planning for success...

we made some tags last week... the kids and i. we picked out our outfits on Sunday night... we checked them twice to be SURE they were just as the girls wanted them.we laid down the LAW. NO CHANGING. ever. even if you don't like the shirt that you picked out... the results... 30 minute outfit re-negotiations each morning have disappeared. ellie is happy every morning. the girls are fairly matching... and, there is peace here. Monday- Saturday clothing labels... simple. but effective. we made ours with stuff i had because it was Sunday and i'm saving money these days, and, i was even out of ink... but... -here are some printable hangers... - this is where i got my idea... theirs are cuter! -and here are some fabric covered hangers that would be fun too!! -you could try felt... oh the possibilities... (even my boys made some clothing hangers, although the only problem that they have with picking outfits is that they wear the same thing everyday, because it is on the end. ROTATION is a good thing...)

  1. Love this idea. Wonder if we can make this work in the almost nonexistent closet space because our current abode is 50+ years old! hehehe Thanks for sharing.
