Decluttering closets....again

 Our home is neat and tidy most of the time-except for the closets. I will declutter and organize, and a couple months later they are overrun with stuff again. I just spent the last 3 days going through everything we own-every closet, drawer and cupboard in the house.  I was shocked that I found about 8  bags of stuff to give away or throw away! This time I labeled the drawers and bins in the kitchen and bathroom closets so my kids know where to put things.

 Here are some of the things I found while organizing that we have needed recently:

• glue gun
• gift bags
• a necklace
• missing game cards
• nail clippers
• post-it notes
• trash bags
• an overdue library book
