Your Perfect State of Organization (Family Features)
Life gets busy and clutter has a way of sneaking up on everyone. But, whether you’re a single person living in an apartment or have a large family in a sprawling house, everyone can benefit from more organization. By simply thinking about storage differently and coming up with a smart organizational system that works for you, you’ll be on the way to creating a well-balanced, happier home.
Starting the process
If you’re just beginning, remember: baby steps. Focus on one small area or room - or even your junk drawer. Don’t get overwhelmed by the big picture. Be sure to finish the project you’ve begun. You’ll feel a sense of accomplishment and be encouraged to tackle subsequent rooms and projects.
Already started
Stuck midway through an organizational project and need some inspiration to finish? Don’t be afraid to utilize online resources. Thinking of your project as a minimakeover can help make it more exciting and less of a chore.
Already organized
If your home is already organized, you know that keeping clutter at bay is a full-time job. Be sure to keep a watchful eye on areas that naturally accumulate clutter, such as entryways and child play areas. If you do have children, get them involved in the organization process by teaching them where items belong and how to store them. By labeling storage bins, baskets or drawers, your kids will always be able to help your home stay organized and clean.
