It's always a great idea to get organized, but since it's actually "organize your home day" let's really put in the effort. Here's a great idea to get you started:


Find some old cabinets (maybe someone in your neighborhood is remodeling and disgarding them, check a yard sale, look online, scan the pennysaver/thrifty nickel/Habitat for Humanity Store) and install them in your garage, shed, workshop or craft room - file cabinets work fine too. This helps organize the tools and miscellaneous supplies that we all have and keeps it from looking cluttered.

The trick is to make sure everything gets put back each time you use it (that's a whole other blog!) If you're feeling really ambitious, make dividers for each drawer or cabinet and label them. You can always make this a 'family' project and deligate these little details.

Who knows? Today the garage...tomorrow the kitchen! Or next year, it's cool.

I am so into getting rid of clutter. I think if you hold onto too much stuff, you're hoarding, give it away to someone who may need it or who can use it. Amen to clearing away clutter!!
