Happy Wednesday everyone! I hope that everyone is enjoying their
week so far. Over the weekend, I tackled an organization obstacle
that has been haunting my dreams for weeks- my linen cabinet.
Over the months of moving into my home, I had just piled my linen closet with everything and that caused a huge problem. I could not even see what I had because of the piles of junk and miscellaneous stuff.
I cannot believe how easy it was to get my linens organized and tidy. It literally took only fifteen minutes or less, and now I know everything that lurks in my linen closet.

Here's how you can organize your linen closet too:
- Take everything out of your closet or cabinet.
- Access what really belongs in your closet.
- Take all of your fitted sheets and flat sheets and fold them up neatly. Then place them in a matching pillow case.
- Organize everything that actually belongs in the closet.

Thanks for doing this! I love the "take everything out" method. I wrote a post about organizing linens - but not just in the closet. http://thismomgrowsup.blogspot.com/2012/01/organizing-and-laundering-your-linens.html
ReplyDeleteVirginia, my linen closet was definitely a mess! I had to do this article to get everything back in its place! :-)

I just bought a four foot folding table for a large family dinner today, but my second reason for buying it is to be able to bring it to whatever area I am decluttering to put everything on when I clear out drawers or cabinets, or whatever.
ReplyDeleteVirginia, thats a great idea! Usually I just toss everything on the counters- that gives me an incentive to not walk away and forget about my decluttering! :)
