Closet Organization

Don't you just love a clean closet?  Makes deciding what to wear that much easier!  Since I put away some winter clothes and pulled out some spring/summer clothes (feels like you just got a bunch of new stuff p.s.) I decided my closet could use a cleaning and a freshen up.  

Everything I hang are things that I would otherwise have to iron or steam if they were folded, pure laziness is my reasoning.  The order in which I hang things goes from dressy tank tops, dressy short sleeves, then it goes into long sleeve button up's, blazers and blouses based on colour.  Everything behind that is skirts, dress pants and dresses.

On the shelf above the things that are hanging, from left to right are: shorts, pants, tank tops, t-shirts, long sleeve shirts, long sleeve sweaters.  Above that is some Christmas decorations ready to be moved to the apartment and shoes!

Lately I have been folding my scarfs because I found having them hung on a hanger left them looking crinkly, plus now I can see them all clearly!  The shelving unit is from Ikea and provides some great extra storage for my bags, extra sweaters, old t-shirts, art supplies and well stuff.

Didn't think about taking a before picture, but trust me it was a disaster zone.  Hope this inspires some closet cleansing!

DIY Potential

So procrastinating seems to be a problem right around final exams.  What am I doing while I procrastinate you may ask? I am searching for awesome potential DIY's for our apartment.  I have fallen in love with hairpin style coffee tables, definitely a project I could do myself! These pictures are just some DIY's I stumbled upon today while I should have been finishing floor plans and picking out finishes.  It seems pretty simple but  suppose that will be decided when I'm done!  My own DIY will be a must so stay tuned to see how this turns out!

Apartment!

What is this you may ask?  It's a key to our new apartment! Now although we aren't moving in until August it is so exciting to have a space to call our own.  I'm sure there will be plenty of posts showing what we are going to do to the space and how we make it our own :)  

Now being the crazy person I am, Ross and I went in on Monday and measured the whole thing so I could make a floor plan to see what things would fit...yes I did that. But it worked great!  Now we know how we want to move things in and what else we may need.  So excited for this new adventure!
