With all of the indoor activities that come with cooler weather, what better time than now
to get your home ORGANIZED? After all, the first week of October is “National Get
Organized Week!” And with Divine Consign’s selection of goodies, it’s never
been easier and more convenient!
Here are our tips (along with some featured
store items!) on getting organized. Ready? Here we go!
1.
Use
traditional items in nontraditional ways – Are the shelves of your linen
closet caving in? Need a place to display all the extra arts-and-crafts your
kids have been doing this month? Has your guest bedroom become a storage space
for your out of season clothes and shoes? A china cabinet/display hutch would
work marvelously for any of these problems! Towels, artwork, or shoes can be displayed
in the upper glass cabinets. Extra bedding, craft supplies, and/or clothing can
be stored in the drawers below. Bet you never knew how versatile that old china
cabinet could be!

2.
Make the
most out of every piece of furniture in your home – Why go with just a headboard when you can rock a headboard with built in shelves and drawers
that ultimately saves space elsewhere in your home?! I mean, everybody needs a
bed, right? Look for beds, desks, and other furniture items that may serve a dual
purpose—you’ll be thanking yourself later when your home is clutter-free.

3.
Under-bed
storage doesn't stop at plastic bins – I’m sure you are all well aware of the
wonder that is under-bed storage. Seriously, it’s pretty much the smartest
thing since sliced bread. You can store clothes, shoes, outerwear, toys, or any
number of items in long, shallow plastic bins so they are perfectly accessible
and (even more perfectly) out of the way. But
have you ever thought about storing a guest bed under your bed? Duh!
Trundle beds are a genius way to be visitor-ready when your in-laws just happen
to show up a week early (sorry, you’re on your own with that part…). Then you
just tuck it away when you’re done! Guest bedroom problem = solved.

4.
When it
come to drawers, you can never have too much of a good thing – If you are
going to by a dresser, buffet, console, or desk, make sure you are getting as
much storage/organizational space from it as possible. Drawers are a great way
to separate different types of items, so you’ll always know where to find them.
At Divine Consign, we always have great deals on those perfect items to keep
your home organized!
