Home OrganizationThe Home Organization Plan That Saved Me......You can Use It To.
If you're like me before I discovered this home organization plan, you're probably thinking...
"My home can never be organized." Or...
..."I've tried to organize my home but it never stays organized."
Well, let me tell you this - your home can be organized and stay organized. And I'm going to show you the home organization plan that saved me from my disorganized home.
Before we start let me confess that this plan will take time to create and implement, but once you're done with the initial work your housecleaning will be a breeze.
Now let's get started...
Step 1: Make note of your messy areas on paper.
Get a note book or loose pages. On the top of the first page write the name of the room you want organized like, 'Kitchen' or 'Bathroom'.
Below the room name draw two lines down the middle of the page. Now you have three columns.
Name the first column header as 'Messy Spots' or 'Problem Spots'. The second column can be named 'Solutions'.
You can name the third column 'Time'.
Step 2: Evaluate the room.
Look at the room that you want to start with. Write down all your problem areas you want organized in the 'Messy Spot/Problem Spots' column.
Once you've come up with your list it's time for the next step.
Step 3: Write down your organization solutions in column two.
Try your best to come up with a solution for each problem spot listed in the first column. Have fun with this and be creative.
Step 4: Time
In the time column write the amount of time you think each task will take.
Step 5: Use your house cleaning schedule
Using your house cleaning schedule write down when you will be able to do each task. If you don't have a house cleaning schedule yet, you can create your own using the guide here.
Step 6: Just do it
When it's time to tackle a problem area don't put it off. Just do it! Otherwise, it will still be there tomorrow. I'm sure you don't want that.
Step 7: Maintenance
Once you've completed a room, take a few minutes everyday or every other day to neaten up. Make sure that everything is in its place, the way you want it to be. Especially with closets, you have to straighten things up to avoid clutter. It may be easier also to store winter items, such as Ugg boots, somewhere else until the season is right.
Step 8: Repeat
Finally, follow the above procedure with other rooms in your home. Remember, home organization is possible and sustainable. All you need to do is be consistent and work your plan.
