Recycle What?

So I've been recycling for several years now (as I hope you all have been too!)  This morning I decided to check in with the LA Bureau of Sanitation's website to see what, if anything, had changed regarding what they will accept.  To my surprise (and maybe yours?) they now accept all plastics, 1-7, and many other items I would not have thought  I could recycle.  Plastic laundry baskets?  Yes!  Styrofoam cups and containers?  Yes!  Plastic hangers?  Yes!  And much much more!  Click HERE to see for yourself, and I'm off to get a bigger recycling bin!

Heaven in a Handbag

I recently helped my client Amanda move into her new home. Although she now has more closet space, it is configured differently and the old systems for storing purses and handbags no longer work.  We took a trip to The Container Store and picked up some shoe cubbies and accessory hangers.  Shoe cubbies are great for shoes :) but are also perfect for storing smaller accessories.  We used them for her clutches and wallets.  Bigger handbags were more of a challenge - we came up with the idea of hanging them on accessory hangers.  Amanda can now see each and every bag and get to the one she wants when she wants it!

Shoe cubbies are great for storing clutches and wallets.
