Use a cute country tag to label the type (i.e. twin fitted), then clothespin it to the ribbon or string. I've done it and it's an attractive way to organize a lot of sheets/pillowcases into a small area - plus if you're like me, you'll end up giving away a box full of linens you rarely used.

Old clothes given away or tossed. Garbage, recycling, etc. We replace broken items, new sheets, etc. She starts a new year at school and gets a new room (sort of) at the same time.

While she's away I take care of her flowers, pick up her mail and I always like to keep her place clean. She's got a very old vacuum cleaner, it's huge and heavy and only works if you slam it. Winning this contest would make my life easier! My neighbour loves to travel and she’s most of the times away.

As soon as i get junk mail i toss it or shred it. I also periodically go through closets and give away what we are not using. I keep up with clutter. As soon as i get junk mail i toss it or shred it.

Amazing how many extra single socks we had! We are organizing different rooms until we have all of them done! We have gone and will be going back frequently to the graveyard on Cemetery Hill and pick up any trash or uck that doesn't belong and dust and clean the headstones and statues of our family and the ones around us too!
