...Friday Favorites...Spring Cleaning...

...I love spring cleaning...do you?
...I emptied out my refrigerator to give it a good clean...completely empty...and this really only happens once a year...
...but I love when it's done...and everything is back in place nice and clean and bright and organized...so.worth.it...
...and back in the fall I showed you my drawers that I had thinned and straightened...and I meant to get back to it sooner than I did...but no time like the present...right...

...I sorted through all of my t-shirts and gave away about half of them...so now they all fit in one drawer along with my workout clothes...
...so now I have a completely empty bottom drawer...not sure yet what I'll put in there...long sleeved shirts or shorts or handknits...

...and then finally...I've got to tackle that closet...(right Mom?...you saw it)...it's overstuffed...I know I've got things in there I haven't worn in 5 years...and all of my winter/ski clothes are on the top shelf taking up a lot of room..

...so I thought I'd stash-bust me a big ole crocheted basket...
...and I thought this old moving box would be the perfect size...and I'll put handles in my basket like this box so it will be easy to move...
...I'm using 4 stands of yarn...just whatever I've got...this one is black/red/white...and I just join a new ball of one of those colours when I run out...it uses up a lot of yarn...and I have a lot to use up...so this is a win-win...I use up yarn that's just hanging around without a purpose...and I get a nice big basket to store my winter clothes in...
...it's going really quickly too...I'm hoping to be finished by the weekend so I can start organizing the closet...

...have you started spring cleaning yet?

~Have a lovely day!

  2. Amazing to see your fridge like that! I can imagine that the countertop was crowded with the stuff that was packed inside.

    That's how my fridge has looked for the past 4 months - we left it open and turned off. Love, K

  3. Not a fan - but is must be done! From the fridge I put all the drawers and shelves into the dishwasher, spray into the fridge and shut the door. After five minutes I open it and clean the inside and it is all ready for the freshly washed innards!
