We are getting into my favorite time of year! Fall and Winter are my two favorite seasons. I say both because I can’t pick between one and the other. Since we are entering Fall let’s focus on that today. Here in Houston after the brutal Summers going into highs of 80-75 degrees F is like a blessing. Towards the end of Fall it does get a little colder, but I would rather take the cold over the heat any day. During the Summer I always say you can only take off so many clothes. Lol What I love about the cooler weather is layering; the colder it gets, the more layers you can wear until you achieve that warm, cozy perfect temperature.
To get ready for this change I have decided to do a room/closet makeover. For the past week I have been cleaning out my closet, my make up vanity and filing all my paperwork. By the time I am finished my goal is to have a room free of clutter and to have everything organized and easy to find. I am being ruthless with everything unnecessary I find as I want to rid myself of the clutter.
I am a pack rat and so I have a hard time throwing things out in the off chance that I might one day need them. This is the main reason why my room became so crowded. It’s full of stuff that I never use but can’t throw away.
To help me I bought a couple of inexpensive tote boxes at Walmart. They are pretty roomy and only $7 each. When I find something I just can’t throw away I pack it in them. I have one for miscellaneous items, and one for clothes I never wear.
I am also filling up make up bags with items I hardly ever use and throwing out the items that are too old. I’ve only kept on my vanity the items I actually use. Doing this is the best way to make room and working on a de-cluttered area is refreshing.
I will post some updates pictures once my Room project is complete. I know I will feel refreshed and much, much happier.
