Organizing Tips for
saving space and time
September 2006
-
S
ave some time
during the day for yourself and your family. Actually make
an appointment or add it to your to-do list.
-
P
ut like items together in
your cabinets making them easier to find quickly put away.
-
A
few minutes everyday should be spent putting
things away at your office and at home. This will save you
from hours of clearing away the clutter.
-
C lear out over stuffed
drawers, keeping only the items that you are using. Start
with one drawer at a time and set the timer.
-
E
liminate email back log by sorting for just ten
minutes everyday. Once you have caught up, continue to
spend ten minutes a day sorting and deleting.
and
-
T
ackle large organizing projects in segments- one room, one
closet, one drawer at a time.
-
I
nitiate a household paper purge once a week. The
kids can clean out their backpacks and you can clear off the
counter tops and paper piles.
-
M
inimize the appliances and utensils on the
kitchen counter tops to free up work space and to be clutter
free.
-
E
liminate the stacks of magazines and newspapers
“to be read” by pulling the most interesting articles and
keeping them in a folder. Keep the most current two issues
of a publication and recycle the rest.
I can help you get started!
