Can't wait to see spring flowers.

Happy Saturday Ladies!
I hope you're enjoying your weekend.

Today, I decided to go through my drawers and get rid of clothes I don't wear anymore/don't want. I'm going to take them to Plato's Closet (a shop here that gives you money for your gently worn clothes) and whatever they don't take, I'm going to donate. I'm pretty good at getting rid of things I don't need, use, or wear any longer. Unlike my mom who likes to keep things "just in case". If it wasn't for me, she might have things from 5 years ago that haven't been touched. If you aren't using it, give it to someone who needs it. Where do you ladies donate your un-wanted clothes to? I don't know of many places around here so I need some ideas.

Then Snuggles and I decided to take a trip to PetSmart. She needed some treats, bones, and a new baby (that's what we call her toys lol). Plus, I haven't taken her out in a while due to the weather. She was beyond excited, crying the whole way there. She loves seeing the other dogs there and sniffing around lol. I decided to make her look nice before we went though . . .

Like her little pink bow and flower bandana? lol
She's getting ready for spring time.
And why does she look like a long hair chihuahua today?
Maybe I need to get her a hair cut. She's cute though.
Do your fur-babies like going to PetSmart?

Have a great Saturday & Sunday!

Aww, she looks sooo adorable!! What an adorable little puppers :-)

I hope you got some moolah for your things! We have a Plato's Closet up here too. Though for the most part I just go straight to Good Will. I've had a few experiences where I'm like, "WHAT?? You don't WANT that??" and it just frustrates when they won't give just a few bucks for good, stylish clothes :-)

I bought a lavendar OPI polish today in hopes that it gets me in the SPRING mood! I can't wait either :-) Have a great Saturday Brittany!

I tend to not be able to take Tilly where there are a ton of dogs. Since she is a rescue she can be a little aggressive. She just barks and barks. Doesn't attack, just barks! Sounds like a great day!

Maybe I need to get some spring flowers for our house to brighten it up...I've got spring fever bad!

I had never heard of Plato's Closet until this afternoon when they had an ad on the radio. I might have to check it out when I finally get around to cleaning out my closet!

I wish Brody liked to go places like Snuggles! He gets carsick and overall just hates riding. I would love to take him places like PetSmart but it just isn't possible :(.

I wish my lil girl would let me put crap on her. She is such a poor sport when it comes to playing dress up! I try bows almost daily and she shakes em out..Stubborn shiztu! I love Plato's!

I wish I was good at giving things away. But I'm just such a hoarder. I still occasionally wear things that are about ten years old!

Brittany said...

Awww! She's so cute! Avery loves going out places but whenever he gets out he loves giving hugs and kisses and well most people can't stand a 100 lb Lab jumping on them! :) But I love me some Avery kisses and hugs!

I mostly donate to Goodwill. It's the easiest place to find for me.

My mom is just like your mom! She will save things 'just in case' all the time! If I had a dollar for every time she's said 'just in case' oh, I would be rich!

Your baby looks so precious! Millie always has a bow in her hair, and wears clothes on special occasion :)

We donate to a local womens and mens shelter. You could do research and donate there. This way you know exactly where its going. Otherwise you can always donate to the salvation army!

:) My mom and I had this exact same conversation. How important it is to donate what we arent using (But is still NICE) to those who can and will use it! :)

We have Buffalo Exchange here - same thing though, really. I took some clothes there one time - which included two brand new dresses, both with the tags still on, one was Betsey Johnson and the other was Anne Taylor. And they wouldn't take them! I was like whaaaaa? Are you CRAZY!? I think it just depends on the person that looks at your stuff and their taste, because I later took it back and had a different girl look at it and finally got some moolah! But poo on that girl who didn't want it! Nutjob! I saw her right after me buy some lady's big poofy shouldered bridesmaid dress. Seriously!?

I've heard of Plato's closet but I have never been. I really want to check it out!

I love being able to donate all my old clothes makes me feel so good inside knowing I am helping others out. There is a women's shelter near my house, so I take them there...I feel like I am helping the community when I go some where nearby to donate!! :-)

She's adorable. :) That's so funny b/c I call my dog's toys her "babies" too. Well, she doesn't have "babies" or stuffed animals right now, but when she did I would tell her "Go get your baby."

Honey Bee said...

I cleaned out my closet too, and I gave all my unwanted clothes to my maid for her daughter!

Jenn @ West Sac Honey said...

Oh the good closet clean out, I used to be a clothes hoarder thinking I'd wear it, but not anymore I donate alot of them to the women's shelters. Is that your little one with the underbite? =)
