I don’t know about you but I love organizing. There is something so therapeutic about clearing clutter. It gives me a sense of peace and clarity. With winter approaching, I know I’m about to be holed up in my house for the next couple of months. So I want it to be as serene and therapeutic as possible. I want to share with you some of my favorite tips and fun ways to organize around the house.
Here are a couple ideas to help you start organizing.
- Make a specific place for everything you own. Have all of your cords in one basket, your toiletries, pens, tools, even have a specific place for everything in that dreaded junk drawer.
- Use sticky pockets on the inside of your cabinets to hide and organize papers like bills that need to be paid, coupons, grocery lists, envelopes and stamps.
- Re purpose leftover used glass jars and containers for later use. Pickles, salsa, spaghetti sauce jars, large coffee cans. If they have labels you can remove them and then label them with their new purpose!
- Mason jars are also great for organizing dry goods in your kitchen.
- Watch some great shows about organizing. Have you seen The Marie Kondo Method on Netflix yet? I promise after watching this, it will shed a whole new light on clothing and what you truly need. Does it bring you joy?
- Podcast are another way to get inspired. Have you listened to An Uncluttered Life. Full of great tips.
