Hanging In There,

MERCY....another busy day took place, but it was 
v e r y  productive to say the least.  I went to TOPEKA needing a few items and came HOME without these items, BUT I wasn't empty handed.  Other stuff came with me instead.  POUT.  I think today will be a day of getting those things I didn't get yesterday for I will be out and about later this afternoon.

I came HOME with 2 cute stand up BUNNIES priced at $2 each.  Too cute to not get... also a bunny wreath for $1.  For $5 I will decorate for the HOLIDAY.  

For that other stuff...Not searching for these items.  They found me.  2 dolls, a beautiful glass fruit bowl, relish tray, EASTER CARDS for a quarter each, etc.  I had therapy at the THRIFT STORE along with a JUDEE's affordable coffee and outstanding peanut butter cookie.  Never made it to Bed, Bath and Beyond to purchase my hangers.

FANTASTIC SPACE SAVERS.  I wanted to get some more SPECIALTY HANGERS to organize my small cedar lined closet.  The hanger is made out of a heavier metal with 5 individual hangers dangling from the main handle.  COLOR CODING my blouses.  I have 1 for denim tops, 2 hangers for black blouses, 1 for grey articles, 2 for white long sleeve and short sleeves, 1 tan, 1 light blues, 1 pink, 1 green, 1 orange.  As the clothing lies out on the bed to be transferred to the specialty hangers, I know more hangers are needed.  I bought the ones I have now from Bed, Bath and Beyond.  I have been very pleased with them.

I would like to have one for each array of additional colors such as red, dark blue, yellows, purple....basically the color wheel.  Multiple colored tops as well with splashes of designs and patterns grouped together.  

I fold my t-shirts and sweatshirts that rest on a shelf along with rolled bluejeans and hand purses.  

While out shopping SAMS did not leave me unhappy as I bought a gardening hat.  I never wear hats so this one is really special.  Practical in this day and age of damaging sun rays.  

Wore the hat while shopping and just about forgot to pay for it when checking out because it was so comfortable.  Felt like I had had it forevah already.  Purchased organic carrots, celery, milk. spring greens, solar lights, hat, some flowers, apples, oranges, magazine.  HAPPY CAMPER.

ON THE HOME FRONT
Right at the moment I have too many projects waiting for attention.  It begins to bother me at times.  The closet needs organized, the kitchen cabinet needs sorted out, the linen closet redone, the coat closet sorted through.....I am still figuring where to go with photographs as they are in the coat closet.  The basement shelves need gone through and items thinned out, the carriage house cleaned out, garage cleaned out, the screened in porch repaired, furniture shuffled....stop.  I am exhausted just thinking about it.  Don't need to think so much about it just get started and go from there.  

Rehearsed PSALM 23 in the car while driving Grand daughter.  Will give her another week to memorize.  First week it was the first 3 verses.  This week it is the last 3 verses.  Next week it will be the entire PSALM.  It does me good to memorize scripture right along with her.  This was my Dad's favorite scripture and I think of him when reading it.  

PSALM 23 King James Version

23:1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

Today, I will purchase more specialty hangers and continue to work on closet tomorrow.  Eggs boiled and while they're cooling I will switch out clothing.  Multi-tasking to the rescue.  HANGING IN THERE.  

HANGERS bought, Easter box mailed, Easter cards addressed and sent, errand ran...will be my big accomplishments for the day.  Supper...well maybe Mexican food meal at the little local hub.

Chips and salsa with conversation.  

Can't get much sassier than that,

SALVATION For The Closet

I may have three closets 

in this old 1885 stone house,

but the closets are small in comparison to many a modern house 

or apartment.

Thinning out the number of clothing articles has been an ongoing project.  

Still I have a ways to go.

I looked high and low for tier hangers 

for my tops and blouses.

ALso KNOWN as a Blouse Tree Hanger.

High and low.

In this part of the world, it isn't easy to locate these.

 Finally I found two at a THRIFT Store and flipped.

Happy to get them.

Then I ventured into BED, BATH and BEYOND

and there they were waiting...just for me.

I have been grouping my clothes into two groups...casual and dressy.

Needing more to complete this task.

So far so good.

DENIM blouses are hanging together on one tier hanger.

CASUAL White tops hang together in one closet while the DRESSY White Blouses hang in another closet.

The same with my casual and dressy BLACK attire.

My REDS look great all together.

Next will be TAN and so on.

On four of these hangers I have 24 items altogether.  So I counted 24 hangers side by side.  These 24 hangers took up half my closet rod.  The tier hangers only took the space of four hangers side by side.  Impressive.  Wonderfully spacious.

Finally, I am getting organized by just HANGIN' around.

 I'll need to do the same with HUBBY's casual shirts.

NEAT TO KNOW!

With small closets, these tier hangers hold 6 items on one hanger utilizing the SPACE.

SALVATION FOR SMALL CLOSETS.

AMEN.

NEXT…slacks and jeans.

Love and Blessings,
