Staying organized can be difficult no matter the time of year. But it feels like summer organization brings its own set of challenges.
You are likely off your normal routine, bedtimes change, kids are spending more time in the house which means more messes created. And when there’s a choice between playing and making s’mores or cleaning, well…even I wouldn’t choose cleaning. Continue reading »
Thank you to At Home stores for partnering with me to share dorm room storage ideas.
Bubbles starts kindergarten in less than a couple of weeks. Getting her ready for school has had me thinking back to all my first days of school, from kindergarten to high school and even to college.
We have a few years before we need to think about college planning again, but I have friends who are sending their kids for the first time. I wanted to share some of the easy dorm room storage ideas that were most beneficial to me as a college student. Some of them are so obvious, you may not have even thought of them! Continue reading »
This shop and my home office organization has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions and shouts of joy are mine alone. #BIGDeal #CollectiveBias
I started working from home in 2008, so I’ve had a home office for many years. As a blogger, though, my home office organization needs have changed a great deal between now and then. I have less need for filing cabinets and more need for, say, an area to take pictures and a place to store all my “stuff”.
To say that my home office had started to get a little overrun is an understatement. I love shopping for photography props so I had plastic tubs of dishes, linens, accessories, holiday items and more. The main problem with this, though, is that half the time I would buy something and then promptly forget I owned it. And if I did remember owning it, finding it was another challenge.

This is a partnered post brought to you by HomeZada. All thoughts and words are my own.
There is a lot that comes with owning or living in a house. You have to store all home documents like a mortgage or rental agreement, insurance papers, and warranties and contacts for any work you’ve had done or are in the process of completing. Plus there’s a lot of upkeep for landscaping, appliances, and the inner workings of the house itself.
It can be hard to keep track of it all without making your head spin, or without something going missing or you forgetting to do something. I’m an extremely organized person and can lay my hand on pretty much anything you could think to ask for, but even then it usually means rummaging through a bin or box to get to what I need. Wouldn’t it be nice to have it all online in one spot?
I think so, and so does HomeZada. HomeZada is the digital hub of information for your home. It’s where you can upload documents, manage alerts and so much more. They even have an app so you can access your home’s information on the go. Continue reading »
Many of us are starting the New Year by tackling organization projects. For us, our three main organization projects for January are the garage, a storage closet that was turned upside-down by the holidays, and our pantry. I’m one of those people who actually look forward to labeling, sorting, and putting things in their place so I’m excited to roll up my sleeves and get to work.
I thought I would put together a list of organization tips, tricks, storage solutions, free printables, DIY home solutions, and more in order to help you cross off all the areas on your lists this year. I’ve broken them down by area, type, or category so you can quickly find what’s most applicable to you. I hope they help! Continue reading »
