HALLOWEEN STORAGE & ORGANIZATION

B.O.O.!

Buy, Organize and Optimize….

When the parties are over and the holidays end make sure you have a place to store and preserve those special costumes and decorations you worked so hard to find and buy.

And because we are all going green you can reuse or recreate your costume next year. For Halloween, keep all the expensive makeup or costume pieces you've purchased and find a container that you can label and tuck away until the spooky season rolls around again.

Enjoy Halloween, play safe and indulge that sweet tooth!

ORGANIZING YOUR EMAIL INBOX

Your EMAIL INBOX should be a place where your emails come into and leave as fast as possible.

If there is an email in your inbox the only reason it should be there is because it hasn't been looked at yet or you have yet to organize it in the manner you've decided. Make a disciplined habit of filing your emails from your inbox into designated saved folders and file anything and everything you desire as long as those specific emails have been taken care of and completed.

Having an organized inbox that has very little emails in it will be a rewarding and fulfilling experience every time you turn your computer on. Keep the inbox contents to a minimum and make sure to be constantly creating new folders as your business and personal life grows and changes.

MAKE THAT BED!

An old wives tale states..."Your house is clean when your dishes are done and your bed is made."

Now that your dish rack has been eliminated and your dishes are put away, as soon as you slip out of bed in the morning, take 2 minutes to straighten your covers and place your pillows against the headboard..

Making your bed is the easiest and quickest way to eliminate disorganization atop the largest focal point in the most tranquil room of your home

WALLET ORGANIZATION

An organized wallet is the sign of someone who treats money with respect.

Take a few minutes on a Sunday night, before you start your week, and go through your wallet or purse to shred any unnecessary items including receipts.

Keep only the necessities so every time you open your wallet you will feel in control of your handheld finances.

OWNING YOUR OWN BEACH

Your own stretch of sand…

Summer is here and we are ready to soak up the sunshine and warm weather! Before you pack that little beach bag with oversized towels, take a look in your linen closet and grab an old flat sheet you don't use very often anymore. The uglier and more colorful…the better!

When you reach the beach , stake your beach front property claim with your new Beach Sheet! The sheet minimizes the volume of items in your beach bag, gives you more usable space than just towels in the sand, and if you have little ones, the sheet is easy for them to spot in case they have to run back up to grab their shovel or juice box from the cooler.

ELIMINATE THAT DIRTY DISH RACK

An organized kitchen is as easy as rinse and store…

A quick and easy way to keep a tidy kitchen is to toss that dish rack! Whether it is a cute wooden fold out or the big plastic utility bin…they take up a tremendous amount of counter space and dishes are not meant to have a rest stop between the sink and the cabinet.

When you use a glass or a plate, take the extra moment to dry them thoroughly with a clean, cloth dish towel and place your items right back in the cabinet for storage.

Your counter and mind will be instantly clutter free!

SPRING CLEANING TIPS

Spring is here so let your mind clear...It is time for spring cleaning! Here are a few steps to making the summer kick off to a relaxing start.

When bringing the lighter clothes to the front of the closet or drawers really take a look at the sweaters and long sleeve shirts you didn't wear during the winter. Will you ever really wear them again?

Get rid of boxes of items purchased or gifted from the holidays that do not have an extended warranty. No you are not going to need these boxes again.

Have a cool and comfortable swim suit ready...summer is almost here!

All love from the O.C.D. Experience!

VALENTINE'S DAY FUN

Valentine's Day is right around the corner...while we are all watching our funds or pinching our pennies what is a better way to show love than:

TOGETHER, organizing each other's underwear drawer.

If it' got a hole it's got to go!

If you swear you're gonna find the missing sock from 4 months ago in the next load of laundry...congratulations, you've found a new dust rag.

For your Valentine you could slip in a new set of sexy lingerie to replace the old.

Also, adding a candle to the room with a scent that you both enjoy could be a great way to enhance the mood of relaxing and cleaning.

Happy Valentine's Day from the O.C.D. Experience.
