Progress! With pictures!
Yesterday I waged war on the boxes in my larger closet. We shall now call it many different things (Sam's room, Alice's recruitment office, the doll closet, the doll room, the room that geek built) but they all refer to the walk in closet.
It started out pretty full of boxes. And by pretty full I mean there was probably a very small section of floor not covered by something aside from carpet. Now it's about half-full of boxes and stuff. Some of this is a cheat, like the box of posters that will probably live in there more often than not until I feel like finding the other closet (egads) and some of it was hard won.
Things would have moved faster if I hadn't spent the entire afternoon waiting on Widget to come tell me it was pool time. He never came because he ditched me and ran off to a friend's house and no one told me. So while I never got too into the spirit of "UNBOX IT ALL!" for fear of getting in too deep and not being able to resume after swim times, I did manage to still find a place for quite a few dolls.
If I can remember where the camera is, I'll show you some pics of how it currently is. Or try, anyway. I'm trying to figure out what to do next. I'd originally planned on buying another small bookcase and using it for storage but then I realized that I really want to keep a good chunk of the remaining floor space (or what will be floor space once the boxes are unpacked or dealt with) empty so I can um, play. Or hide. The AG stuff is pretty large since they are pretty large, and the ultimate plan is to set up a bit of a revolving display in there.
The MH army doesn't really disrupt this plan on its own, but then you remember my MyScene fleet and the Pullip Parade and, well, things just got real crowded. I'm thinking that the MyScene Army can go on the top shelf and I'll rotate them out as I feel the need, again with a few on permanent display on lower shelves. It's the Pullips I'm really concerned about. There are quite a few and they're pretty darn fragile as well as larger than the MS army (but perhaps not in numbers) so I'm not sure whether they'll fit on the built in bookcases that the MH army already swiped.
Pictures would really help you guys, huh?
( Luckily I can do that. )
Kitty thanks you for your time.
