Yup, I have succumbed to this wonderful "mind-boggling" contraption called MIRACLEFOLD. Mind boggling because it is such a simple contraption that made me think, why I never thought of it in the first place ! (Yup, sour graping here a bit :-()
Not so impressive...
I first saw this a couple of months back, but wasn't too impressed and thought that hey,
"Why do I need help with folding? I KNOW how to fold?! Folding is like knowing how to set the table right, fixing a frozen pipe, or knowing how to play BOGGLE!"
Ha! Was I wrong, what got me convinced was when I saw this video over at I HEART ORGANIZING...
So one Friday, I went from this...
Admit it, this looks just like your own sons drawer :-)
Closet what?!
Hubby cubby = bubbly mess
Wifey cubby = coraled mess
see!
To this...
Aaah! even my son appreciated this!!!
Look - more space after proper folding!
A place and space for everything
MUCH bettah!
Finally easy on the eyes
Hubbys shirts neatly tucked in the drawers
It has been a couple of weeks since I did this, and so far, the closets still looks quite organized. When I mentioned this to my hubby he said that he too felt a "little bit more careful" in trying to get his clothes since he also wanted to keep the organized look! Ha! SUCCESS!
And as for me, I'm a happier laundress/ folder/ mom/ wife! Haay, the joys of domestic chores realized.
O my goodness Vel, tees folded to exactly the same size, labels out so you can see what it is, in straight aligned piles and matching baskets - I'm going a little crazy over here :) I LOVE organization, I'm having the sudden urge to do this to my husband's closet ;) And I totally love how the before pics show your stuff as a coraled mess :) so cute!
Oh yeah! My son's drawers are even worse than those!:) But I would love to get the Miraclefold so my husband stops telling me: "I don't know how to do it that neat"!
Would love for you to link it up at my new Empty Your Archive link party which is a chance to dust off great posts from your archive - there is a focus this week on laundry - would really love to see you there, Alice @ Mums Make Lists x
Just found your blog via Sweet Parish Pl. I was looking over your blog, trying to find when you got the new sofa. Is it 8 way hand tied? If so, what is the model/name of it? The containers in your closets, where did you buy them? Thanks.

Hi Tammie!!! I got the sofa from a local retailer. It's from Thomasville. I'm not sure about the hand-tied thing but the cushions for the back are attached to the sofa. I will check my reciept to give you more specifics. the containers in the closet is from TARGET (White plastic one & Brown laundry basket) , I think they have it again now! Thanks for stopping by!
