The Bedroom
Assessing & Decluttering Your Wardrobe
Start by assessing your wardrobe. Pull out everything in your closet and lay it on your bed. Then, go through each piece & decide whether you are going to keep, donate or toss the item.
After you have decided what you will keep, organize your clothing by season, color, or occasion. Invest in clothing organization tools like multi-hold hangers & storage bins to keep your clothing organized while maintaining aesthetics.Â
Creating a relaxing sleep sanctuary
There is nothing worse than going to bed and seeing clothes on the floor or bed to be attended to before getting a good night’s rest.Â
Avoid the clutter by having one or two throw hampers in your bedroom and closet to toss items to be folded or cleaned. You can also avoid additional closet clutter by organizing out-of-season clothes to be stored under your bed.
Taming the bedside chaos
Choosing the correct bedside table for your space is essential to controlling clutter. Make sure you choose a nightstand with enough surface area for your essentials (charger, alarm clock, light, etc.). A nightstand with drawers hides away smaller items to minimize clutter.
Take your nightstand organization up a level with in-drawer organization to keep your bedside table from becoming a junk drawer. A drawer organizing system will ensure the first & last thing you see each day is a nice, aesthetically pleasing sight, keeping stress stays away!
The Kitchen
Streamlining your pantry
The pantry can be one of the most stress-inducing places in your home. Crumbs from old snacks, branded boxes stacked against each other & minimal visibility make it hard to cook meals & pack lunches.
Organize your dry goods in your pantry with see-through bins for easy access. This will minimize the need to push food around to find what you want.
You can also hide distractingly-branded snacks in bins. Doing so will keep you from being overstimulated & overwhelmed when you check your pantry.
Mastering kitchen cabinets and drawers
Picture this: you are cooking breakfast and need to find a spatula to flip your eggs into an omelet, but can’t find one anywhere! You push every other kitchen utensil around, digging for the spatula before your eggs burn. It isn’t until you take every utensil out of your drawer that you find your spatula, but now it is too late – your eggs have burned.Â
Using drawer organizers in your kitchen is game-changing! Instead of frantically searching for the utensil you need, you can quickly see what you need with the organizers.
You can also level up your kitchen with in-cabinet organizers. I love a multi-level spice cabinet organizer. This keeps all of your spices organized & saves you from rummaging through the cabinet.
Organizing the fridge
If you have been determined to eat all the fresh, healthy groceries you bought, only to have them sit in the fridge and spoil, you NEED TO invest in fridge organization. Fridge organizers display your produce for ease of access & are sure to boost motivation every time you open the doors.
You can also display the drinks that you bought to remind yourself to consume them before the expiration date. A drink organizer keeps your expensive beverages from getting pushed to the back of the fridge & looks OH-SO-COOL!
The Living Room
Decluttering entertainment centers
Keep your living room clean, organized & stylish with a great TV console as the centerpiece for your living room. Choosing a console that has plenty of storage space, preferably hidden by doors, helps you hide away the noise in your house.Â
Another functional statement piece for your living room is a vinyl record shelf. Display & style your records while maximizing storage for a super cozy vibe.
Creating storage solutions for books and magazines
Choosing a coffee table with storage & style keeps your living room clutter-free. It also allows you to use your reading material, like books and magazines, as statement pieces (and potential conversation starters for visitors). Â
Pairing a functional coffee table with tall bookcases will give you pleanty of space for all of the reading material & nick-nacks you want to display!
Managing remote controls and electronic clutter
Tech & cable management are EXTREMELY underrated! Hiding away remote controls & cables not only keep your home organized, but also reduce the ‘noise’ your brain picks up on when scanning your home.Â
Rather than digging in the cushions, a remote control organizer helps locate the reomte you need quickly. Choose an aesthetically-pleasing model & you have fun & functionality!
Nothing is more distracting than watching the TV with ugly wires sticking out. A cable management system that blends into your wall is a great option for renters who can’t hide wires directly in walls.
The Bathroom
Decluttering toiletries
With limited space in most bathrooms, a great opportunity to maximize storage space while also getting to display your products is through the use of shelving. Acrylic shelving is SUPER popular right now because it is functional and shows off your favorite products.Â
Another area to maximize your storage space is the vertical space under your sink. Layer your storage levels to use every inch available to you. This will keep your sink tops decluttered, giving your eyes less to register every time you enter the bathroom.Â
Designing a Vanity Station
A luxurious way to take your bathroom organization to the next level is by organizing your perfumes on a tray. Creating levels in your space while limiting the number of pieces on each level creatively organized your pieces into a spa-like accent.
Displaying your makeup and makeup tools is a great way to keep everything organized. It is also an opportunity to show off the beautiful designs some of your products have, adding to the decor in your bathroom.
Organizing cleaning supplies
If your broom closet is like the ‘Zomboomafoo’ closet every time you open the door, it may be time for you to consider buying a mop & broom wall mount. A wall mount organizer locks your cleaning tools within your closet where you can easily pick the tool you need.
You can also become overwhelmed when cleaning your home by carrying all the products you need from room to room. A carrier case is not only practical, but it is also an easy storage solution to place in your broom closet & take out whenever you need to use it.
