Armoirs, Chiffirobes, Wardrobes, Tall-boys, whatever you call them in your part of the country... closets that are furniture, not built in closets. I also have shoe racks and hooks on the backs of all the bedroom doors where gowns, robes, and daily wear clothes like my 'barn skirt' hang between wearings, a couple of hall-trees and a long row of hooks on a wooden piece in the mud room where all the jackets, hoodies, etc hang and some boot racks and a hat rack in there as well. We also just have fewer clothes since moving here. In our old home, where we had two walk in closets in the master bedroom I kept them stuffed by frequent trips to the mall and Don had a suit collection for church.
Now we have dedicated ourselves to simplicity... I put most those clothes in Rubbermade tubs in the attic and 'shop' from them when I need new stuff. I only keep what I can fit in my wardrobe in my room and honestly I have not bought an article of clothing in six years. I have purposed to give much of my clothing away to the next rummage sale at the local UPC church since I will probably never have need again of the more fancy and expensive dresses I have (well except maybe my vintage Gunne Sax
). Don has two suits (for weddings and funerals). This life on the farm is a different life and it has made us different people with different needs... and closets just aren't one of them.
