Laundry Made Easier

Friday, March 20th, 2009

For those of you that have big families and spend alot of time sorting socks and underclothing…there is a way to make it easier. The container store sells different colored mesh laundry bags. Each child can have their own bag in a different color. These bags go straight from washer to dryer. When your laundry is done, all you have to do is fold what is in the bag. No more sorting though multiple size for different kids.

Deep vs Accessible Storage

Sunday, March 15th, 2009

We all have things we need to store. So where should it go? Well for one..deep storage areas such as attics and basements should be used to things that are rarely used or memory items. Places like garages and storage closets should be used to items that are used and you need to get to. Everyone has different space, so its important to idenify what works for you.

Tuesday, March 10th, 2009

So many times we feel guilty because we spend money on something that we dont like or have a use for. Instead of keeping it…give it to a friend.

A few more thoughts…

Tuesday, March 10th, 2009

Before you start to think about tackling the paper think about what is important to you and what is essential that you keep… and then toss the rest. Sometimes when you get rid of the excess baggage you feel relieved and focused so you can tackle other projects, such as the closet ;).

Managing the clutter

Tuesday, March 10th, 2009

Each day when I work with clients one of their biggest questions is: how do I keep the paper under control? My answer is: don’t let the piles begin, process or file the papers every day, and 70% to 80% of all papers should be tossed immediately. When paper piles up too much it stops the flow of work and life.
