Mariah Carey's closet. A little too perfect for me, but love the pink chair and gold stars in the floor!
I will take this one!I don't know about you, but something about a new year makes me want to clean out closets, drawers and work on getting organized. I guess it is my way of trying to get ready for the new year with a clean slate (or should I say "cleaner" slate)! Yesterday, I cleaned out my closet and the refrigerator all in one day...trust me, this isn't normal behavior!
The New Year bug has definitely set in and I am having a hard time not ripping down the Christmas tree and decorations. (We have an open house on New Year's Day so I decided to keep them up until then.) In the current issue of House Beautiful, there is an interesting article titled "Closet Cleanse" by Julie Morgenstern, the g

uru of putting lives in order (so the magazine claims). If you ask me, the whole article is a little too spiritual... If closet cleaning can do everything she claims, we wouldn't need shrinks, now would we! THE TOSS LIST:
- Clothes that don't fit, and will be out of style by the time you hope they fit again. Give them away! Easier said than done...
- Clothes that are stained, torn or have lost them shape. Toss 'em! Easy
- Shoes that hurt your feet. If you've never worn them, give them away. Otherwise, throw them out! Not so easy...you just never know when the pain might be WORTH it!
- Outdated handbags, belts, scarves. Donate them! Sort of easy...they JUST might come back in style someday???
I have to go get ready for company and the new year's festivities! I hope to post pictures later this weekend. I will leave you with this verse....
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! 2 Corinthians 5:17
