weekend project
| September 11, 2009 | Posted by Linsi Brownson under organization, Projects |
One thing that helps minimize the stress that seems to come with the changing of the season is to get organized. Spending a weekend cleaning out closets, pantries and other areas of disarray will make things easier as your schedule gets busier.
Labeling is an easy way to keep everything in order once you’ve done the dirty work. Martha Stewart has some great templates for everything from food labels to birthday charts.
Here are my favorites.
keep track of food freshness so you can just grab and go
make recycling easy for everyone
plan lunches (or dinners) easily with a magnetic food chart
