I am officially diaper bag free so I'm down to one purse and a backpack every now and then when I have to tote my laptop along for coffee shop working.
As with life with kids, my purse is currently a catch all for snacks, toys, my wallet, appointment cards, shopping bags, garbage and so much more. Sometimes I have no idea I have so much in there!
Despite the mess that is in my purse, I think today's task should be quite easy to get finished. I actually just purchased a new backpack from Mountain Equipment Co-op on clearance so I actually have to add a few things to it! (Pens, notebook, ear buds...etc.)
While I don't have many tips for purse organization, I think a purse organizer from Amazon.ca like this would be wonderful:
There are many different styles and material!
So, how messy is your purse or bag? How do you keep it organized?

I am so ready to take down the Christmas decorations! Enough is enough of the festive “clutter” I say! 🙂
Even though this was our third Christmas in our “new” home, there was still a lot of stuff that didn’t get put out. Simply because I didn’t know where to put it, but also because I just didn’t want a lot of stuff out! I’ll definitely be doing some decluttering.
I keep everything (knick knacks, ornaments, garlands, stockings…etc.) in two large bins. Plus our Christmas tree that fits neatly into its own box. Two boxes is enough stuff for me! So, if I buy something new, something old has to leave!
While I do manage to cram everything into the bins, I did find some great Christmas organization ideas:
Do you have any Christmas organization tips? When do you typically put away all your decorations?

Today's task for the Simply Clutter Free Challenge is one that has needed some attention for quite some time in our home. Toys. We're going to work on organizing and purging the toy situation!
I'm going to try to involve the kids. Especially my oldest, but she tends to get attached to everything. I will give her some guidance and encourage her to really choose the toys she actually plays with and loves. I also think I will be purging some, but storing others so I can rotate them.
Download and print the organizing calendar here.

Here we are, Day 2 of the Simply Clutter Free challenge! Since yesterday's task may have been a doozy, today's task is quite a bit simpler. (Yahoo!)
Today, we're going to evaluate our cleaning supplies. Pull out all of your cleaners and tools and make a note of items you need to replenish. This is important to do because we're going to clean as we go along each day. It's no fun realizing you're out of something halfway through the task!
I'd love to know your favourite cleaners and tools in the comments below, but in case you're curious, here are mine! However, I have intentions of making my own all-purpose cleaner this year!
