I have always been an organized person. I feel being this way helps people to live a better and saner life. Some don’t really know where to begin and others just can’t keep it up. Well here are some easy tips for getting organized that everyone can follow. Thanks to Better Homes and Gardens for sharing such great information.

Labeling bins, crates or baskets with everyone’s name can certainly help a bunch of items stay put – I borrowed the whole idea from Wunderlabel France. This is especially great for kids too.

Having a large family can sometimes get hectic. Even if you only have two kids it can get a little crazy. By giving everyone their space, each of their things has a place it belongs. Doing this in the entry is a great idea because things are put away right when you walk in the door which gives you one less thing to worry about.

Having an organized office space is crucial to getting things done in a timely manner. It’s also good for your sanity! I make sure my home office is always tidy and clean. Otherwise, I cannot work to the best of my ability. When I see ideas that not only work but look good too, I get super happy. This oversized pocket protector is perfect for keeping folders, papers, magazines and all sorts of items in place and close to your desk.

Reusing items or vintage objects is right up my alley. I love this idea to use an old suitcase to store linens. It can be used to hold other things too which is really cool.

With all the gadgets people have these days, needing a charging station is sort of essential. Back to repurposing with this vintage tool box reuse. Great idea!
