Clutter and Laundry Organizing
by: The Organizer

Hi Denise,

Most times when you are overwhelmed by stuff, you need to declutter. You can find helpful tips in my article on decluttering.

It's nice to have 2 large closets in a bedroom. I wonder if you are using them to their greatest advantage. That's where I would start with organizing your bedroom. You'll find specific tips in my room by room section on organizing closets. You might want look into closet systems before you get started.

As far as the laundry goes, I suggest designating a place for the kids to place their dirty clothes and train them to put them in the laundry hamper. Even toddlers can learn to do that and it makes them feel special to have a task. There is a great selection of hampers available from over the door clothes bags to go in a closet to laundry sorters. With four children, it would be helpful if they could sort their clothes when they put them in the hamper.

I hope this helps.
