I cannot stress the importance of labeling for organizing purposes. Do you usually have small trinkets lying around that you can't seem to throw away but you don't exactly know where to keep them? Or do you have things that all fall under the same category but you can't seem to get them together in one easy-access pile? If the answer is yes, here's a small solution in four easy steps:
1) Identify the things you would like to organize and categorize them (ie. Pens, Ribbons, Notecards, etc.)
2) Find boxes for each category, preferably clear plastic boxes so everything looks uniform.
Note: Make sure your things fit inside the box and that the box can neatly be stacked in your drawers or shelves.
3) LABEL YOUR BOXES! You can use a DYMO label maker, like I do, or even tape you can write on. How you label your boxes is up to you for as long as you can understand it.
4) Put your things in the labeled boxes. Conquer the clutter!
Check out some of the boxes I've labeled with my Dymo M1880:
So far so good.
On a side note, don't limit your labeling skills to plastic boxes. Feel free to use your label maker on anything and everything around your home. Try the kitchen!
Label away mates!
Hey G!!! I love this entry!! Omg!! I'm so getting a DYMO!!
ReplyDeleteI'm cleaning my room this Holy Week and now only I'm realizing how much I NEED one!! Hahaha!
San mo nabili yung DYMO label maker? And how much ito?
ReplyDeleteGot it at National Bookstore! Around P200+. Make sure to get the right tape size.
ReplyDeleteLabeling is addicting. I use the Brothers one and I went nuts in the kitchen. Refil is mahal tho. After your post want to get a dymo! I like your line, "Conquer the clutter." I want to print out a giant billboard with that line and put it in my boys rooms.
