I’ve shown you the inside of our refrigerator<\/a> and Andrew’s closet<\/a>, so I may as well show you into my closet! Just don’t ever ask to see the inside of my car. The answer will be no.<\/p>\n

When we first moved into this big old place, I made it my mission to have a nice closet. It was already there, but just needed some little details to make it my own. Plus, it was pretty dirty and scuffed-up. I painted the walls a pale light blue that was leftover from painting Oliver’s nursery at the time, and left the shelves white. I drilled in the hooks for belts, but I only own two belts, so I decided to hang my bathing suits and favorite scarf there instead.\u00a0\"DSC_0160\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In the upper left corner, I have a basket filled with rolled stockings, tights, and thigh-highs and I keep some extra bedding on the shelf below. On shoes: having them mostly up off the floor is nice because it makes it much easier to clean around them. Plus, I can see everything and they aren’t smooshed in a shoe rack. Also, if you have tall boots that you love, keep them nice by stuffing an old stocking full of newspaper or tissue inside when you’re not using them. This keeps them from slumping over and creasing too much.\u00a0\"DSC_0161\"<\/a>I also group clothing not only according to type (sweaters with sweaters, jeans and jean shorts, etc.) but also to color. I find it so much easier to choose things this way. I don’t know why, but it’s visually appealing to me and simplifies my life!\u00a0\"DSC_0162\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Dresses and long skirts go on one side; shirts and mid- to short-length skirts on the other. I also have recently put lots of family photos in my closet in view when I walk in. We have so much artwork on our walls, but very few family shots. I like to see these first thing in the morning and right before I go to bed at night. It makes the space feel very special to me.\u00a0\"DSC_0166\"<\/a>There’s my closet! What’s in yours?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
