Today we went to the library and as usual I hit the architect books first, and by luck someone left this design book sitting in the architect section.
Minimalist Interiors by Quim Rossel.
I like minimalist design a lot, not necessarily because my goal is to live this way, or because I think I’ll design my own […]

I figured that since I just did a post on magazines, I should also show you this great video on sorting your magazines. I wouldn’t want your magazine collection to get out of control and it be my fault! lol.
I like the folder she used that you can just grab and go when you have […]

I have two great organizing magazines to tell you about. I received my “Organize Magazine“ in the mail a few days ago and I love it! It has Sherri Shepherd, from The View, on the cover and they have a story about how a professional organizer helped her get her New York apartment very organized. […]

The lovely Sandy from All Holiday Cafe sent me this awesome link a while back - I think she meant for me to post it at Offbeat Homes - and it is offbeat, but it’s also a super slick way to organize your books. Oddly, Julie posted something like this recently (that’s your clue).
So, without […]

I am reading a great book right now called How to Cheat at Organizing: Quick, Clutter-Clobbering Ways to Simplify Your Life. I love the cover of the book with Jeff Brendenberg juggling stuff (at least I am assuming that’s him). I feel like that’s all I do sometimes is juggle. I juggle our schedule, […]

At my house, we have a shoe basket near the door. It’s where the shoes are “supposed” to go after the kids take them off. Living in Alaska for three years got us in the habit of taking our shoes off when we entered the house. Well, honestly, the shoes make it to the basket […]

Do you have a ton of books? My husband and I both love to read and we have quite the book collection.
A few months ago we finally weeded through all of our books from school and got rid of a lot of them that we knew we would never need again.
If you have […]

I love love love getting my Domino magazine in the mail and I love it even more when it has the word “ORGANIZED” on it! It has a section in it that’s all about conquering clutter and it has some great ideas. I have only thumbed through it but plan on chilling out in […]

As I was flipping through my November issue of SELF magazine, I came to an article entitled “In 30 days, you can get organized.” Basically they give you one tip to follow everyday and by the end of the month, you will be a little more organized.
Some of the tips include making your bed, setting […]

Instead of holding on to old magazines which take up loads and loads of space, create a filing system and tear out the pages you want to keep.
You can buy a plastic filing container for about $5, and a package of filing folders for about $5 - $10; hit the sales when you can. Label […]
