G is for Golf Supply Organization
I was at Bed Bath and Beyond and saw this Golf Organizer. I'm not much of a golfer but know a lot of people who do, so I am sharing this. The price was inexpensive too.

Being Thankful Today and Everyday!
Today it is Thanksgiving here in America. Much attention is paid to the food (and I do love the food.) especially the Turkey! I'd like to take the time to be thankful today!
I am thankful for the life that I have and I am creating.
I am thankful of the opportunity to bring this blog to you and the rest of the world. I am appreciative of the chance to share what I know and what I learn. Knowledge makes the world run and giving back makes the world go round.

Are You Ready For Thanksgiving?
Thanksgiving is in a few days!
Are you ready?
I am!
And I am calm.
How am I calm during what is considered a stressful time? I planned!
I am the cook for the family for Thanksgiving. After a few stress filled holidays, I learned to create a binder. My binder consists of:
Family recipes
My recipes
A timeline of events (which can be modified)
Inventory of thanksgiving related supplies AFTER thanksgiving (so I know what to buy later)
Also I have a container filled with Thanksgiving related supplies.
I usually buy my food supplies a week before Thanksgiving. Sometimes I have many of the ingredients already. I open the binder and look in the kitchen and pull out what i have already. And shop for what I need.
All of these things has made my life easier for Thanksgiving. Maybe this would work for you too!!
Its not too late to start the process.

A TRUE Quote!
I LOVE this quote! It is SO true!
Getting organized is like every thing else in life....it starts with YOU. YOU are the one to begin the change.

The Dollar Stores Have Some Great Products For Organizing
I was with my mother the other day and she likes to shop at Dollar Tree, Family Dollar, 99 cent stores, and Big Lots. They are inexpensive places and if you are looking for organizing products, there are some useful things there.
In this case, I am talking about drawer organization. I bought some plastic baskets (see above) and they really work!

E is for Egg Cartons
I am all about re purposing items. For one, it helps with not bringing MORE items into a space. Take Egg Cartons for instance. Some farmers markets will let you bring in empty egg cartons to refill with eggs.
Another use for egg cartons is for storage! You can use them to store office supplies like paper clips, rubber bands, staples, etc. They can be a great jewelry organizer, especially earrings and rings.
You can use them to hold paint or other crafting supplies when the kids are working on school projects.
Basically cut off the top part and use the bottom half for storage and organization.

Where To Keep Cleaning Supplies
I like my supplies to be near to me. I like to have them easily accessible. It increases the chances that I will clean. I have cleaning supplies in my bathroom. I have my kitchen related cleaning supplies in my kitchen. And I have some multipurpose cleaning supplies in the service porch/mudroom/utility room/laundry room (whatever you call it).
I don't want to have to go far to clean a space. I want to be IN the room already and just grab what I need.

A Drawer of Shoes
Here is another idea for your shoes: drawers. Shoes in drawers. Its a great alternative to having them on the floor. Or if you don't have extra room for shoe racks. I have a client doesn't like to see their appliances, so I suggested this for her closet and she loved it!

I Can't Peel The Label Off!
I like to pass on solutions to life's everyday issues. Also I like to reuse items and give them a second life. One thing that can be annoying is getting labels off jars and cans. One good way to get labels off is to first fill the jars with hot water, let them soak a few minutes, and while the hot water is in the jar, just peel the label off.

Product I Like: simplehuman Bt1028 Twin Wall Mount Shampoo & Soap Dispenser, 15 oz.
I'm always looking for products that can help in the reduction of clutter. Bathrooms are a clutter magnet, especially with all the hair and skin products with use.
The simplehuman wall mount pump eliminates bottle clutter from your shower and helps keep everything you need within easy reach. The ergonomic t-bar lever works with your natural grip for precise, one-handed dispensing and removable hooks hold a razor, loofah or other accessories. Installs easily with adhesive strips and silicone glue (included).
I think it is a great product if you have small children. You can teach them how to use this and its a lot less mess than having bottles everywhere. AND its sleek in design, so you don't have to give up style! They around between $35 and $50 dollars and can be found at many major retailers like MACYS and Bed Bath and Beyond. Online or instore.

M is for Movable Storage
I love the idea of having storage on wheels. Its easy to move around. You can move it where you need it. Its also easy to use while organizing. They are can be used AS furniture pieces too. Rolling carts with coordinating boxes on them are a great idea. You can label the boxes. You can use decorative boxes. So the cart/boxes can match the decor of your room or office.
