With multiple benefits, it’s hard to not jump on the organizing bandwagon. Keeping your home decluttered requires effort and upkeep but the results are like gran’s cookies. You know they’ll be warm and inviting and will make you feel good.
When life happens and things get out of control, an orderly and systematized home easily bounces back to fabulous in minutes.
Organizational systems (which simply put, means that you know where the heck things belong) are the cornerstone of maintaining a decluttered, stress-less home.
Organization can bring a sense of calm and relieve stress by avoiding overwhelm when there isn’t enough time in the day to do household chores.
When small spaces (like closets and cabinets) have systems in place, the whole household can collectively contribute to putting away groceries and laundry.
This elicits a tribal mentality, one that humans have thrived off for centuries.
Everyone can contribute. So often in the western home dynamic, the parent who cares for the children the most is in a hamster wheel of constantly picking up and cleaning up after the kids, doing laundry, unpacking the dishwasher, groceries and cooking. Rinse and repeat, daily.
The onus is shared with the entire family entity when there are organizing systems in place. This brings a sense of community and compassion to the family.
When the home is decluttered, more life can happen. More playtime, less cleaning. More goal achieving, less tidying. The home becomes an efficient, time saving machine.
Amongst the long list of benefits, there are a few that stand out:
On the flip side, when things don’t go as planned, there are a couple of downsides to watch out for:
Tidying up requires an organizing system. Tidying and organizing are two completely different things. An organizing system is the result of decluttering, tidying up and placement with intention.
We thoroughly understand the needs, user experience, lifestyle and what is important to the client through our onboarding process. This directly impacts how the closet is organized, making every closet we organize different to the other. The foundations for closet organizing are:
The foundational method is super similar to closets:
Once an organizing system has been implemented, homeowners should expect that closets & cabinets are not going to remain 100% perfect everyday, unless someone is tending to them everyday.
Some goals to maintain the system: schedule routine organizing days to reset your organizing system. This is best done on a weekly or bi-weekly schedule for high-traffic areas like the Pantry; kitchens & closets once a month; laundry once every two months.
