Under the Kitchen Sink

Under the Kitchen Sink

You might think you have everything including the kitchen sink in your home both literally and figuratively.

So whether it is the top of your sink or under the kitchen sink, Getting It Together will provide you with 5 Top Tips to get it organized and stay that way.

#1. Make sure your kitchen sink is clean and shiny before going to bed. There is nothing worse than waking up in the morning and facing a sink filled with dirty dishes. This will put you behind for your new day. It will take less than 15 minutes right after dinner to do this task.

#2 Have a container by your sink for all of your cloths, brushes and soap. It looks messy if they are just hanging around by the side of the sink.

Better yet put them under the kitchen sink if you have room…which you will have by the time you have finished organizing under there!

#3 Getting It Together under the sink is a 15 minute task. Pull everything out onto the kitchen floor. Make sure your children are out of the room.

#4 Give it a good scrub under the sink. Check for any leaks or rusty pipes. Be sure to call your plumber if you find any.

#5 Get a container for all of your cleaning supplies. Put back only the ones that you use, like, and have enough product in them to make it worth your while. Toss the rest. Have another container for your rags and one for any miscellaneous items. Set up a good system for your garbage and recycling. Keep it small and compact so you can empty it often. This really cuts down on any odors in the kitchen.

If you have small children at home you may choose to put your cleaning supplies up in a higher cupboard. If this is not possible then be sure to use a safety lock on the cleaning supplies cupboard door.

Special Collections and how to organize them

Special collections.

We all have them. What do we do with them?

Check out this video on special collections and how to organize them.

What collection do you have?

Did you start it or did someone else start it for you. Do you wish you did not have that collection?

Collections that were once important and special in our lives may not have the same purpose later on in life. It is okay to pass those collections on. Just ask yourself the question “what is the purpose of keeping this collection?”

Please share your best collection story.

I have a few. One of my clients had hundreds of salt and pepper shakers. They were EVERYWHERE in her kitchen. Can you imagine the work in keeping them dusted?

Good thing I know how to sell my clients “special collections.” Do you have one you would like to sell?
