Tips and Tricks to Make Life Easier
It's easier to be thankful when you're organized.
|
|
Here are 4 quick monthly tips from me, Molly Boren
of Simplicity Works Organizing Services. I hope they
make your life a little easier.
Remember: if it takes 2 minutes or less, do it now.
That is, read this now & then file or delete it. How ironic if it were to become e-clutter! |

Do Wrap
Here's a cool way to store gift wrap or other long, skinny things like posters or baseball bats (by way of the Amy Loves It blog). Pop them upright into a subdivided wine box. (Thanks, Canton Library staff, for reminding me of this great tip!) See more ideas here, some of them super-simple.

DON'T

Don't Celebrate Perfectly
'Tis the season when "done" is better than "perfect." Instead of toiling late into the night decorating, researching gifts, or writing cards: choose a few decorations, set a timer for 1 hour & make all of your gifting decisions, & send just a few cards. Then, your only remaining job will be to enjoy!

Get Artsy Easily
...without the hassle and expense of framing. Display art -- and change it quickly -- with a pants hanger and a hook! You could even use a removable adhesive Command hook to make it even easier. Great for switching holiday-themed art in and out, and for prolific child artistes.

GIVE |

Give on Tuesday
On #GivingTuesday (Dec 3), your donation to your favorite charity will not only contribute to that group's wonderful mission, but also set the tone for a holiday season of giving. See past newsletters for some great non-profits to support. Also, register your Amex card to get $10 back on Small Business Saturday!
