Home Organizing Hacks

January is all about new beginnings. New goals, new routines, and often times, lots of organizing and cleaning too. So, we thought we would squeeeeeze in one last post this month to help you get and stay organized this year. These home organizing hacks are easy to do, time-saving, and will improve the appearance of any messy spaces you might have in your home. Now who doesn’t want that? If you needed a boost to bring a little organization into your life, this is the perfect post for you! While a tidy space looks great, there are actually other benefits to having organization in your life. We’re rounding up those benefits, organizing tips, ideas, and solutions for keeping things ship shape.

In case you missed it, we shared some spring-cleaning tips and closet organization tips here.

Importance of Being Organized

Aside from the fact that when things are organized, they’re just more aesthetically pleasing, there are other reasons to get and stay organized. Here are just a few I found in my research…

• Organization reduces stress and brings on calmness
• Saves time in completing tasks (aka looking for things!)
• An organized fridge or pantry leads to better eating habits
• Saves money – if you can find what you need when you need it, you spend less money replacing things
• Better overall wellness, AND sense of control

#1 Organizing Tip

My sweet friend shared this tip with me and it’s TOO good. She calls it her “Power Hour” and she gleaned the idea from a podcast. Throughout the week, she writes down all those little annoying things that need to get done around the house. Like changing out the lightbulbs in your ceiling fan, cleaning out the fridge, or finally organizing the junk drawer in the kitchen. Then, once a week (usually on the weekend) she sets a timer for 1 hour and dedicates that time to scratching as many to-dos off her list as possible. She just “powers” through it all at once instead of trying to make time each day or having a to-do list that never gets completed. I love this so much!

And here’s the thing – an idea becomes a “plan” when you write it down. Then, it becomes an “action” and then viola, you did it! PH to the rescue. Even better if you can get your partner or family to join in. You can read more about the items in the graphic above along with lots of other hacks to keep your home organized … just keep scrolling and you’ll find it all below!
