High Stack X Huge Basket: Cleaning Up My Closet

I said i'm sorry mama,

I never meant to hurt you,

I never meant to make you mad,

that’s why today

i'm cleanin' up my closet...

 

you know it’s high time to

clean up your closet when you

  • repeat wearing the few tee shirts
  • can’t seem to find certain pieces
  • yet remember seeing it among the sea of clothes
  • the clothes stacko is almost collapsing

 

I have this tray

or maybe you would call it a basket

supposed to be

putting my stack of clothes

those shirts and shorts worn at home

 

yet

it is always filled up

with clothes,

just freshly-washed and folded

just rejected from wearing them out

hence this is also the

“unclassified” tray

waiting to be categorized

before putting them back

with their respective kind

overfloodingclassification of clothes

 

 

the respective categories are as below:

  • shorts / hot pants
  • long pants / 3/4 / or anything in between
  • cardigan / sweater / hoodies
  • dress / skirt / romper
  • tee / blouse / tunic
  • spag / tube / tank top

 

one of the closets

with the Post-It label

Spag/tank/tube top

 

the basic tray of homewear

back to how it is supposed to look

everything else

back to where it belongs

homewear

 

this is just the basic step

to clear out the eyesore

yet in the respective closets

eg: the spag/tank/tube top closet

they are all mingling happily with each other

whenever I need a specific piece of spag top

then I still have to

ransack the particular closet

among the more “micro” community of

spag/tank/tube tops

 

and I never have the determination

to clear out clothes

which I have ceased wearing long time ago
