How To Get Organized?
Hi everyone! Happy New Year 2015! I hope it’s not too late
to say it. We still in January anyway. Hehe... January is the first month of
the year. Top on
everyone's list in the new year: Get organized. It’s almost a month I haven’t post
anything in this blog. Since the school holiday is over, It’s time for me to
get back to work. You know as a teacher, everything is keep changing especially
the school timetable. So getting organized in the first month is quite
difficult (For me ;-p)
That’s the reason why I stop blogging
for a while. So for today’s blog post, I want to share about how to getting
organized. From Mr. Google, I found some tips from pros who know how to make organization
easy and beautiful without spending a fortune. I hope this help you and me to
organized our daily lives.;-)
1. Organize
for 15 minutes each day.
This could mean anything from sorting mail to throwing out mystery foods in the refrigerator. Just 15 minutes a day can make a huge difference over time. Make to do list for every urgent and not urgent work. Buy a small notebook and carry it everywhere you go or use your smartphone by setting an alarm to remind you any urgent things to do.

2. Download money
management program or apps
Money
Management Apps will make your financial life a million times easier to manage.
There are free apps and paid apps. You can have a look here http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/best-finance-money-management-apps/
3. Printable Calenders
For
calenders, you can have FREE printable calender planners here: http://www.kiddiefoodies.com/collections/get-organized-10-free-printable-calendars-planners-2015
4) Make a
simple sorting system for your papers.
Filing system is a great way to keep your papers. Don't forget to label them so it's easy to it later.
5) Your closet
Be honest
with yourself about whether things fit, or you like them or you'll ever
wear them again. If you have a friend you trust, try things on and get an
honest opinion.
Get those
big green garbage bags and fill them up with your
gently used clothing and shoes, handbags and accessories, ties, suits
whatever you've got. Take them to a local charity. Toss out torn, stained or
ripped items. Now you will have a much more manageable closet, and people in
need will have clothes to wear. Also, do
yourself a favor and buy some Ultra-Thin
Hangers -
you'll be amazed at the additional room you have.
6) Check
the expiration dates in your medicine cabinet and in your kitchen.
You'll be surprised how many things are not only out of date, but basically useless, too. Spices lose their flavors, pain relievers lose their efficacy. Get rid of any prescription drugs that you no longer need by taking them to a drop off location for proper disposal. Check canned goods, dry goods, cereals and frozen foods for expired items.

7) Craft Supplies
How about your craft supplies? Keeping those craft supplies organized can be difficult,
particularly when you are dealing with very small items. The solution? You just
need to pick up a few small plastic containers with lids and have a picture
frame handy (one of those thicker ones). You can label the boxes and then use
the frame to keep them all together, neat and organized. For more tips about crafts you can refer some tips from etsy
here:
Getting
organized takes patience, time and the ability to throw things away. Once you
get started, you'll feel so much better! Have a great day!

The price for this tool is quite expensive ( for me.;-) , So from YouTube I search for any substitute method to make the flowers. Instead of using millinery iron, you can use the kitchen tools! Yeah, sounds funny, but it works you know. You can have a look from the video below.
