Home Organization 101

Happy Friday, everyone! Today I am sharing some tips to keep your home organized. I am a firm believer that physical clutter causes mental clutter and that is why it is so important to invest in products that will keep your day to day clear of any messes.

I have two kiddos, so believe me I know how messy the house can get, especially in the summertime. However, implementing simple organization tactics makes cleaning up easier than ever! Below are three of my favorite simple ways to tidy up quickly and efficiently.

1. Baskets – These are my favorite for storing any and all items! I have wicker baskets in the laundry room for supplies, bins in the kids’ rooms to hold their toys, and decorative crates in my entryway for boots and shoes. Honestly, they are all over my house!
2. Tupperware – The OXO Pop Lid Containers are a must for the pantry! All of our snacks are easily organized in clear containers. These canisters make it so easy to see exactly how much food is left so I know what to get on my grocery runs. Plus, the food stays fresher for longer! All in all, it’s a win-win. For leftovers and other refrigerated items, I use the Rubbermaid lid-locking containers.
3. Stickers or labels – My BFF! Labeling keeps everything in place where it should be. It’s as simple as writing out what certain ingredients are so you don’t mix them with others. Not to mention, labeling makes putting things back where you got them so effortless.

I love when the house is tidied up and clean. I feel like I can take on all of my daily tasks when my life is decluttered. While I am not always organized (who is?), I hope these three tips will help. And if you’re looking to organize your home, I’ve linked some products below that will get you going in the right direction!
