A place for everything and everything in its place. An old adage, which is as true today as it was previously. Most people live in houses that seem too small for their needs. Organization is the key to better living and more space. A few organization tips will help in the process.
Start by not watching the antique shows about how much the junk in your house will be worth in 40 years! You start with a room-by-room evaluation of what is necessary and what can be gotten rid of. If you have not used the object in the past year, chances are you are not. If you have not fit into the pair of pants or shirt in the past couple of years, chances are you are not going to any time soon. The most important aspect of decluttering and organization is having the ability to throw things out or give things away.
Many people depend on thrift shops to cloth their children, furnish their homes and stock their kitchen drawers. If you have extra, pay if forward and let others, less fortunate use the items you are not presently using. It is a great feeling and to add icing on the cake it is tax deductable.
After decluttering, the next step is to find the most efficient way to organize the closets, laundry room, garage, pantry, bedrooms, home office and bathroom. Often this includes premade storage units found at your local home improvement store or custom closet and organizers that make the best use of space.
Built in custom closets can take small closet space and make it effective, spacious and accessible. If you are storing shirts in baskets on the top shelf of your closet, chances are you are not going to wear them. If you kitchen appliances are stored behind several other appliances, you most likely are not using them. The more efficient, organized and accessible your home is, the more you will use the things you own.
A place for everything and everything in its place is a lifelong achievement. It takes work, constant work to get everything back where it belongs everyday. If you have children in the home, it is almost a hopeless task. However, do not give up; an orderly, clean home is more pleasant to live in. Even if your home is small, it can feel spacious when the junk is gone and the stuff is organized.
