Thanks everyone - yes, it is freeing, to have an empty closet, and I love the look of it. This morning was my first day dressing from it, and that'll be a post on it's own - it was more difficult than I expected

You did a great job deciding how to tackle your closet. Lots of work
(and with sick kids to boot, sorry!) No guilt needed (because my
numbers are not too far from yours I think, but I haven't counted my tops) Please keep us posted of your
progress, I like how you note complaints on the items and out they will go, specially if they are duplicates. I need a basement.
