I hate packing, but I actually love it.
I like the challenge of getting as much stuff into a single box, which is important if you are about to store your items in a limited space. Basically, I mix soft goods with hard goods and breakables.
So for example, a box with 4 vases is packed with a sheet set and pillowcases. My 4 pencil lamps are packed with throw pillows. Dishes are packed with washcloths and towels... Stuff like that. As I got to the fine crystal last night, I had to choose between t-shirts and the mail drawer. I ended up packing my mail up with my crystal.. everything is nice and cushy!.
Because we are using limited storage, I am also keeping the box size as uniform as possible to make sure the items are packed tightly. You can see the boxes piling up above.
I have a few more days of hard work to move out of this house and into my in-laws (pray for me) until our house is ready.
My life really does change fast and often, doesn't it?
