Organizing Your Donations

My sister was doing a great job organizing her super fabulous closets. She pulled out her prized cashmere sweater collection and put into bags. She continued to switch over to her winter wardrobe. As she went through her closet she began to also purge items she did not want and put those items into bags. Soon she would make a trip to the Salvation Army for donation. I got a call from her later saying "I dropped off my entire cashmere sweater collection the the Salvation Army"!
It is no fun when this happens. Thats why you have to keep track of what you are keeping and what is trash or donation. I recommend 2 colors of bags when you are organizing. White trash bags for donation and black trash bags for garbage. If you need to label the white bags with a sharpie its a cinch! Write donation, friends, family whatever label you need. Just be sure to label bags when you cant see whats inside!
