Extreme Makeover: Closet Edition

I decided to surprise my husband by cleaning and organizing his closet. It was a big job as you will see from the before and after photos. In this duplex we are renting, we have been blessed with big closets. Since Mike's closet is downstairs by our office, we store a few office type things in his closet as well as a few other odds and ends. As a result, it can get a little messy and disorganized as we add or take away stuff! But now, it looks pretty darn good, if I do say so myself. Before(above): Overall messy closet

After (above): Overall clean closet

Before (above): Messy floor of closet

After (above): clean floor of closet. I even vacumed.

Before (above): Clothes not organized on hangers and mess on shelf above. And below, After: Clothes organized by color and type with more organized piles of clothes on the shelf above. It won't stay like that forever but at least I have photos to prove that at one time, it was organized!

Good job!!! Glad you took the pics to remind yourself. I should do that every time I do the dishes or laundry. It is always so depressing when it's messy again!

Impressive my friend! Look at those vaccuum marks. I love those, but not enough to vaccuum as often as I should. Dang!!

You are an inspiration! I cleaned (more like GUTTED) the cabinet underneath our downstairs bathroom last week. It was HORRID! Felt so good to get it done. Now I need to tackle a closet or two.

Looks great! Yes, actually, Bono sings two songs and makes an appearance. He sings "I am the Walrus", and "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds"

He is such a great singer.
