Extreme Makeover: Soap & Paper Storage Solutions
Perversely, despite being plagued by my own clutter control issues, I am actually quite good at editing down other people's stuff. This skill has been put to the test a lot in the last couple of months, as I somehow ended up streamlining two friends' closets (one in L.A., one in New York) and also took a trip out to Vegas to help my father-in-law move, a Herculean endeavor composed of sifting through everything he'd amassed after 40 years of living in the same house. So now I'm turning to the totally dysfunctional, grossly overflowing state of my home closet. Of course, my fantasy purchase of 2008 is custom-designed
California Closets. Ideally, I'd have lots of built-in cedar drawers, row upon row of shelving to stack all my sweaters, endless individual cubbies for all myshoes, and I've even started to imagine what accessories I'd add to trick things out even further.
Topping mylist of obsessionsare these ridiculously prettyverbena-scented drawer liners
by the Soap & Paper Factory and a complete set of these handsome
cherry wood hangersmonogrammedwith my initials-both of which, come to think of it, would make reallyexcellent housewarming gifts.
