I have a few favorite things when it comes to organizing. Today I'm going to share five of them with you. If you have ever worked with me you can probably name a few because you're probably using them in your house. It will also come as no surprise to my friends and clients that you can find everything I suggest at Target. That's not to say that you can't buy these things at other stores...I just may or may not have a bit of an obsession with Target. In fact, I ...continue reading
Five on Friday – Five Minute Projects
I decided today deserved a five on friday post. Today's post is going to be five short five minute projects you can do this weekend to organize your home!

I love them and they ...continue reading
Medicine In The Closet
I keep our medicine in the closet. Three reasons. One: It is supposed to be kept in a room temperature spot, away from humidity....ie not in the bathroom. Two: I have a lock on this closet door that none of my children can open...yet. Three: It's where I have the space. I keep all the meds on this lazy suzan which is great because I can spin it and find what I need. It is also great in case anything happens to leak...it doesn't get all over my shelf. This is ...continue reading
