One of the first things I've been tackling in effort to take care of myself is organization.
How does organization play into nurturing yourself?
Easy...the more organized you are, the less stress you have.
I'm ALL about de-stressing these days.
I still have some work to do with organizing my house but it is coming along.
Hey, organizing takes time you know but it is time well spent I assure you!
If you missed my first post on organization, you can read up on it here.
Today I'm sharing some quick and easy tools
you can use to tame the clutter crazies.
~ Stacks ~
Have a cluttered coffee table?
Make your stacks intentional.
Corral those magazines and books, stack them high and add a nice little topper like flowers or a candle.
~ Trays ~
Have a bunch of loose items in your bathroom or on your dresser?
Tidy them up by combining them all on a pretty tray.
It will look like an artful arrangement rather than a bunch of strewn items.
~ Baskets ~
Baskets offer not only aesthetically appealing storage but they can help you clean up in a jiffy.
Company coming over?
Just toss it all in a basket and you're good to go.
~ Bowls ~
Bowls can work much the same as baskets,
and there are a ton of options no matter what your style.
Containers can be so much fun to shop for. Don't be overwhelmed
by the variety out there. You can stick to something neutral to play it safe or
you can get a little funky. I adore the urn used for the kitchen utensils above.
Its traditional in nature and style but funky in the way that it is being used...t
he best of both worlds!
Use you imagination and have fun...
and watch the clutter virtually disappear :)
*Many of the ideas for this post came from here.
