Doing it backwards that way seems to make it easier, plus I can throw the box in a closet or up on a table to keep the kids from getting in it if I'm interrupted (or should I say when...). I think I"ll do the shelves the same way.
LOL - this is what I do! It is almost easier for me to do it this way because I am NEVER INTERUPTED (ha!)!! Glad to know I am not the only one! :D

I have been doing this for about a couple of weeks now. my church has a family that is in great need and I have given 2 grocery bags full of food/cleaning products from my stockpile. I also have gotten one bag of clothes together and am working on the second bag. I try to get two bags of donations a week and deliver them on tues evening. I will be giving extra school supplies my kids can't use.
Ok, I may be way out of the loop here, but who is FlyLady? What kind of tips does she have ... and how can I learn from her. I REALLY need all the help I can get.
I did get a head start on my bathroom project of tomorrow, and cleaned out our medicine area. Boy, did our trash can fill up fast!!! LOL

hi
I am enjoying my bathroom closet and how organized it is. It didn't take very long. Why do we put off stuff. What are you girls going fling next? I think I am going to try to do the kids' clothes and get them organized before school!!! Allgirls I like your idea that send great. I would have a hard time storing it!!!
Thanks for the inspiration!!

okay so far tonight I have 2 bags of clothes and started a bag of fall/winter clothes. I also have 1 bag of groceries and the bag of school supplies.
4littlesmiths- I normally wouldn't store but the church has requested the items being dropped off on tues so they don't get overwhelmed. and given the circumstances I can practice patience. two single moms were sharing rental house and the house caught fire. one mom died and the other was injured. an aunt took in the kids. the aunt had 8 kids and the two woman had 5 between them. the mom that died left behind 4 young kids. the other mom is with aunt still recoperating. they need everything.
That is such a great thing to do!! We live in a very small community and when ever there is a fire or such. Ths school send a neat home with the kids and everyone donates what they can-----clothes, money, and such. We also do what we can!!!
Thanks for the challange! I have 2 big bags of clothing to take to goodwill and a tote full to take to the consignment store. My biggest challange is getting my kids to part with the toys they no longer play with.
