Organize Now...WHILE You are Waiting for Tomorrow!!!

21times understands that you want everything "just right"...who doesn't? But you can be organized NOW- you don't have to wait until you can afford the fancy baskets and hooks and furniture. Sure, they are fantastic to have but what about now? All of your belongings are strewn about your bathroom, bedroom, kitchen and driving you nuts. 21times always stresses you don't have to spend a lot of money to be organized. No money? Well, what a great excuse to use what you have and rev up that imagination! Get everyone involved!! Does Dad need a container for his magazines or wires or tools?? Let's use those old shoe boxes you're saving (cut the charade- I've been in your house- I've seen them!! ; )  and cover it with pictures from his car, sports, cigar, gadgets, etc. magazine...Now everyone knows it's Dad's box for Dad's stuff and look at that, it's not all over the kitchen counter anymore! Your daughter's hair clips will look great in that coffee canister you swore to me you would use (hehe!) Can we paint it pink or her favorite color? Or use some wrapping paper?? Let her decorate it herself... Love those great hooks that match any decor- yeah, me too-but for now you can use nails and paint them funky colors. I know you are waiting to buy that fantastic shoe rack but in the meantime you CAN line them up neatly so you can find them today. You're waiting for that perfect jewelry sorter for your costume jewelry- you know - right now- put them on hangers- sort them by color, type- whatever you'd like. You get the idea!!  We all want our homes to be perfect. As for me, I'll take organized over perfect any day!  : D
Got some great ideas?? We'd love to hear them...
