So you are ready to get organized but don’t know where to start when it comes to buying containers? Use these four steps to help you find the right container for your space.

The key to paper is having a system to deal with it so it doesn’t become piles around the house or lost when it should be addressed.

When it comes to playrooms, the key is finding a system that works well for the parents and the children. I typically try to find a system that children can clean up easily and looks put away for the parents. It’s way easier to go to bed at night when the toys are cleaned up!

The key to a smooth running household is routines – both for children and parents. Think about each routine and what would work well for your family with the ages of your children.

Kids’ rooms can be tough, especially toddlers. They are constantly growing and clothes sizes are changing. The key to a kid’s clothing is to work with that change. When organizing a kid’s closet and dresser, you want to have systems for bringing in new clothes and getting rid of outgrown clothes. Many of these tips will work for older kids as well. They are still growing out of clothing, just not as quickly.

A great time to get organized is when moving. Taking time to declutter and organize before you move can save time and money!

The part of my day that used to take the longest was making dinner. I thought that I had to spend time following a recipe that involved lots of chopping and putting ingredients together. Since having kids, I have made dinners so much easier. I normally have about 25 minutes of a tv show to get dinner ready and on the table without going into too much screen time for my kids. Now, I typically finish what I need to do in less time because I have developed a plan that works well for our family.

From consultation, all the way through the final organized product, I have a system that gets my clients organized and helps them stay that way in Houston, TX.

The most important part for toy organization is finding a system that works for you and your family can grow into. We have a combination of the Kallax system as well as smaller containers for items. With a four year old and a two year old, we are transitioning into toys with smaller items and more pieces. The smaller containers keep everything together, which little brother can spend time in the cube bins finding toys that are age appropriate for him!
