I have come to enjoy cardboard banker boxes, not too small and not too big. They stack, label and hide clutter well.<br /><br />Love These organizing tips of your's and your Sweet Momma's!<br /><br />I am in the process of finding photos in magazine to make some of the wonderfully creative magazine cards and envelopes. <br /><br />I can not wait to see your "Do something crafty" on your list for the week.<br /><br />AngeliaAngelia in TXnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-63239051876205997342009-06-04T17:10:45.460-04:002009-06-04T17:10:45.460-04:00Monica!!

This gave me enough room to hang a second wire shelf with an attached hanging rod beneath one half of our closet. It was so much cheaper than those expensive closet organization systems.<br /><br />Now I hang dresses and longer items on the side without the second shelf. Shirts, skirts, and pants go on the two shorter areas. I have a standard ceilings, so this leaves my top shelf pretty close to the ceiling, but I never utilized that space in a very efficient manner anyway. So I put some pretty baskets up there and filled them with extra purses, winter things, and sheets. It's actually stayed that way!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10305056781373677441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-23536169266306363062009-06-04T11:55:56.821-04:002009-06-04T11:55:56.821-04:00Great idea with the wooden rack.

We've never used a changing table-I've always thought, for us, that they were a waste of space. Love how you are able to repurpose yours.<br />Elise<br />Think your Mom will come my way next?? :)Elisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00669663704444452161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-81637951917633046182009-06-04T10:06:43.576-04:002009-06-04T10:06:43.576-04:00I always try and think vertical too since we also ...I always try and think vertical too since we also have high ceilings. I also have wreaths hanging on the walls in our closet, but hadn't thought about using the space over the door.

Yo...I have so enjoyed these posts on organization. Your mom must have been such a help while she was visiting. What a servant's heart.<br /><br />My favorite closet organizing tool is common in many closets. I have the white wire shelving with the hanger rod underneath. the hanger rod is divided into sections to add stability (I think). I use those divisions to group my clothing into categories.<br /><br />In my kids' closets, I love the IKEA 5 shelf hanging clothes organizer. On Sunday after changing out of our church clothes, we ready our outfits for the school week.angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00688991209865856563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-64523154563726807092009-06-04T09:00:46.870-04:002009-06-04T09:00:46.870-04:00Okay, my bedroom closet is in desperate need or or...Okay, my bedroom closet is in desperate need or organzing. You have inspired me to go thrifting and find a changing table to use in there for my craft stuff and off season stuff. I bought some after-Christmas sale stuff last year and it's just piled in there so bad I can hardly walk through. <br /><br />Thanks!Jeremiah and Stepheniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04192937893359139896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-21099467074941094752009-06-04T07:44:51.383-04:002009-06-04T07:44:51.383-04:00Plastic shoebox containers.

I then labeled the outside and stacked them on a couple of closet shelves. No more searching for an item, I just grab the box and go.Wendihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02547001714523524390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-35736418212929514442009-06-04T06:52:43.415-04:002009-06-04T06:52:43.415-04:00plastic bins...

I figure I will save them and then give them to each one when he gets his own house!
