Closet Organization Update

Remember that guest room closest I was ashamed of? Well here it is:
We had a snow day so I decided to use my time wisely and organize a bit. This closet is now the home of my party dresses, some of Sergio's shoes, & linens. I found that the sweater organizer that's hanging is the easiest way for me to keep our towels & bedclothes in order. Not too bad for a closet that was a mess this morning!

And I also worked on one corner of our basement:
Serg had bought this wire shelving months ago and just kept tossing his tools & random things he bought at Lowes & Home Depot on it. I took some time to go through all the Home Depot bags & boxes & crap and you would be shocked to know how many things he bought twice because he didn't know he already had it! To solve his problem, I used some plastic bins I had from my classroom and organized all the pieces. Then I labeled them:
So now when he asks me where his screwdriver is... you know, the one that was in his sock drawer (I kid you not), he'll know the exact bin to find it in AND return it to. Maybe I'm a little anal retentive, but hopefully this will help with his compulsion for buying caulk. Uh, do you see that giant bin labeled "Caulk, Grout, & Plaster"?... *sigh*
