How to Organize Every Space in Your House in 8 Simple Steps (3 of 5)

Start storing items in their appropriate containers 

Now comes the fun part—storage! You can start to see the fruits of your labor pay off once you get to this step, as things will really start to come together visually. When it comes to storage options, you can go the fancy route and get expensive bins. But you can also use what you have and make it work. Some of the best organizational systems can be achieved using something as simple as shoe boxes. Feel free to dress up and decorate simple boxes to keep your budget intact and your system cute. 

Label everything

It may not seem necessary at first, but one of the key steps in good organization is labeling. It will ensure that you know exactly where each item is contained, and you won’t have to go searching for things later. Having labels will also help you memorize your organizational categories, as your brain will get used to reading those labels. This will help you later on to quickly know exactly where to place new items after a purchase. Also, labeling is just fun and a rewarding part of the otherwise tedious steps in organization.
