This was just the case with me though. you guys may not have any issues. ooh and label your boxes! i forgot to do that and it sucked lolMaviDenizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00492632576832560580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7394851979340127843.post-51719045376495936422011-06-25T16:08:12.755-07:002011-06-25T16:08:12.755-07:00Happy moving to you!

I'm a new follower but one thing I found to be helpful when I moved was to wrap those "need protection but not bubble wrap" kind of items in towels/washclothes/dish rags. It'll help you save the bulkier, more expensive wrap for those really breakable items. Good luck!Alyssahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00225242975147233102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7394851979340127843.post-26334998687419398732011-06-22T07:22:52.870-07:002011-06-22T07:22:52.870-07:00Congratulations!!

If you are putting things into boxes then label, label, label. Don't expect to unpack and have everything perfect in a day or even a week - give yourself some time and a break. Hmmmm, my hubby and I have never shared a closet (I usually take the closet in the guest bedroom or in our last house we had two closets in the master bedroom - I miss those days - lol) so I don't have any advice there. Good luck and most importantly try to have fun and take lots of breaks :o)SpryOnTheWallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16149135530530458132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7394851979340127843.post-42595689147303342642011-06-20T19:02:19.315-07:002011-06-20T19:02:19.315-07:00Congrats on the move!

I would say just pack a little each day so that it's not overwhelming and bring a little over at a time and unpack as you go so you don't have to do it all at once.

The one thing that's been helping me is taking it one step at a time and not focusing too much on the big picture because that's when it gets overwhelming. <br />Good luck with your move! :)Anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17595919418765706821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7394851979340127843.post-27551012403463947582011-06-20T18:03:14.987-07:002011-06-20T18:03:14.987-07:00Yayyy sooo exciting!!!

Or...You should declutter before you start moving... Organizing experts claim that you only need 10-15 outfits and five pairs of shoes for each season. Sounds scary to me but most people wear the same things over and over. <br /><br />Also, when it comes to other "stuff" lying around your house ask yourself "Do I really need this or do I just like it?". Nine chances out of 10 you don't need it... It is taking up space in your life and your apartment.. <br /><br />Good luck to you! I'm moving in a few weeks also so I've been doing a lot of research on how to make the move easier. :)The Southern Newlywedhttp://www.southern-newlywed.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7394851979340127843.post-9605299715975802662011-06-20T12:58:27.650-07:002011-06-20T12:58:27.650-07:00make a fun playlist! you can listen to music while...make a fun playlist! you can listen to music while you unpack and it'll lighten the mood a bit :) anddd make sure you have snacks! we forgot about this the day we moved in together and by the end we were exhausted and starving... hooray for pizza delivery. xoxo jillian:: <a href="http://www.cornflakedreams.com/" rel="nofollow">cornflake dreams</a>jillian :: cornflake dreams.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05251596047254927400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7394851979340127843.post-37434432618779963392011-06-20T12:54:16.839-07:002011-06-20T12:54:16.839-07:00I obviously just had a bizarre cut and paste misha...I obviously just had a bizarre cut and paste mishap!
