Are you stuffing files, jamming drawers…..
Is this your solution to maximizing space?
Here are a few tips to help your organizing storage containers:
a) Purchase the right container for the item(s)
b) Decide ahead of time how this will improve functionality
c) Take measurements of required containers and intended spaces
d) Purchase only what you need; this saves money & time in returns
e) Beware of sales items that do not fit your purpose; storing these to use "just in case" may create another storing problem
If your storage problem involves purchasing extra pieces of furnishings such as cabinets or bookshelves, STOP. Check to see if there is storage space in your home that is not being utilized such as closets, under beds or if adding or adjusting another shelf could store more items.
Books like Don't Sweat the Small Stuff by Dr. Richard Carlson reflect our national yearning for simplicity. It's amazing how a cluttered desk or disorganized home can add significant amounts of stress to our daily lives. Getting rid of the mess -- or at least organizing it more efficiently -- can be a tremendous relief.
