3 of things Thurs: Organized cohabitation
Today Huzzin (long story) and I celebrate 10 years of marital bliss without a bump (snort). So I figured it would be a great day to chat a little bit about some wonderful ways to co-organize with your spouse or partner...aka here are some tricks to store stuff/work together in your home over long periods of time without killing each other. 1) Have less stuff SEEMS SIMPLE RIGHT??? Not always so. When you are just starting out, most people don't have a lot of stuff, so the topi

3 Things Thurs: Remote decluttering
......So many people get to "go to work" remotely nowadays. I am actually working on adding a remote "virtual" organizing service to my roster of ways to help people with clutter. But until then, how can you (sans organizer) get a handle on clutter when you are away from home? Well there is a good chance you are looking at the answer right now - your digital device. Here are a few ways you can declutter when you are standing in line at the grocery store, waiting in carpool, o

3 Things Thurs: Biggie and the 1880s
......I'm in a sweet FB group all about women supporting women and a recent topic was how to make more time in your day. It sparked a BIG convo in my Decluttering group (Which you can join here https://www.facebook.com/groups/declutteringandorganizing/), about life hacks and how to get more done in less time. The ultimate goal is to have more time to enjoy the things you really love. Today's 3 things are some highlights. 1) Delegate: Because you can't do it all (nor should yo

3 Things Thursday: What about your Car? (Part 2)
......In case y'all missed it last week - here's a link to the segment and links to the remaining items that were not on last week's blog! 1) Headrest hooks: I LOVE my seat hooks. I hang either my handbag or oversized water bottle on my passenger seat hooks. It's especially great for a handbag so if you have a sudden stop, your bag is not upended with the contents going flying all over the front of your car. PRO TIP - if you have kids, get the one that will hold your phone fo

3 Things Thursday: What about your Car? (Part 1)
......Check a sista out TODAY on Good Afternoon Afternoon Arkansas! I'll be discussing the below tips and MORE on Car Organization! 1) Never leave your car empty handed - As with any behavior modification - this is a tough one - but once you get into the habit - you'll find you'll rarely have trash or unwanted items left in your car when you get back in. Take something with you (and have your kids/passengers do the same!). **This will also alleviate the need to have some sort

3 Things: Is your kitchen b**tchin?
......Check a sista out TODAY on Good Afternoon Afternoon Arkansas! I'll be discussing the below tips and MORE on Kitchen Organization! 1) Declutter (and I threw in a little spice): Yeah I know I know I know - this is ALWAYS the first step. But hear me out. If you don't get rid of things that you don't need - aren't you really just moving stuff around? So get rid of that box of chicken tikka masala seasoning that moved with you from college. Do you have multiple colanders, sp

3 Things Thursday: (ummm, 5 actually)
We STAYcationed over Spring Break and it has me DREAMING of the beach. If any of you are traveling anytime soon, check out these packing hacks that were featured on Good Afternoon Arkansas W/Elicia Dover! There are usually two kinds of packers 1) the meticulous packer who starts collecting items and writing lists weeks before departure, and 2) the wait-until-the-last-minute packer who throws everything in a bag the night before. Wouldn't it be nice to have a healthy mix of bo

3 Things Thursday: Ready for Spring?
Welp. If you live in Arkansas, you never really know what season it is this time of year. Sometimes its below freezing in the AM and sometimes it's sunny and park-weather the same afternoon. As they say here, "If you don't like the weather, wait 5 minutes." I am READY for Spring. 1) Do a mudroom swap: Wherever you literally "hang your hat" when you walk in the door may need a seasonal update. Maybe some of those hats and gloves can be replaced with almost open-toed shoes and

3 things Thursday: Organization to Streamline your Morning
(did y'all miss me?) Okay so I talk A LOT about how Organizing your space can impact your life in a positive way, but what about organizing your time? I used to be a “morning person,” but adulting and having children has made be a little less bright eyed when the alarm sounds. If you feel the same, here are some small shifts in time management and habits that can really curtail the morning drag: ***You can also see the breakdown in the clip on last week's Good Afternoon Arkan

3 things Thursday - "getting ready" hacks
Okay, maybe a weird topic for an organizing blog, but you can absolutely file this under productivity. Hacking your "getting ready" routine can save you so much time in the AM. And sorry fellas, this blog is definitely lady-geared, except for point 3 - you can def. skip to that. :) 1) Quick nails Here's a funny thing that happens - every time I am on air someone mentions how much they like my nails. What they don't know is that were actually APPLIED IN THE CAR ON THE WAY TO T
