October Family Goals {Free Printable!}




It's October!  It's the beginning of a new month and that means a Monthly Family Goals printable for you!

October is a good month.  My daughter's birthday is today!  And in Canada we celebrate Thanksgiving in a few weeks.  And of course there's Halloween to wrap up the month.  I'm super happy we've had some warm summer-like days the past week though... not completely ready to admit it's fall yet :)

Day 1: Jars {31 Cheap & Easy DIY Organizers}




Think you have to spend a lot of money on costly organizing tools to get your house in order?  Nope!  Getting organized doesn't have to be expensive!

Throughout this series I'm sharing ideas to help you organize your home by either

  • making simple organizers with things that don't cost very much OR
  • using items you already have in a different way.
If cost has been holding you back from getting organized, now you've got no more excuses!

To kick things off today, I'm going to talk about one of my favourite organizers... JARS!

Organizing Ideas for the Weekend: Decluttering Clothes




Happy Friday!  Time for another organizing idea for your weekend!

I've been helping clients declutter their clothing and I thought I'd share some tips to help you declutter your clothing this weekend!

It's the perfect time to do it because you're probably switching your seasonal wardrobe around now anyway.  Don't store clothing for the next 6-8 months that you didn't wear this season.  Or that you have extras of.  Purge now!  You can even purge some of the clothing for the coming season that you don't like or that doesn't fit or that you have extras of.

365 Items in 365 Days Challenge: August and September Update




How are you doing in the 365 Items in 365 Days Declutter Challenge?  It's the 266th day of the year today so if you started in January, your target is to have purged 266 items by now.  But don't worry if you've just started.  Just jump in!  And now is a great time to declutter now that the days are getting cooler and your family is spending more time indoors. 

Today I'll be sharing what I've been decluttering since my last update.  By doing these monthly updates I hope to give you ideas of things you can purge from your home.
