'I’ll go through a re-org & then slowly it unravels as things get stuck here & there. Is there such a thing as a home organization plan that actually sticks? I’m feeling overwhelmed & buried under the piles of papers, toys, clothes, pictures, and crafts.'
. It’s not always about finding the time, but rather about finding the home organization plans that truly work. Here are my general rules of thumb.If you’ve been reading my column over the past year, you will see that this is my #1 answer to almost every home organizing question! A wise woman once said thatis delayed decision-making. So if you don’t know where something lives in your home, then a decision on where it belongs hasn’t been made and clutter begins to form.
That includes books, kitchenware, clothing, toys, and even paper. Once you truly know how much storage you have, assign a specific amount of space to each category of stuff. For example, you might dedicate two shelves in the garage or a corner in the basement for kitchen overflow items. In other words, you choose FIRST how much space to devote to specific categories and THEN what goes there. By doing so, you will feel in control of your space and your stuff.
