Savvy Storage – Our Contributor’s Favourite Storage Tricks

I am a hands down compulsively clean person and an obsessive organizer.

Keeping an organized household starts with tidying up after oneself. If everyone would pick up after him or herself a home can remain fairly tidy on a day to day basis. Organizing and staying organized is key to ensuring your storage areas are being used most effectively. Household routines, keeping on top of cleanliness and avoiding clutter are also ways to stay organized.
