Spring Organizing

March 11, 2016 by Jessica Leave a Comment

We all know about “Spring Cleaning,”- but what about Spring Organizing?! Cleaning is no fun, but organizing can be (and a big sigh of relief)!

Warmer Season Change

Which means its time to put away the heavy sweaters,winter jackets and thick blankets for the season! Since the weather starts to warm up there is no need for us to have warm AND cold weather clothing and accessories out at the same time – together they just take up space. Swap them out for the warm(er) month items and pull out a few storage bins to sort and store the winter items. This is also a good time to purge any worn out, unused or unwanted items!

(As I have mentioned in past blog posts. Season change is a good time to do the clothes hanger purge trick! Pick a start day, in this case the first of the upcoming season, turn all your hangers backwards (so it is not easy for the hanger to just come off the bar). This takes only a minute! When you wear that item out, take it out and hang it normally. At the end season, any hanger that is still backwards, you know you don’t wear, purge it!)

 

Round up the Garage

This will be one of the more commonly used spaces in the warmer months. Whether you are just going in and out for gardening supplies or its the place you hang out; bottom line, things need to be in place. The garage is a place that is easy to sort and put into categories to easily declutter this space.

Clear the Fridge

Take a few minutes to go through the fridge and pantries to check for expired, or close to expiring foods. This is a good time to wipe everything down but throw out any old food or things that are not being eaten. Heck, our diets change from season to season, its time to clear out the old and in with the new fresh grocery list!

Get rid of piles

None of us enjoy the piles of mail that are laying on the counter or the last minute items that we threw into the garage and know we wouldn’t see for another season, and quite frankly the cold winter months makes us all a bit lazy. Take about 10 minutes in each room of your house to go through and throw out and old bills, throw out any ratty items, and sort items that need a proper home. Its time for the windows and doors to be open and people will be visiting, a clear organized home will be a sign of relief!

 

And of course we all know what spring cleaning is, clean up as you go! Take a few minutes in each area you organize to wipe a counter and dust a shelf 🙂 Happy Spring!

Decluttering on a Time Budget

November 13, 2015 by Jessica Leave a Comment

The number one reason why people seek professional organizers is because they have NO TIME!

No time to spend an entire day or even weekend cleaning out a
certain room or space.. well that is NO PROBLEM!

I know we are all short on time but do you have 5 minutes? 10? 20?
5 minutes from getting home to starting dinner?
10 minutes in between picking up and dropping off the kids?

That is perfect time to organize

Try these tasks that can be done in as little as 5 minutes.

DECLUTTER THE JUNK DRAWER
IMG_155810 minutes. This is not an oxymoron!

ORGANIZE (AND THROW OUT) MAIL
mail
If you have 5 minutes. Go through all that mail
that is piled up and throw out everything
that you do not NEED

DECLUTTER THE TUPPERWARE
up
If you have 5 minutes. Match up
all mis-matched lids and containers.
Dispose of ones that do not have matches

BRING ATTENTION TO THE PANTRY
p
Attend to the entire pantry, not just
what is up front. Dispose of any
expired or unwanted food items.

CLEAR OFF THE DESK
l
10 minutes. Clear it off so you can ACTUALLY see
the desk. Homework gets done. Bills get paid
here. Keep it clear and organized for  your
own reliability.


Organized spaces are the end goal here. Though you may only have a couple of minutes during the busy work week, organize what you can and re-visit it on the weekend when you have more than a couple of minutes!

No Fail Tupperware Organizers

September 27, 2015 by Jessica Leave a Comment

The most cluttered place in many homes are in the kitchen; the dreaded tupperware. There are so many pieces that we buy and collect over the years that when we need a lid to a bowl, it is a near impossible task!

Here are some dollar store solutions (there are many) to clear your clutter!

 Personally, this is one tool I use to organize my lids,Tupperware organization:

And if you don’t have a ton of Tupperware…

 :

Using wire shelves to stack and separate containers
(another tool I use)

Hanging shelves used for added space

These wire racks can be installed to the inside of cabinet doors to add space

KITCHEN TOOL: Plastic Lid Holder (White) (11 3/8

Any type of drawer divider can be used for added organization and separation

build a divider for tupperware lids:
Hopefully these pictures can give you some ideas to help tackle your kitchen Tupperware clutter from your drawers and cabinets! Be sure to go through all of your Tupperware as you are pulling it all out to dispose of the containers and lids that you are no longer using or do not have pairs.
