Your Home - Closets too!

Learn super easy home organization tips that will organize your home in no time.

If you're looking to organize your whole house or just one room, you've come to the right place.

Having an organized home is easy as following these four steps:

  1. Remember the purpose of the space you're organizing and organize for that purpose.
  2. Declutter - get rid of the extra stuff.
  3. Categorize what's left over.
  4. Organize it - create a space for everything.

K.I.S.S. - use these four steps for any organizing project to keep it all simple... Life itself is too complicated, don't over complicate getting organized!

Clearing out the clutter and getting an organized home can be hard for some, so as you work on clearing clutter, ask yourself these four simple questions:

  1. Do I want this?
  2. Do I need this?
  3. Do I use this?
  4. Do I love this?

If you have pack rat tendencies and answered yes to any of these questions, then ask yourself why you answered that way. Be brutally honest with yourself, or you will never break the clutter habit.

One way to stop pack rat tendencies is to find a non-pack rat to help you clear out the clutter. Have the non-pack rat in your life ask you the tough decluttering questions to help organize your home.
