our working closet

Until a week or two ago, my partner's + my closet held the access to our attic. Each time the wiring needed to be accessed or a squirrel needed to be relocated (!), I cleared much of our closet to make way. We finally moved the attic access to the hallway + were free to make a few changes that make better use of our closet as a result. 

​I felt strongly about
 the look I wanted to achieve, and it just makes me smile to look at our closet now. I love the warmth of the wood (this shelving) + the baskets. It functions a treat with stacks of each category of clothing + things we want to keep out of sight corralled in baskets. ​

​The simplicity we've honed in our wardrobes is working nicely for us here. Knowing what we like to wear again + again allows us to keep the number of pieces minimal + the color palette cohesive. For me, this is just another benefit of having a simple wardrobe. 

​I really wanted to have all of my clothing in one place. The amount of space felt adequate, so I set about letting go of some things that I like (love even), but don't wear often. This process feels like taking the chips I actually want to eat out of the bag + placing them in a bowl. When I see them in the bowl, I can recognize enough + will likely eat less than if I just ate them mindlessly out of the bag while watching a movie.

I feel really good about choosing what I love, being able to see it + knowing I don't need more. That's all, and it's so good!  :)

Love,
Jane
