I have been trying to decide lately if I want to return to a paper calendar. One reason I haven’t is because I could not find one that fits all my needs. I think the search may be over.

This Week’s Find is the Simplified Planner from Emily Ley. It’s smaller than the original so it can fit in a purse and a new page design that is easy to use and read. The assortment of accessories are an added bonus to an already great design.

Can’t wait to order my new planner and get back to a paper…how I have missed you!

Organizing Find Of The Week

http-::www.hsn.com:products:embassy-12-sheet-microcut-electric-paper-shredder:7657910

 

When I go to a client’s house to set up and organize a home office the first question I ask is do you own a shredder? Not just for the obvious reason which is identity theft but a shredder will help keep your office free of unwanted paper and mail.

The key to keeping any office organized is cutting down on paper clutter and that is why a shredder is essential.

The Embassy Shredder from HSN shreds 12 sheets of paper and credit cards and comes in multiple colors. It also has wheels so it can be moved from room to room.

Don’t let shredding become an “I’ll do it later job”. End paper clutter, shred it!

Make Better Use Of Your Cabinet Space

http-::www.decorpad.com:photo.htm?photoId=121446

One way to make the most use of the space on your shelves and in your cabinets is to be able to see everything. When you can see what you have it prevents over buying and clutter.

Here is a simple solution to  this problem. Install pull out drawers inside your cabinets and shelves. These drawers will keep bathrooms, kitchens, pantries and closets organized.
