Organizing Tips

  • Get rid of things that don’t work! Don’t hang onto items thinking you’re going to get them fixed if it’s never going to happen.
  • Take children with you when you go to donate unused items. This helps them learn to part with things.
  • Take on your most difficult work when your energy is at its peak. This will help you focus and more easily complete tasks with less distraction.
  • Consider floor-to-ceiling possibilities for shelving, racks, stackable drawers, hooks, and pegboards.
  • Most people wear 20% of their wardrobe 80% of the time. Those seldom worn clothes take up room. If you have not worn it in a year, you never will. Throw it away, donate it, or sell it. Buy one new item you really love.
  • In the kitchen, things that work together should be stored together. Feel the flow of activity in your kitchen. Place glasses near the sink or the refrigerator. Put snacks in a convenient drawer or cupboard.
