Organize by Erica

Organization doesn't have to be sexy; it just needs to be functional.

I think a lot of people get caught up in the aesthetic of being organized, especially here on Instagram. Don't get me wrong, I love a pretty closet with fancy, new organizers and color coordination. But that's not realistic for most people. Most of my clients just need the space to be functional again.

So don't let what you see on social media intimidate you. Let it inspire you to get started and get creative with your organization!

You may be wondering why it's necessary to label open containers. Let me tell you why...⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Labels gently remind us to put ONLY those items into those containers. So even if I can see that this box is full of flip-flops, the label reminds me not to put my sunglasses in there when I'm rushing around.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

This is especially helpful with bigger storage bins (think seasonal decorations). It's a lot easier to read a label than open a bin to see what is inside.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Labels make it super easy to stay organized as long as you stick to them (no pun intended 🤣). If you find yourself with several items that don't have a home, then it may be time to get another container. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Are you a labeller?
