Every once in awhile, I plan to post about ways you can organize in 5 minutes or less. This is my first "Got 5 Minutes" post!
Most of us don't have hours a day to spend organizing, and let's face it, most of us would rather spend our time doing a million other things even if we did have the time! We are all busy people. Some days it is hard to find time, but I can however, always find at least 5 minutes a day to organize. My theory is to do a little everyday (even if it is only 5 minutes) and eventually over time, I can see a huge difference! Just think, if you only organize for 5 minutes a day, in a months time, you will have organized for 2 hours and 30 minutes! A lot of organizing can be done in 2 hours and 30 minutes, my friends!
What I spent 5 minutes of time doing today, provided me with a whole drawer of empty space that I was able to better utilize!
Do you see that cabinet to the left of my stove?
All by using just two clear Command Hooks that I purchased from Target...
I was able to gain an empty drawer!
I just attached the two command hooks to the inside of the cabinet door and voila, I now have an empty drawer!
So, what did I put in the empty drawer? Dishtowels! My dishtowels had been living in the pantry because I had no room for them in the kitchen. They are now in a much more convenient location in that same drawer (which is right by my kitchen sink)!
It's amazing what you can accomplish in 5 minutes, isn't it?
There you have it! A smart and simple way to organize a space in 5 minutes!
Would love to hear from you? How have you organized a space in 5 minutes that made a big difference?
