This post has moved to A Place and a Time.

When I went to Coeur d’Alene last week, I wound up spending some of the money I had planned on gambling with (a birthday gift from my Dad – thanks Pop!) on a new hippy backpack purse that I came across at a roadside gift shop en route. The friend I was with suggested that I do a post about organizing purses, so I thought I’d take her up on it.
In this case, I was switching from a smaller, more traditional purse to this roomy backpack. The problem I was having with the smaller purse was that everything was so crowded in there it was hard to find what I was looking for. When I dumped all of the same stuff into the larger space, I had the same problem for a different reason: now everything was all jumbled up in the larger space and I still couldn’t find what I was looking for. So I decided to organize.
