In the News...
Take a few minutes to read Lori’s most recent Dayton Daily News column articles to see if they can help you jumpstart an organizing project you have been putting off.
Don’t Forget the Big Guy (or Gal)...
Boss’s Day is Oct. 16th, 2013. Give your boss a clutter-free gift this year to encourage them to keep their office in order. Chances are your boss doesn’t need another trinket or knick knack on their desk which only collects over time and can cause a lack in productivity.
A specialty cup of coffee, a favorite sweet treat, or lunch away from the office are just some of the ways to show your appreciation for the great boss they are without adding clutter to their office.
Stop the Hang Up...
An empty hanger doesn’t look all that threatening, but when all of the empty hangers are rounded up you quickly see that sometimes they can take up several feet of valuable closet rod space.
Purchase a hanger caddy to hold your unused hangers and remove those not in use. You can also use a box to collect wire hangers, which can be recycled at the nearest dry cleaners.
