That means a lot of decluttering has been happening in my home. Organization is something everyone can benefit from whether your house is large or small! I&#8217;m focusing on a few key areas to help my home function better.<\/p>\n<p><strong>MUDROOM<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My husband and I recently updated our laundry\/mudroom by adding cabinetry above and between the washer and dryer. We also removed a small shallow closet to install high cabinets, hooks and shoe storage.<\/p>\n<p>Though the space isn&#8217;t big, it functions so much better for us. We&#8217;ve been working on organizing the cabinet interiors that house cleaning supplies and bulk household items.<\/p>\n<p>Take advantage of the storage opportunities on the insides of cabinet doors. Mountable baskets are perfect for storing items you need to quickly access. I grabbed a couple of these to store cleaning supplies and vacuum attachments.<\/p>\n<p>Bins and baskets make it easy to grab\u00a0scarfs, hats and gloves before heading out the door.<\/p>\n<p>If space is at a minimum, this option is great hanging coats and bags and even has a few small bins and a shelf!<\/p>\n<p><strong>STORAGE ROOM<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Our storage room has become one of those spaces where boxes get tossed in without even looking. It&#8217;s difficult to find things and hard to\u00a0walk through!<\/p>\n<p>We are busy going through our belongings and making toss\/keep\/donate piles. Once we know what we are keeping THEN we will buy the appropriate storage containers. I&#8217;m thinking we will do some clear bins so we can see what will be stored.<\/p>\n<p>A label maker will come in handy for labeling bins and can help you organize the rest of house, too!<\/p>\n<p><strong>GARAGE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While it&#8217;s not the most glamorous of spaces, organizing our garage is the project I&#8217;m looking forward to the most. The plan is to install a large pegboard wall to store all of our tools and project supplies.<\/p>\n<p>Storage walls take full advantage of the vertical space available. Everything is easily visible, accessible, and CLEAN.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ikea.com\/us\/en\/catalog\/products\/60238645\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Magnetic knife racks<\/a> are great for holding drill bits, screw drivers and even paint brushes.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve got my work cut out for me!
