Don’t consider the laundry finished until all the clothes are put away. This is something that Janine Adams, a certified professional organiser, always tells her clients and reminds herself. Whether the clothes have been stranded in the basket after a laundry cycle or tossed in a pile after a last-minute outfit change, they need to be dealt with before you turn in for the night. Otherwise, you’ll leave them there for way too long and end up with a bunch of wrinkled items. Having trouble putting everything away? Adams says that’s a sign it’s probably time to let some of them go.
Hanging up clothes will be a much faster task when you don’t have to untangle empty hangers. Instead of leaving them in your closet, keep them organised on a nearby hanger organiser. This will also motivate you to get to the task at hand, since the hangers are right there, just waiting to be used.
