Finding your starting point with home organization can feel overwhelming, but breaking it down into manageable steps makes the process much easier. Here are 5 ways to help you get started: 1. Start Small ✨ Choose one drawer, cabinet, or closet to begin with instead of tackling an entire room or house. This will give you a sense of accomplishment and motivation to keep going. 2. Identify Clutter Hotspots✨ Look around and identify the areas that tend to collect the most clutter. It could be your kitchen counter, entryway, or home office desk. Start by organizing these high-traffic areas where clutter builds up quickly. 3. Set Clear Goals✨ Decide what you want to achieve with your organization. Is it to free up space, make it easier to find things, or simply make the space more visually appealing? Having clear goals will help you stay focused. 4. Declutter First✨ Before jumping into organizing, declutter. Sort items into categories—keep, donate, toss, or recycle. Removing unnecessary items first makes organizing more straightforward and efficient. 5. Use the “One Room at a Time” Rule✨ If organizing multiple spaces feels overwhelming, focus on one room at a time. Breaking it down this way gives you the chance to fully transform one space before moving on to the next, keeping the process manageable and rewarding. #dwellingsimple #homeorganization #cleartheclutter #clean #simple #organization

Not only does it make your space more functional, but it also helps you breathe easier and keep your environment serene. Plus, here’s a kicker: The average person spends up to 55 minutes a week hunting down misplaced items.

Creating a dedicated homework drawer might seem like a small detail, but it can make a world of difference for your kids’ productivity and your home organization. Here’s why: 1. Simplifies Homework Time: Imagine your child’s face lighting up when they don’t have to hunt down a single pencil or scrounge for that elusive eraser. A homework drawer keeps all supplies in one place, making it easier for kids to dive into their work without distractions. 2. Reduces Stress: A designated spot for homework supplies means fewer frantic searches for materials, which cuts down on stress for both kids and parents. Plus, it helps establish a routine, making homework time more efficient and less of a hassle. 3. Encourages Independence: With everything they need right at their fingertips, kids can take more responsibility for their homework setup. It’s a small step towards building good organizational habits and a sense of ownership over their work. We opted for a homework drawer right by our dining table because it’s a prime spot for keeping an eye on things while multitasking. Plus, it’s conveniently located near where everyone gathers, making it easy to supervise or help out while you’re preparing dinner or catching up on family news. It’s like having a mini command center for all things homework-related! So, here’s to a less chaotic homework time and a more organized home—one drawer at a time! ✏️📚✨ #HomeworkHack #OrganizedHome #FamilyTime

🍂 September’s here, and it's time for a little home TLC! 🏠✨ 1️⃣ Swap your summer threads for cozy fall vibes.

Clean those gutters, fix that squeaky door, and prep your HVAC for the chill. Your future self will thank you! 🛠️🍂 3️⃣ Tame the school year chaos. Organize schedules, set up a spot for school projects, and keep those after-school routines smooth. Because who doesn’t love a little less stress and a lot more fun? 📚🎨 #SeptemberToDos #HomeOrganization #FallReady #dwellingsimple

Is it a crazy time getting out the door with your kids in the morning for school?! You’re not alone 😉 BUT having this mudroom space finally organized has been amazing for everyone’s sanity. Shoes ✔️ Backpack ✔️ Everything gets put there the night before or stored there on the way in the house. Game changer ✨ #dwellingsimple #schoolorganization #mudroomorganization #cleartheclutter #mindfulliving #homeorganization

Organizing your house can actually save you some serious cash, and here’s how: When everything has its place, you’re not constantly buying duplicates of that thingamajig you swore you didn’t already own. And let’s not even talk about the expired food you forget you had hiding in the pantry—it’s like finding a treasure chest, but instead of gold, it's just a pile of spoiled spaghetti sauce. Plus, when your house is in order, you’re less likely to splurge on storage solutions that end up being storage problems because, surprise, you don’t really need that extra shelf. Also, staying organized means less stress, and less stress equals fewer “treat yourself” shopping sprees just to cope with the clutter. So, yes, getting organized is like giving your wallet a high-five, and who doesn’t love a good high-five? * * * * * #homeorganization #homeorganizationtips #getorganized #decluttermylife #organizedliving #simplifyyourlife #helpmeorganize #minimize #professionalorganizer #homeorganizationideas #homeorganizationblog

An honest look at my bedside table 🤪 Did you know an organized bedside table can positively impact mental health and help set a productive tone for the day. Here are some thoughts as I ‘spring’ clean… 1. **Reduced Stress**: Clutter can lead to increased stress and anxiety. An organized bedside table can create a calming environment, helping to reduce stress levels before bedtime and upon waking. 2. **Improved Sleep**: A tidy bedside area can contribute to better sleep quality. For example, keeping electronic devices away from the bedside table can minimize sleep disturbances related to blue light exposure. 3. **Efficient Start**: Starting the day with an organized space can enhance productivity. Knowing where essentials like your gratitude journal, or medications are located can streamline your morning routine. 4. **Mindfulness and Clarity**: An organized bedside table promotes mindfulness. Having a clear space can encourage a more intentional and focused approach to both winding down at night and beginning the day. 5. **Positive Habits**: An orderly space can reinforce good habits. Keeping a gratitude journal or a book within reach might encourage regular use, contributing to improved mental well-being. I plan on making these shifts little by little as school starts back up and I’m up early with the kids. What’s important to you to keep at your bedside? #dwellingsimple #homeorganization #bedroomorganization #cleartheclutter

Creating a morning routine spot for the kiddos in the bathroom can make a world of difference! By using small bins within drawers and larger containers, you can create intentional zones for all their essentials—like toothbrushes, hairbrushes, and skincare. This way, everything they need is in one spot, making getting ready simple and efficient. No more scrambling to find things in the morning—just grab, go, and start the day on the right foot! * * * * * #homeorganization #homeorganizationtips #getorganized #decluttermylife #organizedliving #simplifyyourlife #helpmeorganize #minimize #professionalorganizer #homeorganizationideas #homeorganizationblog

From cluttered chaos to a well-organized haven—this pantry transformation proves that organization doesn't have to come with a hefty price tag. By repurposing thrifted baskets and jars, we created a space that's not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing. The key is to keep it simple and smart, making use of what you already have or can find second-hand. A little creativity goes a long way in achieving an organized, beautiful pantry that works for your lifestyle! When thrifting for home organization products, here are a few key things to look for: Baskets and Bins: Look for sturdy baskets or bins in various sizes. They’re perfect for grouping similar items together and adding a cohesive look to your space. Woven baskets, in particular, can add a natural, rustic touch to your decor. Glass Jars and Containers: Seek out glass jars with lids for storing dry goods. They’re not only functional for keeping food fresh but also visually appealing when displayed on open shelves. Wooden Crates: Vintage wooden crates can be repurposed as shelves or storage containers. Their rustic charm adds character while providing practical storage solutions. Trays and Dividers: Trays and drawer dividers are great for organizing small items or keeping things separated. They help create a neat, clutter-free look. Labels and Tags: If you find baskets or jars with built-in label holders, grab them! If not, you can easily create your own labels or tags for a personalized and organized touch. Durability: Ensure that the items you choose are in good condition, especially if they’ll be holding heavier items. Check for any signs of wear and tear that might compromise their usefulness. * * * * * #homeorganization #homeorganizationtips #getorganized #decluttermylife #organizedliving #simplifyyourlife #helpmeorganize #minimize #professionalorganizer #pantryorganization

As we gear up for back-to-school season, it's the perfect time to reassess how our home serves us. 📚✨ Francine Jay’s insight, “Your home is living space, not storage space,” is a powerful reminder that our homes should be sanctuaries that support our well-being, not just places to stash stuff. 🏠 By embracing simplified home rhythms and thoughtful organization, we create environments that foster clarity and calm, making it easier to juggle new schedules and responsibilities. Imagine walking into a space where everything you need is right where it should be, reducing stress and boosting productivity. 🌟 Decluttering and organizing now can set the stage for a more focused and less frantic school year.

This quote beautifully encapsulates the essence of minimalism. It isn't merely about decluttering our homes or cutting down on possessions; it's about creating space—both physically and mentally—for the things that truly enrich our lives. When we remove the excess, we can better appreciate and focus on what brings us joy, whether it's spending time with loved ones, pursuing passions, or simply enjoying a moment of peace. Embracing minimalism means prioritizing quality over quantity and valuing experiences and relationships over material items. It’s about designing a life that reflects our values and aspirations, allowing us to live more intentionally and meaningfully. ✨

We all get to this point... but how do recognize it to get out of it?! Here's how to know you need an organizational reset: 🔴 Constantly Misplacing Items: If you often find yourself unable to locate everyday items like keys, important documents, or household tools, it may be time for a home organization reset. Constant searching can be a sign that your current system isn't working and needs rethinking. 🔴 Overwhelmed by Clutter: When clutter starts to accumulate on countertops, tables, and other surfaces, it can be overwhelming and stressful. If your space feels cramped or chaotic, it's a clear indication that your home organization needs an overhaul to restore order and create a more functional living environment. 🔴 Difficulty Managing Daily Tasks: Struggling to keep up with daily chores, appointments, or meal planning can be a sign that your home is disorganized. A well-organized home should support your routines and make it easier to manage daily responsibilities without added stress.

Let’s think about this quote from the wise words of Mother Teresa in the context of childhood and toys… “The more you have, the more you are occupied, the less you give. But the less you have, the more free you are.” Imagine a world where your child’s creativity isn’t buried beneath a mountain of toys. When we simplify, we unlock a treasure trove of imagination. Each toy becomes a portal to a new adventure, each space a canvas for wild and wonderful dreams. Home organization isn’t just about neatness; it’s about fostering a sanctuary where young minds can roam free. As clutter diminishes, focus and freedom flourish. Embrace the beauty of less, and watch as your child’s imagination soars to new heights. It’s not about having more; it’s about making room for what truly matters. Simplifying isn’t just a choice—it’s a gift of boundless creativity for the ones we love most.

I am taking back over my pantry from the family. 👏🏻 I have looked forward to this, knowing that once I was done teaching, I could get back in there and refresh everything… so that’s exactly what I did this past weekend. And let me tell ya… I didn’t use any new bins, jars or baskets. I just used what I had but cleaning things out, wiping down the shelving made such a big difference, both in the pantry and in my brain. Pick a small space in your home and do the same thing!

Recent research has shown just how much keeping your home organized can boost your productivity and mental well-being. A study published in the Journal of Neuroscience found that having too much stuff around can overwhelm your brain and make it harder to focus. On the flip side, having an organized space can help you concentrate and get more done. The research from UCLA’s Center on Everyday Lives of Families (CELF) also highlighted how a cluttered home can lead to higher stress levels, particularly for moms. This really emphasizes the importance of keeping things tidy for your mental health and overall happiness. To help you fight the negative effects of clutter, here are a few simple steps you can take: 1. Declutter Regularly: Take some time to go through your stuff regularly. Start with a small area, like a closet or a desk, and work your way through each room. Donate or get rid of things that you no longer need or enjoy. 2. Set Up Organizational Systems: Invest in some storage solutions, like bins, baskets, and shelves, to keep things organized. Give everything a specific place and label your storage containers to make finding things easier. 3. Make Daily Habits: Try to tidy up a bit every day to keep your home organized. Spend just a few minutes putting things back where they belong to stop clutter from piling up. 4. Keep Clutter in Check: Be mindful of what you bring into your home and try to avoid buying things you don’t really need. Before getting something new, think about whether you have space for it and if you truly need it. Following a “one in, one out” rule can stop clutter from building up. 5. Get Some Help: If you’re feeling overwhelmed by clutter, don’t hesitate to ask for support from family, friends, or professional organizers (like us!). Having someone to help can give you the motivation and accountability to tackle the mess and create a more organized living space. By taking these steps to declutter and organize your home, you can create a space that helps you stay focused, be more productive, and feel happier overall. ✨

Creating a schedule for home organization is like carving out space for peace amidst life’s chaos. 👉🏻 Start by identifying pockets of time in your week—whether it’s early mornings before the hustle begins or evenings after winding down. 👉🏻 Prioritize this time as you would any other appointment; after all, a clutter-free environment nurtures a clutter-free mind. 👉🏻 Allocate specific tasks to each session, be it decluttering a closet or organizing paperwork. Not only does this practice cultivate a sense of control and efficiency, but it also lays the foundation for a peaceful living space, where everything has its place. ✨ #dwellingsimple #homeorganization #cleartheclutter #getorganized #simpleorganizing

Well that hits home. ✌🏻 It’s okay to say no to bringing in more “stuff” for a season… actually once you get started clearing out, you might never want to clutter it up again. ❓Where will you start??

May is the perfect time to embrace organization in every corner of life! As the weather warms, it's not just about tidying indoors but also extending that sense of order to our outdoor spaces. Whether it's decluttering the patio, arranging potted plants, or setting up a cozy outdoor workspace, May brings an opportunity to harmonize our living environments. Amidst the organization frenzy, there's also the excitement of travel plans brewing. Whether it's a weekend getaway or a long-awaited vacation, having a well-organized home office becomes paramount. It ensures a seamless transition from work mode to relaxation, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the adventure ahead. With a clear desk and neatly organized files, we can jet off knowing that our home base is in perfect order. And upon returning, we're greeted not just by the familiar comforts of home but also by the satisfaction of a well-kept space, indoors and out. May is the month where organization meets anticipation, setting the stage for a summer filled with both productivity and adventure. What else do you plan to organize this month?! ✨
