\"Organizing<\/p>\n

HI! \u00a0I’m back from holiday break and\u00a0so so pumped to get to blogging again because I missed you. \u00a0Hoping you’re all caught up on rest and ready to get to work on this thing we know is going to be the hot topic of January always.<\/p>\n

I get into\u00a0hyper mode with organizing right after the holidays because the clutter seems to be the most out of control during that time. \u00a0Once I take the Christmas tree and decorations down, I feel so freed by the empty space and want to make the whole apartment feel that way and get rid of everything. \u00a0Ok so I’m still bad at getting rid of things, but organizing I can do.<\/p>\n

One dilemma I always have\u00a0after every Christmas is the growth of my\u00a0gift wrapping supplies, which previously made their home at the bottom of my bedroom closet, which was messy and not a long term solution. \u00a0Knowing that I wanted to\u00a0focus on\u00a0this issue for this month’s Michaels Makers challenge to organize a space, I looked for a way I could take this clutter out of the bedroom closet and into our living room storage closet in a way that wouldn’t drive me crazy.<\/p>\n

\"Hanging<\/p>\n

Of course I’d love\u00a0to have a craft room, or an office, or a dedicated storage unit for supplies, but the challenge of our small space and ridiculous lack of storage options made this over-the-door organizing unit from Michaels<\/a> most ideal.<\/p>\n

I originally intended for this to be a dedicated wrapping station, but then I was like wait I have 562 bottles of paint that would fit perfectly into the baskets why not? \u00a0They were previously stored in our linen\/toiletry cabinet (I wasn’t kidding about\u00a0storage being\u00a0scarce\u00a0around here) and moving all of them over here has increased happiness levels by 1000%. \u00a0I also discovered that I kept buying the same bottle of black paint over and over because I previously couldn’t tell that I already had it. \u00a0I look forward to no longer doing that because now I can SEE everything.<\/p>\n

\"Ribbon<\/p>\n

Other than\u00a0now having a place to\u00a0hang up\u00a0my Washi tape (previously found all over the apartment on any open surface) I’m most satisfied with this ribbon rack because ribbon is SO annoying to store, but not anymore!<\/p>\n

\"Hanging<\/p>\n

I’m at peace with this, guys. \u00a0It feels good, and it feels even better knowing that this is something I can keep up with and\u00a0maintain.<\/p>\n

Are you facing some of the same or similar issues? \u00a0Already have a plan of what you’ll start organizing first this year?<\/p>\n

Lots more organizing tips and inspo from the other Michaels Makers here<\/a>! \u00a0There will also be more on the subject the rest of this month, so definitely let me know what your organizing goals are.<\/p>\n
