5 Great Tips for Organizing--Even After That Big Trip!

So you just took the trip of a lifetime, but the packing beforehand and the aftermath of stuff that needs to be unloaded has left your room messy and your life feeling like you'll never have control of even the smallest fragment of what happens to you ever again.  Like your life has become a Bog of Worry and a Swamp of Slime, full of Stuff and Things that you are sinking into and can never hope to escape from again.  Don't worry, there's an easy way out! 

So  you just got back from that amazing vacation where you connected with friends, came together with a vibrant community, had time to spend focusing on nurturing yourself, and had an all around amazing time!!

But now, you're feeling isolated and lonely, and to top it off, there are piles of things waiting to be put away.

What to do???

(Oh, the humanity!  Look at all that stuff!!???!!!)

 

The things that are covering your room may feel like an impenetrable mass of doom that threatens to swallow you up if you look at it for too long, but never fear!  We have some great, easy steps to get you out of this mess!

 

 

#1 First of all, make your bed.  Small steps in the squalor can mean more than you expect.

(seriously, though, do this...)

 

Next, pile up that sh**!!  Piles make everything better.  Stack your crap as high as you possibly can without it falling over.  That will get it out of the way!  I promise!

 

If your cat is in the way, pile her up, too!

She'll love the way you show dominance over her, and incorporating her into the cleaning process is sure to make her feel loved and appreciated.  She will never jump onto the bed and meow at you at 5am again!

 

#6 Pile all the things!  Just move it to the nearest corner and pile it up!!!

 

Step 3: Pile some more stuff.  If you already have piles going from when you were packing and threw things around, as you see in the costumes and laundry here, just go with it and keep piling.  Notice how the laundry basket is artfully stacked here atop boxes.  I've masked the boxes with sequins and other dress up pieces, so you hardly notice any of it is there!

 

Next off, we will tackle closet space.  Here's your teaser:  For a great, well-organized closet that you can just wake up to and grab what you need, I have all the best tips!  Just look at how easily accessible all my work clothes, coats, and a few fun things are.  Extra storage in drawers  and hanging shelves with shirts crammed into them makes everything so much easier, even when you're cramped for space!

Thanks for reading!  I hope these tips have helped you in your journey to uncluttering your life and unpacking from trips!
