I have a confession to make...I currently am madly and passionately in love with only 2 things at the moment...my daughter and my newly cleaned out closet! This picture of 8 bags full of crap is only 1/2 the stuff Leonor carted out of my house last night. The total was 17 huge garbage bags.
In my defense, some of the clothes were over 20 years old. I couldn't believe the stuff I was holding onto.
Anyway, Leonor takes it all to her church, which sends it to Ecuador, her country of origin. Dot and I laugh that her poor village is probably the best dressed in Ecuador
And viola! The finished product. My shelving system is the Elfa system from the container store. What's great about it is that its totally changable. We did some changing around of the shelves as well. 
A closet one can walk into....
Shelves just waiting to be filled up again in the coming years....
Gorgeous!! 
I can't tell you how liberating it is to have all the junk out of the house. I feel that an albatross has been lifted from my shoulders. Is it wierd that I can't keep myself from going into the closet and ogling the set up?
I tell you, if I had to choose today between (1) a date with a hot guy who digs me and (2) a cleaned out and organized closet...I'll choose the closet every time!

Hey - I still see some clothing I recognize from our college days. The aqua print dress, the suede lavander jacket .... I hope the black dress made it into one of those bags.
