Organizational Challenge: Putting Away the Winter Wears

We've done closet organization, household organization, outside...you name it...the in's and out's of your house should be pretty squared away. As always staying on top of these little tasks takes time and effort so section off some time during your Saturday challenges to check on these small areas and make sure nothing is amiss.
Today's Challenge is totally new to me--it's something I have never done before...Most people have 2 basic wardrobes-winter/fall (cold) and spring/summer (warm). This Saturday let's start to move the wardrobe...if it's still cold where you you may need to postpone this task-however, you can still get the necessary supplies to follow thru with.

You'll need: 3--Large Square Clear Storage Containers
                       Duck Tape/packing tape
                       Marker/Sharpie
                       Safety Pins
 If you have children or a larger family you may need more tubs but let's not take everything out of the closet..

Today's Challenge:  Remove winter gloves, hats, large jackets from the closet.  Focus on the biggest items...you can leave sweaters and sweat shirts-they should already fit well in your closet.  Divide the bins either by person or item. Pin gloves that match together.

Bin One-Hats & Gloves
Bin Two-Jackets
Bin Three-Boots/Bibs

Just making this small step to put the winter items aside will help keep your house more organized. Store away and next year no need to buy new because some are missing just pull out your bins and allocate accordinagly.

Challenge Issued!
