I too have a dresser piled with in between clothes. I love that you’re celebrating them here. I’m wondering if there is a more intentional way we can store them so it feels less in the way??? Mine also sit on my dresser, but under the TV and they block the little sensor for the remote so I find myself constantly shifting the clothes over. But then they block my clock. So I have to shift them back and forth until I find that sweet spot in between. But then it partially blocks my tv screen. Can’t win. Do you have plans to store them differently? Or do you plan to continue to store them on top of the dresser? Is there even another way to store these in between clothes? I can’t think of anything lol I feel like the top of the dresser is the only way that makes sense.

I also have in between shoes, bags, hats, and scarves. They linger in the hallway, by the front door. I don’t want to put them away, because I need them accessible. I may have figured out a way to celebrate them. I got a hall tree, and now it holds my in between bags, hats and scarves. It’s like if you took a mud room and turned it into standalone furniture. I still need a place to store my in between shoes. How do you store these things?

Happy in between week and happy new year :)

I think you should just burn all your clothes. Or your dresser.

Just kidding. My dresser is shoved inside my closet so when piles be piling, I can just slide my closet shut and pretend they don't exist and live in peace. So my recommendation is for you to find a way to not see your problems. Chaos doesn't exist if you can't see it!

Alternatively, I think a hamper or basket could be good to just toss the in-betweenies inside, away from the cleanies.
