So I’ve been bit by the cleaning and organizing bug again. It struck shortly after Max’s birthday party when I had a serious balancing act going on in our pantry. I did a major cleaning and organizing overhaul in January and have done a fabulous job at keeping it up (if I say so myself) but you know how it is - drawers and closets grow untidy slowly and then all of a sudden it’s out of control.
So two bags of trash went out, followed with three more bags of clothes I no longer want, and then I found this little gem:
I stitched this back when I was learning how to embroider and I made it as a gift for someone that I don’t remember now. I wanted to keep it but realized 1) I have a bazillion white tank tops (am I the only one? Isn’t it impossible to have just one? Or seven?) and 2) I know I will never wear it. That’s why I kept it, thinking I would and yet almost three years later and nothing. So I’m going to give it away here.
It’s an Old Navy brand tank top, never been worn, hand-stitched, and a size medium. Don’t limit yourself if you’re not a medium, I’m sure you can think of someone to give it to. I want Miss Kitty to go to a loving home, but even if not I want it out of mine. So leave a comment telling me how many tank tops you own (because before my clothing purge back in January I easily had fifty, no. joke.) so I know I am not the only one who thinks you need a tank top for literally every occasion.

Oh dear, its worse than I thought actually. For this beautiful chance at some of you work I actually went and counted them bad boys….
AKA..I have 43. OMG. I had no idea there was that many and to top it off as least half have the OLD NAVY brand on them. LOL I can also honestly say that I wear at least 90% of them on a regular basis no matter what the weather! Great under a hoodie in the winter or by itself in the summer. The ultimate accessory!
LMAO!

Honestly? I have 6. And only 2 white ones.
But I don’t have a lot of clothes in general, although it seems I’m always looking for a tank top so maybe I need to invest in more!

I have 24. I counted them just for this giveaway but didn’t realize I had that many until just now. Hope I win!

I have 2. Seriously. 3, if you count the ratty black one that I wear under sheer things, but it’s way too icky to wear alone.

I went on a tank/cami binge on eBay last year (actually it was a lengthy bipolar shopping spree, but a goodly portion was on t/c’s) & I’m guessing I now have about 30 of them. All different colors, of course, though I don’t believe there’s a white tank in the bunch!

I have an entire drawer devoted to those handy little tanks…I have many different shapes, styles, sizes, and colours (in Canada that is how we spell it!). I don’t even want to count, because doing so may evoke a binging response in me as well…but I am guessing I have about 30-40. As I sit here writing and thinking about these necessary little articles of clothing I notice that I am wearing 2 at this very moment and this prompts me to think about this one style of tank which I own in 4 different colours…and then I think, was that really necessary? - Obviously at the moment I made the purchase it was!
Thanks for offering the random giveaway! Sorry about the digression.
