Organizing Home Office and Garage
HGTV does a makeover of a home office and a garage. By adding color and texture to the room, it downplays the masculine heavy oak furniture. Sorting through everything to establish what needed to be kept and creating categories for items was key. Installing home office storage fixtures was important as well. The garage was cluttered and filled with boxes and products. Shelving specialist Skip Barrett has a heavy-duty paneling system installed to help get items off the floor and take advantage of all that wall space. It's waterproof, impervious to insects and features horizontal grooves every three inches. Modular accessories can be added/removed as needed, so all agree it's a great long-term solution. Racks and wire baskets were installed to organize items in the garage.
Organizing Your Life from Home Made Simple
This Procter & Gamble monthly magazine site provides a section called "Organized Life". Learn how to organize your files, or under the kitchen sink, among other things. Remove everything from the cabinet and put your cleaning supplies to the test. Get rid of anything you haven't used in awhile or is half-empty or damaged. Oftentimes the chemicals in cleaning solutions lose their potency, so there's no point keeping that 3-year-old bottle of cleanser. Once you reduce the number of cleaning supplies, keep only what you really need to store underneath the kitchen sink. You're the best judge when it comes to knowing what you need, and a checklist of items one should keep under the kitchen sink is included. Cleaning the space under the sink is key. Adding a lazy Susan, some plastic containers, over-the-door organizers and plastic shelves, as well as a tip out tray from your counter is also suggested.
