Top Two Tuesday….Organization

Todays top two topic is: Cleaning and Organization tips

I am very OCD and a huge neatfreak

Here are mine

1. Organize closet by color and style

I dont have pictures but my closet is organized like this : pants together, dresses, skirts, nice tops, long sleeved, sweaters, dress tops etc

I then have them in those sections by color. This way when I want something I know exactly where it is

2. Label makers!

This will save your life if you have a lot of containers that arent clear containers. I label everything. I also label my dvds because I rarely loan them out but I like to know whats mine haha.

Also use clear bins for everything its easier

Use a caboodle for makeup you dont use every single day

Store board games under your bed to save room if you have a small place

    My closet is organized by color and type too (tanks, tees, long-sleeved, and then sweaters) I just realized THIS weekend that I think I want to pull out all of my sports shirts and hang them together because I’ve aquired A LOT in the past few years 😉

    Your closet sounds like mine! My husband thought it was so weird when we first met. Oh well, most of his clothes end up on the floor!
