Ordering as a habit: 5 tips for organizing the storage of things in the house

“It all started helping organize the kitchen, but soon customers started asking for help with other areas. The organization of space is not only a comfortable and clean house. It’s about finding a place for the things you really need, being able to figure out what you want to achieve, creating space for your own future.” Here are some strategies she suggests to to try.

Look around you. Find things you haven’t used in the past year and ask yourself why. Assessing a pile of things stacked on the back of a chair, finding their proper place, shifting them (not just putting them out of sight).

An important part of organizing space in the home is minimizing impulse purchases. There’s little need to buy paper towels a year in advance if you have nowhere to store them. Same with clothes. You can make a list of what you need. And if you are going to buy new appliances or household items, get rid of the old ones first. Nowadays, we sometimes want to show that we can afford everything… and then most of them will never be used.

It is perfectly normal to fill all available storage space. The empty shelves seem to make you want to buy something else! You need to understand why you need each specific shelf or box. For example, if you have a clock, flowers and a scented candle on your kitchen windowsill, you don’t need to pile old magazines there, because there’s nowhere else put. If you decide to eat well, you can put a bowl of fruit on the kitchen table, but paper mail does not belong there. The concept of storing necessary items will gradually develop, and it will be easier for you to figure out what to put where.

Husband and children may not be supporters of cleanliness and order. Watch their habits for a few days (although you probably already know all about them). Do they leave crumbs on the kitchen table? Are schoolbags brought to the room? Are things scattered everywhere? For example, if the children take off their shoes at the entrance, it is a good idea to put an absorbent mat there. If the husband can’t find the keys in the morning, hang the housekeeper somewhere convenient.

Many people overlook fashionable ways to store things, but it’s actually practical. For example, it is convenient to put T-shirts vertically in a drawer so that you can immediately see what to wear, and not search through a shelf with things, waste time and get upset. People complain about having a lot of stuff they have nowhere to put, but these methods really save space!
