I’ve always wanted to be a mom… but I got much more than I bargained for! I’m a mother of 3, an accountant, taxi driver, housekeeper, wife of almost 14 years, chef, organizer, teacher, volunteer, comforter, nurse, photographer, sister, daughter, blogger, entertainer, veteran, christian, and so much more! I love all of my jobs dearly! But, the job I’m sharing with you today is blogger!
I have a cleaning & organizing blog called A Bowl Full of Lemons. I started my blog at the end of November, 2010 to share my love for all things organizing & cleaning. I am a Shaklee distributor as well… and my blog is where I show how I use my Shaklee products.
The thing I pride myself most with is reusing what I have, instead of purchasing everything new (although I do love to shop for organizing items).
Some great tips to organize on a budget are:
1. Go around your home and collect all containers, baskets, boxes, etc… not being used & put them in a specific place just for “organizers”. Then when you need something organized, you have your own “shop” to choose a container from. I hosted a 21 day organizing challenge where I had everyone do this. They used the containers through out the challenge.
2. Use old priority boxes to create magazine storage boxes.
3. Use cardboard shoe boxes, check book boxes, etc… to organize.
I have LOTS more tips & ideas on my blog. I also started a new weekly challenge that will help get your life organized! The main goal for you is to clear your life of clutter. To do this, you only need to take one step at a time. Clean out one drawer at a time. You will get there and your life will be much easier because of it!
