventually we'll finish.
