By Akindman,
This
is the third of four articles this month regarding organization – January seems
like a great time to clean things up and get the New Year started off on the right foot. There are hundreds of thousands of folks
offering free advice, professional services, books, videos, TV specials on
getting one’s life and surrounds organized.
My Google search on ‘organize your home’ yielded more than 54 million
results. Searching the same topic under books on Amazon.com yielded 652 books.

From
the lessons learned department – the easy part is getting things where they
belong and the hard part is getting the family to help maintain it! Learning new habits is a true challenge for
most of us, especially when we have so many bad habits when it comes to putting
things away – in their proper place.

Getting
your house organized will go a long way to maximizing efficiency. There is no
single right way to do it: The trick lies in finding the way that works best
for you.

Here
are a few of the Web Sites that I reviewed and believe you might find helpful
in your home organizing endeavors:
Organized
Home - Clean House, Cut Clutter, Get Organized at Home! (http://organizedhome.com/)
HGTV
Start at Home (http://www.hgtv.com/topics/organization/index.html)
- Simple storage solutions and 1-day
projects.
Unclutter
(http://unclutterer.com/2008/05/27/where-to-start-organizing-your-home/)
suggest four ways to get started: 1) Start by organizing the area you first see
in the morning; 2) Start by organizing the area you first see when you come home
after work; 3) Start with the area of your home that makes you seethe; and 4)
Start at the top and work your way down.
While
reading magazines, paper or browsing the internet, I am always looking for neat
ideas and that might me. Here are a few images that might appeal to you:
