Keeping your home junk free and organized is sometimes a challenge in this fast paced world that we live in. Here are 3 tips to keep your home looking great and help you find thing at a moments notice.

1. Taking Care of Business

Paying the bills is always a hassle and having a good system in place to ensure no bill is overlooked is essential. Here’s a simple system created with 4 folders so that you never miss paying another bill again. Simply slide the bill statements or make a note of bills due within each category and that’s all there is to it!

  • Folder number 1 “Bills Due This Week”

  • Folder number 2 “Bills Due Next Week”

  • Folder number 3 “Bills Due This Month”

  • Folder number 4 “Bills Paid”

Now you have a priority system so that you always know what bills must be paid each week and a folder that confirms the bills was paid and on what date. This is a sure fire way to stay on top of your finances and will save you loads of time and energy whilst avoiding clutter in your home.

2. Organizing Your Cupboards and Doubling Your Space

At times we are all tempted to throw our things into a cupboard, close the door and forget about them. What we end up with is a disorganized mess and lots of wasted time looking for things that we have lost. Why not try these ideas instead?

  • Buy some shoe racks instead of throwing your shoes in the bottom of the closet or cabinet

  • Buy a plastic bag holder instead of stuffing your drawer full of unused plastic bags, or simply place all plastic bags into a hanging plastic bag in the utility room or basement.

  • Roll your towels instead of folding them and see your space double

  • Use a decorative chest to store sheets, tea towels and table cloths

  • When storing hand bags, place one inside another creating organization and extra room

3. Keeping your Kitchen Free of Dishes

Do you seem to constantly have dishes cluttering the sink in between meals, making your kitchen look like a mess most of the time? A great way to overcome this dilemma is to use a little creativity and a little flair by doing the following:

  • Invest in a reasonable sized plastic tub that matches the colour theme of your kitchen – pop this onto your kitchen counter or on a bench next to the sink.

  • Place a container in the tub to hold any dirty cutlery – This will keep them together and organised so they don’t end up at the bottom of the tub.

  • Stack dirty dishes inside the tub until you are ready to wash them

Now you have an instantly well presented kitchen with a handy fashionable accessory that will store your dirty dishes neatly.
