5 Tips for Getting Organized in 2019 from Recent Magazine Articles

The beginning of the year is always about fresh starts and many people have desires of getting organized. Here are some organizing tips based on recent January 2019 magazine issues, including, Real Simple, Better Homes & Garden and House Beautiful.

Go vertical. When you are trying to organize small spaces, going vertical is usually a must. Put things up high that don't get used as much

Sort clothes by color. This will help you find things easier, not to mention it is aesthetically pleasing.

Use over the door racks. This is great to hold things like winter gear where you can easily grab and go.

Utilize lazy susans. Great for using in corners of cabinets and on shelves for those hard to reach places.

Label. Label bins and containers so you know where things should go when you finish using them.

What are some tips you have?

January is Get Organized & Be Productive Month

I decided to repost content from last year because it is pretty much the same thing I would say for this year. Happy Get Organized and Be Productive Month!

January is get organized month. The beginning of the year is always a great time to hit the reset button and declutter / organize. I personally have been doing a lot of that this last month. Here is a look back at a post I wrote in 2017 on the Eco Modern Concierge blog. I get calls from all over Houston from clients needing professional organizing help whether that it checking things off of their to-do list or organizing a closet. 

Here are some additional tips to think about:

• Getting organized this year? Here are some challenges that are currently going on right now: January Cure, Simplicity Challenge, 31 Days to Get Organized and Home Organization Challenge. 
• Purge unnecessary holiday items. 
• Create a daily to-do list.
• Make a list of yearly goals and check in each month.
• Go through mail when it comes in.
• Put those returns in your car and head to the store after work or during a lunch break.
• Hire a professional organizer / productivity consultant whether it is Eco Modern Concierge or other professional organizers. 

Happy Organizing this year! Feel free to call or email Eco Modern Concierge to get started on your organization journey. info@ecomodernconcierge.com / 281.961.1914
