Crafting to organize is something that works for me.
You know those people who clean and organize stuff when they get stressed? Yeah, I’m not one of them.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m still praying that one day I’ll wake up with that trait. But at 28, I’m not holding my breath or anything.
In the meantime, I’m working on some ways to set up our house so that it just remains more organized in the first place. This is so logical – why have I not been doing this all along?! You might remember the declutter shutter that helped transform our kitchen table into a kitchen table where meals could be served. Well after using the shutter for a while, I found I kept sticking ugly stick it notes all over the mail to help remind me what was inside the envelopes. So here is my ten minute craft solution: Cute little clothespins covered with washi tape and a scrabble letter to label what stack of mail its holding. For example: D stands for deals, like coupons. F is for things to File…ect. Ok so I couldn’t find an F. S is for things to “stash” same difference. Crafting is all about flexibility, thats what I’ve learned. Its the simplest craft ever. But I’m sharing it because its so easy and you could use these ANYWHERE to help organize. Besides who doesn’t love a reason to use those cute craft scrabble letters? Check out the organized declutter shutter: Whoo Hoo! There’s hope for my organization skills yet. Happy crafting.
