    Cabinet Organization Ideas

    This year I’m really buckling down on getting my home into a well-oiled, organized, as self-cleaning as possible machine.  Why this sudden momentum?  Even though my house is pretty organized, and fairly clean, there are some loose ends that keep nagging at me, and tying those up, as well as having routines and schedules in place, will allow me to really enjoy every moment with my sweet little boys.  I’ll go into more detail about my whole life, whole self 2018 project, but for now, here are some great ideas I discovered for organizing kitchen cabinets.

    As I mentioned in a previous post, I’ve realized that even though I’m organized, a lot of my containers and boxes don’t match, therefore my closets and cabinets don’t look particularly pretty.

  • Make Do with A Small Closet

    Make Do with A Small Closet

    Most of us dream of large walk in closets with plenty of hang up space, storage, places for our shoes and bags. In reality, we mostly live with small closets! Here’s a few tips to help you make do with that small closet and keep on loving that home you live in.
    How to Build a Closet to Give You More Storage.  She makes it look easy (and I love the closet organizer):
    Never doubt the power of a built in. Utilizing a storage space in between hang up can also help the floor clutter! It can define separate spaces for shirts, pants, and dresses and also give you some much needed drawers. 
    Get out all the unnecessary junk from the closet! If it’s not clothing related get it out! If you have spot to put jackets and shoes, don’t put shoes in your closet. If you can find a different place to put bags and belts, get them out too! Limit what you put in there.
    Most under the bed solutions are not suitable for every day use and are not the best at storing things either! This one may change your mind. Easy to get to, on wheels so you can pull it out, and drawers for wonderful storage solutions!
    Keep it clean. If you buy a new outfit, consider putting an older one you haven’t worn away. Keeping your closet less cluttered will make you love it more!
    Look for storage in unexpected places! A chest or a shelf under the stairs would be a great place for shoes. Especially if it’s close to the door. They are more likely to be put away and less dirt tracked around the house.

    Having a defined area to fold laundry is something I personally love! It’s also nice for storing things that you use constantly like laundry soap.
    Having a place to hang up your clothes as soon as you pull them out of they dryer is nice! Having a hanging area that doesn’t take up much space is even better!
    Keeping laundry storage clutter free is not easy. Baskets are a great idea to hide all the clutter but keep everything easily accessible.
