So. Much. CLOTHING!!

If you're like me, and have so much clothing, and no walk in closet, then this is definitely going to help you.

The first thing i have to say is to invest in a closet set up like the one below, it makes your little closet so much bigger (in the way that you can fit more stuff) I got mine from Homedepot, but I think Target and Walmart have some as well.

Starting at the bottom; The very first thing you should do is go through all your shoes. The ones you wear often are obviously the ones you are keeping. If there are any that hurt you feet, you should ditch them because they are probably bad for your feet. (this could mean they are too small pr to big which definitely means they've got to go). Also, shoes that you never wore, and its been like a year since you've bought them, then they should go. 

Once you've sorted through you shoes take all the shoes you wear a lot and put them on one side, and less used on the other. Evenly space them on the floor so they aren't on top of each other. If you have many flip flops, you can put them in a box.

Moving on from shoes, lets go to pants (shorts, jeans, skirt). I hang almost all my pants, not including pajama bottoms or soft shorts like soffees. So, I put all the pants I wear the least, towards the wall, and all the pants I wear more often towards the middle. Next to them i put all my more casual pants, like sweats, and leggings.

With tops, I put the in-season stuff towards the center. All my dresses are near the wall (don't wear them as much), and all the out-season stuff is in the middle.

Jackets and coats are set up just like the tops; in-season is toward the middle, out-season is towards the walls.

For all my other clothing, I have them separated into boxes as seen below. All the socks are in one box, the swimsuits in another, hats/gloves etc. I got the boxes at Homedepot, but I've seen them at Target as well.

And here you are! An organized closet for a large wardrobe!

Nobody likes a cluttered desk

Ever since school started back in September, my desk has become a jumble of papers, pencils and random stuff. I think its finally time to tidy up. Here is how I turned my messy desk in to a enjoyable workplace.

My desk before it went through its transformation...

First I put all things I don't usually use in drawer that was part of my desk. I have easy access to everything (nothing is free floating). All items are in small pouches. To do this, you can use anything, like makeup pouches or even zip lock bags--anything to keep things from being lost at the bottom of the drawer. If you don't have a drawer use plastic tubs and just slide and stack them under your desk on either side of where your legs go.

I have a lot of wires around my room for charging various electronic items. What I did to keep them out of the way was to put them all in a little pouch. Also, to keep them from knotting up with one another, I wrapped them with silly bands (I KNEW there'd be a use for those!).

If you saw in the first photo I had pencils, pens, sharpies--all sorts of writing mediums scattered around my desk. This problem was easily solved. All I did was take one of those utensil holders and put my pencils and stuff in it. I got mine at Target, but there are other cheap ones at Marshalls or Walmart.

Now the only things I keep on the surface of my desk are the things I use often. I also keep a plant (bamboo) on there for good feng shui.

The final product!

*Just a note. To keep your desk from being cluttered, decide if you really need what is there. If you look on my desk, I use my iHome everyday along with my computer. Pencils are a necessity for homework along with my three hole punch and stapler. The pile a papers next to my keyboard is homework. Everything on the desk is something that is being used.*
