50 Organizing Tips You’ll Wish You Knew All Along

Organizing your home can be an overwhelming task. By adopting some simple practices, your home will be orderly in no time. Food waste and a messy refrigerator are among the most common issues in a household. Creating an “eat first” bin for leftover foods and foods with a short shelf life is a quick solution to this problem. Another option is to control what items you bring into your home. If you keep bringing clutter in, your home will remain in a cluttered state. Adding coat hooks to your entry way, freeing up floor space with a stackable washer and dryer and regularly clearing out your digital clutter as well are easy ways to make small organizational changes in your home.

Key Takeaways:

Take a picture of an item that brings back a happy memory for you and discard the item itself.
To keep everything organized and accessible, use ice cube trays to store paper clips, craft supplies, and jewelry.
