i am cleaning up my closet and i am having fun. found clothes that i was looking for that was under the folded jackets and sweat shirt that i don not use often. i found 7 kinds of perfume/cologne that relatives gave that are still sealed (i can sell this har har har) i also found a few PS2 cd that i finished playing but would like to do it again. found the partner of a few socks that i thought the partners was lost already (showed it to my wife and she said to make sure the socks are interlocked with the partners har har har). found also pictures and stuff that i thought was not there. i hope i can find money as well.

Gosh! Now THATS what I called the hidden treasures from a while! Hi se7enthbird! I havent cleaned my closet recently but normally when I do clean it what I normally find is pocket change (thank God too cause it appears at a time that I need it!) or I find some paperwork from my work that I was looking for and forgot were I had placed it.. if you cant find it in your room, you can bet its in the closet. :D

not fun for me as i feel so lazy to clean my closet but i have no other choice but to clean them. though sad coz i found some old clothes that still new and never use or wear them. and so sad coz i need to sell some that didnt fit me anymore and some i need to give out so that other can use it. though funny thing is i able to see something that i've been looking for so many years and that stuck into the side and other things that i cant ever imagine i still see them.

so many years? so you dont clean your closet that often? har har har. thats funny. but i guess thats natural too. sometimes we end up buying than looking for the things that we know we have and lazy to dig inside our closet. thanks a lot for the response

Hmmm I don't have a closet rather I hang my clothes in a kind of cabinet with no doors LOL but a curtain. The other things I put in separate 5 drawer box. But nonetheless I have not really been cleaning that. I have plans to clean them before the Christmas season so I can discard items of clothing that I don't use anymore but are still good to give as bundles of joy for others. But I had some items pulled out from my "closet" like receipts that I have been looking for. Then i saw a wooden picture frame which don't have a photo and my cousin said she'll give me a photo of her graduation. Then I found some glitter glue which was a long time ago still in plastic. Well, I had fun pulling out the items and I guess I will have fun too cleaning it up.

guess you found good stuff too. there is always something there that is useful and like you said maybe it is no loner useful for you but useful for others. the perfumes/colognes that i found was really cool, i never thought that was a lot already. i just accept it and put it inside my closet. since my wife gave birth we dont wear a lot of perfume. thanks a lot of the response

har har har i agree that there are also things there inside that wasnt meant to be there, that sometimes we just throw it in and can not see it when we need it already. sometimes cleaning up my closet is not fun but when i start to see things that i though was missing it builds up the erge to dig in. thanks a lot for the response

cleaning the closet is one task that i procrastinate. just two weeks ago, it is so full already that the newly-ironed clothes can no longer be accommodated. i thought it was really time to act. i don't enjoy cleaning and arranging the closet so i sought the help of my daughter. after doing it, we had boxes of seldom-used and ill-fitting clothes which were ready for their trip to the province ... we decided to give them away to relatives. cleaning closets becomes fun when u see something u have lost and searched in the past and gave up looking and there it "resurrects" in front of u! , once i found a P1,000 bill in my house dress pocket (been there unnoticed by the househelper when laundered and ironed, lol) and i was glad as i had it at a time that i needed it

thats the reason why i need to clean my closet. wife just finished folding and ironing my clothes and there are no rooms to fit it. i guess i had a few new clothes, towels and pants for my aunt who lives at UK gave us some stuffs as an early christmas gifts. so i need to clean so i can pack the things i no longer use or keep the clothes that i dont use much or only use on occasions. thanks a lot for the response

I must admit cleaning my closet is not a fun thing to do.LOL. But the good thing about it, well aside from all your clothes are neatly arranged and the scattered shirts are already pilled up. I may find things that I thought I don't have. True, because I once want to buy a pink shirt that i'll be needing to our x'mas presentation and was surprised while cleaning my closet I found a pretty pink shirt that I bought four years ago. :) It saves me a few bucks! and my closet is all nice and pretty.

har har har bought four years ago? so you are not cleaning your closet frequently? i do clean mine specially the clothes part every three months but the part with cds and dvds and gadgets i dont clean it much for it is neatly arranged but once you put new stuff there are old stuff that goes under that are not that visible. thanks a lot for the response

The thing about this is the old perfumes. Once upon a time a long time ago somebody gasve me a set of old perfumes that they found in similar circumstances. One of those was in a little green bottle and was obviously girlie stuff and was the best ever perfume/cologne I ever used. I've since searched all over for the perfume and have even forgotten the name but it was undoubetedly the best I ever had.

I want to admit to you that cleaning my closet is never a fun thing for me, i had too many junks in it, it is very time consuming for me to clean it up, but i do it anyway once a while. Usually those missing old items will pop out whenever i clean my closet, and i will definitely find some pennies in it that i can add into my piggy bank.

I love cleaning my closet. It usually takes me hours to get it clean because I'm always stuck discovering clothes that I've never knew I had. I usually try those clothes that I seldom wear and pair it with anything.
