I'm almost embarassed to post the "before" picture, but hey, I'm keepin' it real!! According to Fly Lady, this would definitely be considered a "hot spot" for me! This is our small hallway closet that houses the sheets, towels, and some of my two younger boys clothes. You can imagine how much gets taken out, put back in the wrong spot, dropped, unfolded...you get the picture! Well, every so often I will purge the clothes that are too small or have not been worn. I obviously have not done it since last summer, and I was surprised at how much stuff was in there! I did not hold onto the "what if they do wear this one day" mentality, but just threw it in a big garbage bag to give to charity. I even got rid of sheets that I know I would no longer be using! So, without further ado, here is the before and after!Before (see the massive pile of clothes on the bottom)
After (the floor is now bare)!

good job! it's looks so nice and organized!
Nice job!!!
Your walls are almost the same colour as mine, plus we just finished painting all our trim and doors white also. Now I need to paint the inside of my closet white, like your's..Glad you took the before pic sis..It takes courage and guts, something that comes from Jesus,,,than the after pic. That's like the 'old' us and the new creating we are in Christ Jesus now.alleluia
Don't worry about the picture. Mine looks terrible. My master bedroom is closet is huge, but I can only walk through a little path of it! I call it Mt. Fuji land!! I have better things to do other than laundry... really!!
I am tackling a few things today too, I need a babysitter for Joel tomorrow so that is top priority but hopefully I can post some pics of my clean house later.....lol
BTW, closet looks awesome, keep it up girlfriend.
Thank you for making me realize I am not the only one who's hall closet looked like the before shot. Mine still looks like that. Perhaps this is the motivation I need. Great job! Don't you feel better now that its done?
You tackled it alright! Good job!
I've never seen this meme before! I like it and uhm need it! Great job on the closet, I hate trying to get things folded nice! My baby's closet resembles your before!
Good for you! That looks great!
You're so much braver than me to post pictures of your closets. I'd probably be arrested if I did that!
Beautiful job! Nothing better than a pefectly organized closet. I just got a little chill:-)
WOW! how organised! really, I also can't imagine how your laundry is like with 5 kids around :) Even with only 2 kids, the dishes and laundry at our home do get rather overwhelming at times...
oh and lastly, I MUST comment on your site's look ... it's really nice!!! :D

Hi Alicia..
Thanks so much for stopping by today and for sharing your heart. I was blessed by your visit and always love to meet new sisters in the Lord!!. Wow you just reminded me of areas I need to tackle.. I've been in denial on one particular closet I really need to do lol. Gee thanks for the reminder sistah!!

Visiting for the first time.
Good job on the cleaning. I don't even want to look into my children's drawers. Arrrgggh...
That reminds me of my own closet at home. Uh uh ...
Wow! Great job!! :D
Good work!
I cannot "plan ahead" for Tackle it Tuesday, with the pictures and stuff. And it's really no fun without pictures! LOL
Awesome Job Alicia!!! I feel better knowing my hall closet is not the only one that gets crazy messy. My kids are always taking blankets out and shoving them back in unfolded. I get so annoyed, lol! The after pic looks great!!
Great job.
