Turn 'em Around

There I was, stalking someone on fb and they responded to a wonderful idea... one I might not have thought of on my own, but one I now consider my own.  An easy way to sort through your hanging clothes.




1. Go to your closet.
2. Turn on the light. 
3. Turn all the hangers (with clothes on them) the wrong way (opposite way, backward, etc.).
4. As you wear and wash the clothes, hang them back up the regular way (the way you always have). 
5. In six months, any clothes still hanging on a backwards hanger means you haven't worn them... and you probably are not going to.  
6. Remove the clothes from your home, quickly.
7. Repeat.

Feel free to do this to your spouses and children's closets. They will think you are weird for turning them all around, but most will not take the time to turn them back to normal... and in 6 months you'll know what they've been wearing and what they haven't.  

And what shall we do with all the extra coat hangers we will be getting rid of?  
Recycle them into chandeliers?
