“I don’t know what I would’ve done without you.”
— Mrs. P. —
Busy and hectic lives oftentimes mean throw “it” in the cabinet wherever it lands. This results in hunting and gathering when “it” is needed. A small fix is the step-up shelf photographed here where we can clearly see what’s in the cabinet and grab and go when “it” is needed. That’s a time saver for the busy and hectic.
A few minutes spent on this drawer made all the difference in the world! That’s it! It took just 10 minutes to sort it and organize it. Using drawer inserts my client already had, see how much easier preparing a quick lunch will be! Easy! Simple! That’s living organized!
Tip of the Week
PURGE-FEST
The word purge indicates getting rid of something. Ho Hum. Before you get the Eeyore complex think of the word fest. It indicates fun, excitement and a party! A purge-fest is a time set aside to purge with an organizer and your party will come when the work is done!
My client recently purchased a new closet system. She emptied everything from her old closet into her bedroom, bathtub, shower stall… it was a hot mess! But together we went through each item one by one and purged, hung, placed, binned. We laughed, we sipped, we had a blast on purge-fest day. With all the stuff this huge job only took part of a day.
The result? One happy client who reports she LOVES her closet. Everything is reachable, color coded, neat and tidy. Now as she wears clothes she’d forgotten she had, she hangs the item inside out. In 6 months, if she hasn’t worn it again, she will purge it.
15 bags to charity and 5 more to the trash? Now that’s a purge. Watching her dance in her closet? That’s a fest!
