Here are our 5 tips to get your home stylishly organized and keep it that way!
STEP 1: SORTING
Start one room at a time and pull everything out. From there, sort the same or similar items into a pile so you can then set them all in one place and take an assessment of what you have.
sTEP 2: EDIT AND ELIMINATE
Now that you have all your items in piles, decide what items in your home you want to keep, donate, or throw away. Keep only the things you love or need, and try not to keep duplicates of things. By paring down your belongings your home will stay neat and organized for longer!
Step 3: ASSIGN A HOME
Now that you have all your household items sorted and you've only kept the essentials, you are ready to find a home for them. Pick spaces that will fit the item neatly and will logistically make sense.
Step 4: USE CONTAINERS
Storage containers and dividers will make a huge difference in keeping your drawers, closets, and cupboards organized. We recommend you invest in containers to nicely store your items to help keep them in their place. We’re a big fan of using organizing bins in our kitchens, bathrooms, and dressers. There are some really beautiful options out there and they’ll help you make sure each item stays in its assigned home.
Step 5: maintain
Now that you've spent all this time, effort, and possibly money to get your home organized, do yourself a favor and maintain it! We suggest having a monthly rotation of rooms in your home that get a quick and easy refresh.
Follow these 5 simple tips and we promise your house will stay organized and perfectly lovely just like you!
