So now are you ready for a fresh new start this spring
season?
Let the organizing begin!
Tip # 1
First things first. Decide when, where, and what.
When will you begin to start organizing your home? Pick a date.
Where will you start first?
Pick a room in the house to start
with.
What is your goal? Focus
in on one goal.
Once you have decided when, where, and what, you’ll need to
start gathering helpful tools.
I recommend bringing
a collapsible basket, such as a fold down empty mesh laundry hamper, and two
large bags of different colors. These different colored bags are great for
sorting. Use the colored bag for items you wish to get rid of and items you can
donate can go into a clear bag.
To decide which items you should keep and which you should
get rid of ask yourself these questions:
·
I
· Have you used this item within the last 12
months?
·
Do you need it for legal or tax purposes?
·
If it’s broken, will you fix it? Is it worth
repairing?
Upload and share pictures of your sorting fun. Show us your
bags and bins filled with sorted items and the results. Before and after
pictures are the best and very popular these days!
Happy organizing and may the best organizer win!
