Default Re: I am not an organized person

I understand the clothes. Let's see...my son's dresser broke (not his fault, just old) so his clothes are all in one rubbermaid bin. I don't care if he folds it or not, just keep it off the floor. My two youngest daughters were playing dress up with the regular clothes to the point it was just clothes everywhere. I cut them back to the necessities (so easy in summer) and put their clothes in a laundry basket it my room. They have undies in their drawers, that's it. It's a pitb, but better than clothes everywhere. My oldest daughter is the only one with clothes in her dresser that she folds. It's not perfect, but it works.
Toys...large rubbermaid bins. Everything sorted out. They get one or two at a time, depending on which ones. Nothing else till they trade. I have a smaller bin that I use to store things that end up out of the proper sort. A few times a year I take them all out and put things away nicely again. 4:00 here is clean up time. All toys cleaned up by them. They can play again later, but with our evening of dinner, some tv, and bedtime, they usually don't make much of a mess. The toy bins are in my son's closet b/c he doesn't have any clothes to hand anyways. His clothes bin is just under his loft right now. But even if you keep some toy bins in the dining room, that will look much neater than toys scattered about. And hello, it's easy....lol. I need easy right now. So do you. Start simple. Don't get perfectionist. Bins don't need photos of contents with caligraphy labels. Pop the lid edge up, take a peek...now you know what's in there. Or....(like I've done for seasonal clothes storage) a post it note duct taped to one side.
