You know one of my big strategies is to NOT organize, just declutter. It makes my life easier, helps me get started, and has made a huge difference in our home. Really, it was a game changer. It also keeps me from buying a bunch of containers I may never use. Not that I never use containers. But when I do, it generally works like … [Read more...]
