Organization Nation

Some thing that my husband & I have been bickering about lately is clutter... I try & try & try to not just pile things... but it happens... we moved into our home a little over 2 years ago... but with it being our first home it is taking a little while to get to the point of everything being organized & put away... so that is my goal for this weekend... to get a major head start on ORGANIZATION... & make my spare bedroom available to guests again... so I headed on over to Pinterest where I found a few ideas... I'm kind of excited to see how far I can get with it all this weekend... here are some of the ideas I thought were clever & may attempt to come up with some others myself...

1. Reverse Hanger Trick -  turn all hangers in closet backwards... as you wear an item return it washed to the closet & turn the hanger around... in 6 months time all hangers that have NOT been turned are items that you haven't worn, so you obviously don't need them & they are ready to be DONATED... (now of course as a FEMALE I know we have pieces that have their moments to be worn & that "moment" may not have come up in the past 6 months... but you know those pieces & what you definitely can get rid of)

2. Shelf above the bathroom door... DUH... why I never thought of that on my own is baffling me... but hey I found the idea & now I can execute it!!!

3. A tension rod in the cabinet to hang cleaning bottles from... again another DUH moment for me...

Looks like I will have my hands full this weekend & for the next few weeks until I accomplish all that I want... Kind of EXCITED!!!
