New Year – Time to Organize

I am not a clean freak. I love a clean house but I hate to clean one. I am, however, a neat freak. If these people I live with would just put their crap back where it came from I’d be a much happier person!

I already hate cleaning. Is having to tidy up before I can clean up going to make me any more likely to do it? Um, no. But it’s hard, especially after Christmas, to find a place for everything and if it doesn’t have a place to go, chances are, it’ll stay where it’s at. And I can’t have that. I can’t.

Here are some ways I plan to organize in the new year to help us put things back where they belong.

I would give a million dollars to be able to put my Kitchen Aid in a cabinet and save my already minuscule counter space.

Yes. Yes. Yes. Why didn’t I think of that!

This year, somebody really must do something about the Hell-Hole (aka – The Garage)

Another one of those, Why didn’t I think of that?, moments. A tension rod to hold your stuff. Genius.

The Container Store
FEET – n. Objects used for finding Legos in the dark

Can you identify? Here’s the solution. Of course, you have to get those little Lego loving friends to pick them up for it to work. Good luck with that.

Do your linen closets look like this? Yep. Mine neither.

Let the organizing begin!

    I covered 2 jumbo pack diaper boxes with pretty fabric and I use those in the bottom of my linen closet for paper towels and toilet paper. I never thought about using those pantry add a selfs to keep linens nice and neat. A must do! I also like that she combined her meds, sunscreens and other household items usually left trying to find a home into this one closet. Thru organitzation anything is possible!!!
