Trash don’t stash

August 1, 2023/in Tip of the Month/by Janine Cavanaugh, CPO®

Have you heard this phrase before, “Trash it don’t stash it!”? It’s great organizing advice that can be applied to both paper and stuff. However, please recycle instead of trash.

Here are three blogs that will help you do just that.

  1. Paper, what to keep and for how long
  2. 10 Things you can automatically get rid of
  3. 10 Not scary things to toss

toilet paper

Edit the excess

July 1, 2023/in Tip of the Month/by Janine Cavanaugh, CPO®

How much excess did you accumulate during the pandemic? Do you still have cupboards full of toilet paper, hand sanitizer, and disposable gloves? If so, consider donating your excess to a homeless shelter, food pantry, senior center, or animal shelter. Then take a long, hard, objective look at any other piles of excess products that are cluttering your home, and edit them. If you need suggestions on how to recycle them, email me.

yard sale
July 23, 2022/0 Comments/in Newsletter/by Janine Cavanaugh, CPO®

How are you enjoying your summer!

For me, summer has been filled with travel, family, friends, beach, and home improvement projects. We got our hardwood floors refinished. That means every single thing in 5 rooms of our home needed to be removed. Everything!

In preparation for the big clean out, we decided to sell some furniture and decor. We hosted a yard sale at our house with my sister. She downsized and closed an online shop, so she had a ton of things to sell.

The gift of time

December 1, 2021/0 Comments/in Tip of the Month/by Janine Cavanaugh, CPO®

Organizing tipDid you know, on average, people take 3 times longer to finish a task than they had planned. So, give yourself the gift of time this holiday season. Time to organize. Time to declutter. Time to enjoy life.
