I still had our mittens/hats/scarves in there, in a big container on the floor, but it was always a mess. Last week I came up with the idea of using a sweater organizer thing for our winter accessories (I found it at Target for $10). We each get a 'cubby', and hopefully this will keep things in order. All that is needed now is a few more mittens and gloves. I'm thinking I might make a bunch of Easy Mittens from Timberlane Press, out of some black WindBloc I have. This way, when one of the mittens gets lost (as always happens, right?) I can easily make a new mate. I'll also pick up a few of those 'one size fits all' stretchy gloves. Those are perfect for just running errands, and I always buy black, so again, when one gets lost, I can still make pairs.
How sad is it that I took a photo of my closet, and that it makes me happy to see it organized? :/

this looks so great! You must be so proud of yourself!
Must be something with men & coats. Mine complained that I had way too many coats and after we counted he had twice as many as me!Shamed him into getting rid of some anyway!
I totally understand about how happy you are in having a neat, organized closet! I have to tell you that I am impressed that you have all of your winter coat issues resolved. I don't think I was this organized when my girls were small!
OMG, I love the closet organizer thing! I wonder if I have enough room to squeeze one into my closet....
Right now I have small rubbermaid bins with each kid's name on them by the back door (our closet is by the front door--inconvenient!)
