Organization: Pinterest Style

Since we moved I'm taking the opportunity to put to use some of those great organizational ideas I'm always pinning! Here's what I've done so far!

Turn all of your hangers backwards in January. Whenever you wear something hang it back up with the hanger the right way. At the end of the year, anything that hasn't been turned around should be gotten rid of! 

I had been wanting to do this, but spending the time to switch all of my hangers when I knew we were going to be moving didn't sound like fun. When I hung all my clothes back up I decided to give it a try. In January I'm planning on going through it.

Hang a tension rod under your sink and hang spray bottle by nozzle. 

This is seriously genius!  One: It clears up the space under my sink. Two: I don't have to search through my bottles for the correct one. It's right there! Three: The rod is only $4. Go do this!

Hang scarfs by shower rods on hanger.

Love this! All my scarfs are in one place and I can easily slip them off of the ring without undoing anything. Only annoyance is that they tend to slid to one side or another. Clearly I need to buy more scarfs to remedy this issue!

Next on my list, shoe hangers and a dry erase calendar!

  2. Moving is the perfect motivation to get a lot of organizing done! I know I never would have tried most of these otherwise!
