S.O.S.

If you have found your way here you need to simplify your life, organize your surroundings, save some money, or all three. I will share things we have done in our own quest to improve these areas. I will also include tips and ideas that we have not done ourselves, but may be helpful for you. I will add photos where possible and I will try to keep the posts short and simple so you can follow the tips easily. Put the tips into place and you will start to see and feel the change.

Scroll down to the bottom of the page to see my Amazon Store that is full of books and products to help you simplify, organize and save.

Three Box Minimum

    
Before I suggest too many things to help you simplify or organize, you need to be sure you are ready. Sometimes we just don’t know what to do with things, or we will say we will get to it later. Clutter builds up when we ignore things. It also stays clutter if we don’t have a plan for what to do with the things. Get at least three bins, boxes, baskets, or bags and place them in a place that is out in the open and easy to toss things into. You can have these in more than one room if you need to. Label them with categories such as DONATE, RETURN, PROJECTS, SORT, SHRED, SELL. Once you have this system set up, look
around and I bet you can find something for at least two of your categories. You will need this system in place before you do the project I post next.
