RESET CHECKLIST:
Getting organized is half the battle, keeping it organized is the other half.
Here is a reset guide for you with tips and tricks:
Rule of thumb
Please think about every item that enters your home. Will it serve you? Do you need it, or want it, does it make you or someone in your home happy or will it collect dust in a corner.
Remember, you are not obligated to take anything you do not want
Resetting is a great way to weekly update and keep up with the organized spaces in your home.
Once a week, take stock in each area of what needs to be bought, or refilled.
Kitchen
Refill/ check dish soap and dish detergent
Refill spices
Refill decanted food
Check back stock before grocery shopping
Make grocery list of items that need to be replaced
Re organize junk drawer/ command center (sharpen pencils, discard old pens)
MUD ROOM / COAT AND SHOE AREA
Take stock of the amount of shoes and jackets in the mud room or by the front door or garage, where ever shoes and jackets are kept. Keep only 1-2 pairs of shoes and 1-2 jackets per person and put the others in bedrooms or hang in closets
