Did you use your extra time on the weekend to tackle a bigger project? A few weeks ago my husband rearranged the kids’ bedrooms and there was still some work to be done. I spent about an hour in the girls’ room cleaning out and organizing. After cleaning out their over crowded closet it made me wish it was time to pack away all those winter clothes. I think we have a few more cool weeks ahead, so the massive summer clothes swap will have to wait until May.
I didn’t find much to throw away, a broken picture frame and a book that had seen its last day, but other than that it was mainly items that needed to find a home.

I also packed away all the winter clothes. I forgot to take many pictures, but four bins and one space saver
bag later the winter coats have moved to the basement.
Remember to check the pockets off all the coats and snow pants before you pack them away. This will keep you from having to unpack all the coats when you realize you left your metro pass in the pocket of one of your coats.
Sorry for the dark photos, I didn’t realize it until after everything was cleaned up!
Time to link up with your big weekend tackle. I have decided to use a photo linky, so you will need to include an image from your post. Also, please make sure you link to your actual post and not your blog’s home page. As a courtesy to the hostess (that’s me!) please include a link back so other people can join in the fun too!
Tomorrow I’ll be talking about one of my biggest weaknesses, paper clutter!

Now I am trying to remember where we bought them! I think it was a furniture store in Va Beach. 🙂

I didn’t take any photos but I did put up 2 new curtains in our room. I had to go through stuff before I could move my little night stand in front of the window on my side of bed. I got rid of a rack that used to be in the Hallmark card store that was a displayer for coasters. I had little stuffed animals/beanie babies on it. I was tired of it, but kept the animals that will be cleaned of dust soon. I wiped both windows and off came mold/mildew. I can breathe so much better at night now. My hubby moved stuff from in front of his window since my back was hurting alot. It looks so much nicer in there now that I’ve got a few things hidden for now and still am keeping my side uncluttered forever. It looks great and thanks for the inspiration! You did good too!
