Getting Organized

Keeping your home organized.

If most of you are like me, organizing and keeping things organized around the house is an on-going and never ending battle.

Life is busy, and we don’t always spend that extra few seconds or minute it would take to keep things as orderly as we would like.

And if you ARE anything like me, not taking that extra time ends up causing even more unnecessary frustration. It’s a vicious circle isnt it?

So one of my goals for 2019 is to keep my home and the things in it(this includes my coupons!!!!) much more organized and training myself and my family to keep it that way!!!

So here are a few ways I intend to accomplish this goal:

1)Everything must have a home

2)Put your bills up immediately

3)If you haven’t used it in 6 months, get rid of it (unless it’s a seasonal item)

4)Keep on top of your paperwork

5)After you grocery shop, put everything away

6)Don’t bring stuff into the house (or garage) you don’t need

7)Put everything up wherever it makes the most sense

8)Use tubs and baskets to organize

Work as a family to keep your place organized

9)Create a routine

10)Have an entry way or organized space at your front door for keys, wallets, phones, etc.

11)Use one piece of furniture for two uses (a good example is a mirror that opens up to store jewelry).

I am also posting a chart of room by room organizing that I think will be very helpful on my(your)quest.

Let’s hear some ways you keep your home or rooms organized. I’d love to get some more ideas from our amazing members!!!!
