How To Organize Your Home

With homes becoming centers for work and family life, we're keeping more inside them than ever before. It seems that most homes aren't built with enough space to hold our growing piles of belongings. 

If you've ever sat down to pay bills at a cluttered desk or frantically searched for a suit in a bulging closet, you know how frustrating it can be to have too little space.

But even if you could snap your fingers and make another closet appear, more space wouldn't be the answer. Without a system of organization, even the largest home would fill up over time. 

Out of sight, out of mind, or so the adage goes. But you can go on dumping the excess of daily life into drawers, piling it in the basement, or tossing it in a box for only so long.

Sooner or later, the drawers will get stuck, the basement walkway will disappear, and the box will overflow. And the already space-crunched surfaces in your home will be teeming with stuff. 

What's the solution? Begin by clearing out what you can, finding a place for what's left, and creating a system to organize the new things that come through your doors. 

The tips and strategies below can help organize every room in your home.
