And Yet Another Key Principle In Organizing: Contain Your Items

by Vanessa Hayes

in Around the House,Organizing,Quick Tip Videos

I’ve done a couple of videos for you featuring my favorite organizing principles to help you organize your space. They were: Sort Like With Like and Assign A Home. Here is the last of the featured principles of organizing…Contain Your Items.  You’ll be amazed at how containing your like items in one space can significantly reduce your clutter.  My favorite?  Using containers within containers.  Think: drawer = container….box in drawer to hold socks = container within a container…sweet!!!!!  It really is a beautiful thing.  Check it out…you’ll see what I mean ;o)

Hello, where can I find the plastic containers? I live in Arizona.

Thanks!

Marcy,
Sorry for the late reply, but you can find those plastic containers at the Container Store. They come in 3-4 different sizes and are absolutely great under sinks, vanities and in the pantry or bathroom closets.
