LET’S DO IT!

Professional organizers Macu Mateo of Reset Home and Emily Speed of The Organized Home Mindset share ways to organize your homes on their Facebook and Instagram pages. (Instagram: resethomenow; theorganizedhomemindset; Websites: resethomenow.com; theorganizedhomemindset.com)

TO GET YOU STARTED, MATEO OFFERED SOME TIPS:

1 Have a donation bin, and everything that is not sparking joy anymore for any reason (and it’s not trash) can happily go there. Pro tip: Once the bin is full, get it out of the house and to the donation site ASAP.

2 You should be able to see the floors in your home, including the corner of your closet. Pro tip: Use vertical space for storage.

3 Fold clothes and store them vertically in your drawers, like files in a filing cabinet. That way you see them all at once, and it will be easier to keep it neat.

4 Have only one or two (max!) laundry baskets. You will force yourself to fold and put away clean clothes before washing more dirty laundry.

5 Make it a habit to put things away before winding down or going to sleep. Tidy the kitchen, straighten pillows and throw blankets, etc. Your morning self will greatly appreciate it. Simplify your life with a happy reset!
