Spring cleaning began in full force last night. I always love a good clean out, but this year it is looking like a whole new animal. Tyler and I caught the bug somehow and decided it was time to go through every dresser, closet, drawer, nook and cranny in our house. I had no idea how much stuff we have accumulated over the last 3 years since moving here. When we moved in I thought we had SO much storage and that we could never fill the place up. Now we are bursting at the seams. So, a massive clean out has begun. We spent 5 hours yesterday going through our bedroom (aka...all my crap). And this is what I/Tyler decided I don't need anymore.
One bedroom down. Basically this equals me emptying out one of my 3 closets. Yes, three I know. Now, Tyler gets to move some of his stuff into our room for the first time in our marriage. Generous of me, I know. All I can say is that Tyler better get all of this stuff out of my sight before I change my mind. I am tossing about 12 pairs of shoes and 10 bags. I don't do that. This is big.

Very impressive! It always feels nice to de-clutter!
Hurray for de-cluttering! I did the same thing last weekend only I got bored halfway through and so now there's a big pile of stuff on my floor waiting to be sorted. And reading your post gave me more motivation to do it so thanks for that.
Ooh, I love spring cleaning! I love having my closets empty and organized. Nice job Scotts!
Come help me decide what's crap. I'm really bad at throwing stuff away. :( It's easy for me to get rid of Christian's things, but so much harder when it's my own.
