10 Savvy Organizing Tricks

10 Savvy Organizing Tricks

If you’re tired of always running around the house looking for that cell phone or other important item, get organized! Be willing to install some organizational items, and stay on top of clutter. Here are ten ways to get organized and stay organized.

#1 – Use a Chest of Drawers or Two

Place a chest of drawers by the entry way so that you have a place to set your stuff when you enter your home, and all of your knickknacks can be stored in the drawers.

#2 – Keep the Media Center Organized

Old movies or things your kids have outgrown can be placed in remote storage or donated. Keep your media center current, and use shelves for things you watch frequently or use frequently.

#3 – Baskets & Hidden Storage

An ottoman that opens up can store a great deal of goods that would normally be clutter – take advantage of those as well as attractive baskets to hold small items that get lost easily.

#4 – Use Space Savers

Deep drawers in the kitchen can benefit from canned goods dispensers, and small buckets can hold goods that typically spill. Use sealed canisters for foods and keep similar foods together for easy access.

#5 – Accordion Files

Use accordion files for coupons, recipes, paperwork, tax information, and keep them in their respective places – coupons and recipes in the kitchen, paperwork and tax information in the home office.

#6 – Closet Organizers

A simple closet organizer with a shoe rack and shelves can help save you time getting ready for work or for going out.

#7 – Labels

If you’re putting items in boxes and drawers, have a neat label for each one, for easy reference when getting stuff out and putting it away.

#8 – Dividers

If your vanity drawers are cluttered, use dividers to organize makeup, jewelry, and health and beauty aids.

#9 – Hang it Up

Hooks on walls in entry ways keep your coat and purse within easy reach, and a work space is better organized with customizable work paneling.

#10 – Be consistent with clutter.

Don’t let clutter get ahead of you. When you’re done with something, conscientiously put it back where it belongs. That way, you don’t have to do a major organizational overhaul every month. Tidy up on a daily basis, and the home will stay organized.

A consistent routine of placing things where they belong will help your home avoid a mess later on. If you and your family are careful in putting things back as soon as you’re done with them, and replacing items consistently, you should have no problem maintaining a well-organized home.

Kitchen Gadgets Everyone Should Have

Kitchen Gadgets Everyone Should Have

Kitchen gadgets make great gifts for newlywed couples, people who love to cook, and just about everyone – but they’re not just for gifts – there are essentials you should buy for yourself, too. Below is a list of five kitchen gadgets that complete your kitchen.

#1 – A Slow Cooker

The slow cooker, or crock pot, is your best friend in the kitchen, especially if you’re busy and don’t have time to throw together a healthy meal in the evenings. Just set up your slow cooker in the morning, and your meal will be ready when you get home. Soups and stews come out perfectly with just a bit of preparation, and low-fat meats come out tender and juicy after a few hours of simmering.

#2 – Immersion Blender

Also known as a hand blender, this item is ideal for pureeing items right on the stove top, or making smoothies right in the cup. After that, clean up is ultra simple – just rinse it under the faucet and leave it out to dry.

#3 – Vegetable Peeler

Vegetable peelers not only save your hands peeling veggies, they can be used for slicing out sections of cheese for platters, and making chocolate curls for cakes, pastries, and frothy drinks. When you have guests over and are crafting hand-made drinks, those little chocolate curls add a nice, finishing touch that your visitors will appreciate.

#4 – Kitchen Shears

These special scissors are a must have for anyone who likes to cook. They make cutting easy – and not just for opening packages. Separating the joint on a chicken leg is simple with kitchen shears, and cutting up meat for steaks is simple with the scissors.

#5 – An Expensive Knife Set

Invest in a top-brand knife set, and expect to spend anywhere from $60 to $150 on it – and you’ll never regret it. Make sure that the knives have full tang and are weighted well in the hand. The bolster should be one single piece (that’s where the blade meets the handle), and the steel should be forged, not stamped. Furthermore, the chef’s knife in the set should have a smooth edge and not be serrated. The steak knives can be, but smooth, sharp edges are almost always superior.

These five gadgets complete your kitchen and are must haves for everyone. Invest in well-made products that will last, and you’ll find they are worth the investment – they pay for themselves in making meals easier and cooking more convenient.
