Rise and Shine: Using Risers to Increase Your Storage and Get Organized
Risers, or tiered organizers, may be the unsung heroes of home organization, essentially allowing you to almost double your shelf storage.
If You Can’t Cut the Cord, Store It
I recently tackled the task of organizing our cords. After doing an initial purge, which involved giving away and recycling duplicates or cords we no longer needed, I searched for containment and storage options.
You Can Decant
Decanting may seem like it’s a lot of trouble at first glance, but it can actually save you time and money, and can help you stay organized once you’ve made it part of your organization system.
Workspace Organization: Eliminate Distractions, Increase Productivity
Organizing a workspace—whether it’s a home office or part of a business or commercial space—brings unique challenges, but if you take the time to think through your daily routine and the ways in which you move through and work in your space every day, you can create a system that works for you and makes you more organized.
Divide and Conquer Clutter: Shelf and Drawer Dividers
Dividers are one of our favorite tools for organizing and demarcating space and conquering clutter.
There are of course countless container or bin options for organizing belongings, however sometimes the flexibility of a simple divider—which can be moved around as you accumulate new or different things and eliminate others—might be just what you need to create zones and separation in your drawers or on your shelves.

Back to School: Storage and Style in the Dorm
It’s that time again when parents and students from coast to coast are shopping for college dorm supplies, loading up cars, and packing boxes as they prepare for an exciting adventure, but also one that will come with some logistical challenges.
Dorm rooms are notoriously small and poorly appointed, and it’s almost a rite of passage to learn how to live in a tiny space with one, two, or possibly even three roommates. But innovative product designers, retailers, and creative people the world over have transformed dorm living, making it possible for college students to achieve both stylishness and order in their tiny spaces.
Organized Travel: The Magic of Packing Cubes
Staying organized while traveling used to be an issue for me. With two young children to entertain, the last thing I wanted to do while on vacation was constantly tidy up. My family was notorious for the messy hotel room. This was until we discovered packing cubes.
Recycle Right in Southwest Florida
Sometimes I have trouble getting things out of the house. It’s not because I want to keep them or because I’m ignoring them, I just want to be sure that I dispose of things properly. Valuable items might need to be listed on eBay or donated. Garbage (hopefully) fits in the trash bins, but we also have wonderfully convenient recycling programs in Collier and Lee counties that will make sure our items are disposed of in the best way possible.
