1/1/2024 0 Comments Small closet shelf ideas![]() Then in a few months, get out the items that had been put away and put away a different selection of items.Without proper shelving, all of the stuff just ends up piling high on top of each other until everything gets tangled together into one unorganized mess where nothing ever sees the light of day! Try to come up with outfits using only the clothes that are still in your closet! You could also just decide to put away a certain percentage of your clothing for a few months to make some extra space. I rotated my clothing according to what size fit currently. During the 4-5 years that I was either pregnant or nursing, my size needs changed every few months. Or if you are in a season of life where your size changes frequently, you could rotate your clothing by size. Keep only warm weather clothes out in the summer and cool weather clothes out in the winter. If you live in an area that experiences both warmer and cooler weather, you can rotate clothes by season. If you have gone through and decluttered your clothes and your closet still feels packed, consider rotating your clothes. And that’s okay! (I feel the same way about throw pillows, so I get it!) Some people just really, really like clothes and have a lot of them. If the closet is decluttered and is still overflowing, consider rotating clothes. ![]() If you only apply one of these closet organization ideas in your own house, make it this one! 2. (Learn more about the benefits of the “Less is more” philosophy here.) No more sorting through all of the “meh” clothes to get to the ones that fit well and make me feel confident when I wear them! Less truly is more. I’ve also realized that getting ready in the morning is so much easier when all of the clothes in my closet are ones that I actually love to wear. So I try to be really brutal in this part of the process! The fewer items we have, the easier it will be to keep our closet organized. Then move on to sweaters, then blouses, then shoes, etc. Decide which pants to keep and which ones you can donate or sell. Try taking out everything in the same category, sorting through it, and then moving on to the next category.įor example, you could start by taking out all of your pants. If you have a ton of clothes, it may just not be practical to take everything out at once. We can then make smarter decisions about what to keep and what to get rid of. Taking everything out also allows us to see exactly what we have. With clothing, I think it’s helpful to take everything out of the closet so you can start with a blank slate. If we really want to get organized and stay organized long-term, then we have to get rid of the stuff we no longer use or love. Hiding everything we own in pretty bins is not organization. My biggest, ultimate, #1 tip for organizing just about anything is DECLUTTER LIKE CRAZY!!! Declutter clothes that you don’t love or wear often. My hope is that no matter what size space you have, you will be able to find several closet organization ideas in this list that work for you.

1/1/2024 0 Comments Conarium game story![]() It’s not a game that’s deep outside of players walking while exploring, running from a few threats out there, and even solving puzzles as needed by the game. While mechanics could be discussed, there’s honestly not much to discuss, which could leave players scratching their heads. While you would expect the voice acting to be solid, it’s honestly not quite that great, but the game’s story and plot serve a delightful enjoy a solid game. While these methods seem overused and constantly gone-to-narrative they work rather well for this dark and cryptic story. In order to find the adventure feasible, much of the game’s story is told through letters, diary entries, audio recordings, and even flashbacks that come in the form of surrealistic visions. The Upuaut base is something unique, one that seems to draw deeply from within the games core settings, and the underlying mechanics players will need to adapt to. In the game you’ll find yourself searching for clues about what happened to your colleagues, yourself, and the mysterious large caverns, ancient ruins, and last-but-not-least piecing it all together in a setting that will unsettle fans. Just as expected, our protagonist himself in Conarium, is a member of an Antarctic expedition who has woken up to find his groups base of operations deserted and all his memory of the events wiped clean. Lovecraft’s works, the game does express itself quite contently. Like many games that try to become adaptions of H.P. Lovecraft himself, there’s no doubt that Conarium has adapted from the famed book At the Mountain of Madness, but stumbles upon doing some perfectly. With this newest game drawing inspiration from H.P. Lovecraft is an author who has managed to surpass his time through his storytelling methods, settings, and approach to dark Gothic horror settings. In their game Conarium, fans can rest assured that they took inspiration from H.P. When Zeotrop Interactive stumbled upon their own treasure trove of gold. Short when it comes to entire duration of the game ![]() +Extremely immersive settings and storytelling Lovecraft, but how well does it deliver on this promise? Let’s find out. Conarium promises to deliver one of the most immersive experiences yet within the realms of H.P. 1/1/2024 0 Comments Memories of a geisha film![]() The romantic climax to Memoirs offers us an interesting point of comparison of the Western and Eastern aesthetic of love. I've seen similar theatrics at the famed Kaburenjo theatre in Gion during the cherry-blossom Miyako Odori performance season in Kyoto admittedly in the 21st century. When Chiyo, now the grown geisha Sayuri, performs a signature dance in public for all her potential patrons, the figure of her teetering on two-foot clogs in a stylised snow-storm is rather over the top and, dare one say it, reminiscent of other (Chinese) spectaculars in which Zhang has made her name (for example The House of Flying Daggers).īut on the other hand, the preceding group dance of geisha, which I've seen criticized for its gaudiness (more like a striptease!) does not seem so far from the truth. Other attempts at spectacle are less successful. The first time it leads nowhere, and is just a temporary respite, but when the same image is repeated at the very end, her dream has become a reality, and the image, like her heart, is rejuvenated and resonant. This timeless image is emblematic of her attempt to escape from her prison-like life as a servant-girl. Then there is the exhilarated Chiyo, running through the tunnel of orange torii gates at Fushimi-Inari Shrine in southern Kyoto. ![]() In one scene, the desperate little Chiyo, falling from a roof in an attempt to escape her kidnappers', turns, with a deft bit of editing, into the sliding abacus beads that have just calculated her ensuing bill to the doctor, a bill that indebts her further to the okiya (boarding house for geisha) that holds her in thrall. ![]() (This is very much what Peter Greenaway bade us do with his Chinese actress Vivian Wu in the 1996 reworking of the Japanese literary classic The Pillow Book.)Īnd there are indeed moments of artistry in Memoirs that aspire to that elusive kind of cinematic magic that transcends questions of authenticity. We are asked to view the film as a fable, as Marshall said at an interview in Tokyo in other words, to accept it as a work of art rather than a biopic. Given that the provenance of the source material itself is in dispute, the fact that director Rob Marshall chose to cast three high-profile Chinese actresses in the lead roles (demure Zhang Ziyi, gracious Michelle Yeoh and a vamped-up Gong Li) means that this film cannot claim to be a definitive take on the Willow World. This film is known in Japan as Sayuri, the work name of the eponymous geisha whose memoirs are purportedly memorialised in this Hollywood retelling.Īrthur Golden's original work is controversial: beloved by millions of Western readers for its portrayal of a hidden world, it was disowned by the geisha, Iwasaki Mineko, whose life story was part of its inspiration. ![]() Moderators reserve the right to make decisions deemed to be in the best interest of the subreddit.
