I want to help you understand the purpose, and many benefits, of generating your organizing ideas at home, but I notice that many people are not even motivated to think about this idea.
If you grew up in a messy home, you may have no clue about how many things can be done in a much easier manner than in the way you are doing them.
A simple thing like getting ready in the morning. Be it to go to work, to get to your first class, or find the clothes you want to wear.
No matter what you do in life, you have to "chop wood, carry water", or else someone else has to do it for you. Which can get expensive.
If your home organizing ideas are ignored, or non-existent, perhaps I can encourage your interest a little.
The Benefits
- finding your clothes when you need them
- having clean clothes when you need them
- finding your vital documents when you need them
- finding food when you need it
- requiring less time to get going every day
- experiencing less stress, every day
All kinds of people are messy and disorganized. Men, women, small apartment livers, large home dwellers. Anyone. They, you, just don't have a plan.
Just as an example, start with your laundry. My recommendation is one of those double side-by-side laundry bins that have one side for lights and one side for darks. When it's time to go to the laundry room or to YOUR laundry room, you just grab it and it is already organized. So simple! Keep a small bottle of bleach in the white/light side to use some when you need it.
Your Closet Organizer Ideas
Make your closet easier to use. Sort your blouses/shirts/ and other shorter hanging garments by color. Separate your work and casual clothes if you prefer. Hang your formal outfits in the back in clothes bags.
If you have room in your closet, hang a shoe shelf - a canvas stack of cubes in which you put your shoes. This keeps them off the floor. So easy. You can also use these for purses, gloves, anything that fits.
Just with those two organizing ideas, can you start to see the benefit of sorting your stuff?
Growing Out Of Your Things
If you have not worn an item (excluding formal outfits) for a year, you have grown out of it. You may not have grown or shrunk in size, but you have grown out of it, interest wise. Make sure these items are laundered, and just fold them into a bag and take them to your local thrift store. Do not put this off.
If you experience major distress over this, then you have a different type of problem. It is not a clutter problem, but a hoarding problem. You may need help from someone who understands your inability to get rid of stuff, who will help you let stuff go, and feel relieved about it later.
If you have a detached house, then you have other rooms to declutter. Maybe a den, a garage (clutter heaven!). Many people need garage orgaization ideas. It is not a quick process, and it takes you less time. But then it saves you time, everyday, when your stuff is organized.
Here are some more tips for your approach to the benefits of your personal home organizing ideas, and enjoying the benefits.
