The closet was part of the addition from the last people who lived here. It was built at the grand size of 8 feet by 16 feet (no one needs a closet this big!) They were odd about shelving placement, so we put in a few portable shelving units, and had to install a rod for hanging clothes. By the way, this old farmhouse has zero linen/towel/coat closets. You can imagine how much was stored in this one single addition closet.
The last family who lived here, had a father who owned a cabinetry and cement business, that eventually went belly up while we lived here.
Anywho, those Kahlua bottles were dumped, soaked and cleaned. Sigh. Like I said, I am so glad we are having to do this, as it gets me even more organized.
Thankfully, I finished the closet. I only have to pull out some empty shelving units prior to the carpet removal. Meanwhile, the grass is getting cut while we have this 86°F day.
Windows are open to get some fresh air circulating with all the dusting going on. I'm taking advantage of the sun and warmer temperature while we are getting it. It won't last past the weekend.
