It happens to all of us. We move into the new home and are determined that everything will have a place and each thing will be in that place. As you unpack you stick to the program, putting things exactly where they belong. Every now and then you catch something in a wrong place and put it back.
Then a few more weeks go by. Now a few more things have gotten out of their designated space and you have only managed to return a few of them to their original location. Your life is getting back to normal, you are refocusing on your workload and the little details are getting less attention.
Kids Organizer Bins
A few months later, there are stacks of mail, bills, and other random papers on the counter. More than a few things are out of place and some areas are even starting to see the threat of 'clutter' building up. This is the reality of a home. No matter how hard you try, things are going to get out of their place. If you were the only one living there, there's no doubt this wouldn't happen, but there is the rest of the family to take into account and this is your one-person crusade against all of them. You're outnumbered.
There is a way to get things a little more organized. For all those things that seem to stack up, how many of them really don't have a set space? Probably a lot of them. So they keep floating around the house as people use them. Maybe it's time to bring in a storage chest or two.
While a storage chest can look like a beautiful piece of decorative furniture form the outside, when you open it there is plenty of room to get rid of some of that stuff.
Are your problem items large items or small items? If they are large items, such as sporting goods, you may be able to just put them all in the storage chest and let it go at that. But if there are a lot of small items - arts and crafts items, clothing accessories, etc, you need to be able to keep track of them once they are in the chest or you will spend a lot of your time digging through and looking for them.
Purchase small plastic bins that will fit inside the chest or large plastic Ziploc bags that can be used to sort and organize things before they go into the storage chest. You should always use clear plastic bags and bins for this kind of sorting because it will make it a lot easier to quickly spot what you are looking through the clear bag.
You can even take the organization one step furniture by finding a chest that suits the theme of what is inside. For example, a sporting goods storage chest could have a sports scene on it, and arts and crafts chest could have a painted country blanket pattern that gives you a clue to what's inside.
