Closet Clean Out- Linens & Things

Source: IHeart Organizing 

The linen closet is one of those areas that just never stays clean. I don't care what Martha Stewart says about folding the sheets it never works out for me. I must be a remedial sheet folder. I wonder if Martha teaches classes for that?   Moving on...Ready for the before picture..No haters right??

At this point I fired the maid.. ;-) 

It's bad isn't it. Ugh. IHeart Organizing challenges have motivated me to clean and donate! First I had to have a plan.  Fold the bedding together (fitted& flat) and use the wire plate racks to stack the sheets but because I already have wire racks I would need to make some kind of new boards. That brought me to my next thought..which would be BUDGET..

Budget was pretty much non-exisitent so I hired  required ahem.. some help. :-) The girls like to help  clean too.  Managed to wrangle all the medicine and vitamins randomly around the house into one area. Headed to the dollar store and look for something that would work..  These basket below were available and they had a couple of hard rectangle bins I picked up. 

I love this look with the baskets!

First we pulled everything out and started folding and matching. I could not believe I had so many sheets. The sheets,blankets that I hardly ever use or did not need anymore went into a donate box. I placed a sheet set into a pillow case and it just didn't look pretty. So the bags I normally carry my laundry in I decided to repurpose to hold the sheets in.  I made some cute little tags on my Silhouette to place on the front and everything is sorted.  Whew! Ready to see?

Yeah! Done! It really didn't take that long to sort through. I am happy with the way everything looks.  Now on to the Loo. Have you started spring cleaning yet??

Ok Side by Side.
