April-I think I'm mixing up my words, by sizing I meant the paper was 1 by 2 inches in size.

Today I tackled tights and scarves. Tights were in a shameful jumble in an overly-full drawer;l scarves were hanging up, but I wanted my hangers back.

Now tights are folded and "standing" much like the camis shown above and the scarves are folded in a drawer.

Some of the scarves are probably coming your way, Mae. I've realized I'm overwhelmed by the more voluminous ones and probably need to stick with a sleeker silhouette.

Alright- because I promised, April, here's my newly organized closet and, as I suspected it doesn't look all that great in the photo, but oh lord, you should have seen it before. And it is a bizarre closet- long and narrow, which is why I'm loving the double rod for pants and skirts.

The hanging cloth shelves aren't going to work- knits end up sort of jumbled because the shelf part doesn't stay flat, so any suggestions are appreciated. I have to see everything because for me, out of sight is out of mind.

Scarves- Angie's post today has me on the hunt for more scarves....

Thanks for taking the plunge to post photos! You did a great job. How much stuff did you get rid of?

I know what you mean about the hanging cloth shelves. I've had the same experience with them not hanging as crisply as I would like. You can fix that if you can find something rigid that's the same width as each cubby. The cheapest thing I can think of would be to get a big piece of foamcore from one of the craft chain stores and cut it into sizes that would fit snugly in each cubby. Can you picture what I'm talking about?

Oh- great idea, April! That would do the trick. And now that I've gotten reacquainted with how to post photos, I'm going to try to keep it up.

I've gotten rid of at least 6 full size shopping bags of clothes- and it does feel good.

My challenge now is to create a dressing area that is organized and pretty, to encourage outfit creativity. My current closet-to-changing-to-mirror system is not the best.

April and Sinead, thanks for posting photos, it's inspirational when you see others well organized.

Excellent inspiration, ladies! That folding video was fantastic. But I was definitely chuckling alongside April when she started on the thongs. Man, that woman can make a thong look so packaged!

Sinead, your closet looks great and I love how you've hung your scarves!

AJ, thanks for that link! My t's are all folded soooo nicely now......and the thong folding thing was good for a chuckle!
