I cleaned out another closet yesterday and this time the mess wasn’t my husband’s.
Our spare bedroom closet has always been the repository for luggage, extra blankets, pillows and wrapping paper.
So much wrapping paper….
.
.
I also found a mink stole from Saks and a stuffed beaver… as one does.
.
.
Six overnight bags, four suitcases, a travel makeup case from 1974 that yes, I still use…. and a large bear that was supposed to go to Toys for Tots last Xmas.
There was also beach glass and gift bags.
.
.
Enough to last me into the next century…
.
.
And a whole lotta ribbon.
If you need a present wrapped, apparently I’m your girl.
A lot of the items got stuffed back in there, though much more neatly organized this time.
Heck… I can see the floor again.
I’m calling it a win.
.
River's world..... 
Ruthless yet merciful, nice.

The unspooled ribbons are my husband’s. He saves them when opening gifts…
Of course he does.

It sounds like everything has now been nicely re-organized, and it appears this area is WRAPPED up.

It certainly could be. There’s enough paper to wrap the entire room…

That beach glass would make a lovely windchime. I’m guessing the mink was your mummy’s. If so, I hope you can stillsmellher perfume on it.. I hope you gave away 80% of the wrapping items, otherwise…

The glass and the fur were both my mothers. I don’t really want them, but can’t seem to let go either….

Would be great to make a windchime then. I get the feeling she’ll very likely help you design it too. Put it indoors so she can let you know when she’s around. 😉

That’s a lovely idea. If I were crafty I’d do that.

A few years ago I had the husband redo a clothes closet with shelves to accommodate all my wrapping stuff. I love it.

Is Toys For Tots still collecting? Maybe it’s not the late for the Bear to get a new home.

Please tell me you kept the beaver.
