Home organization ideas that can be accomplished in a day or less to declutter, organize, and clean your home for maximum function in less time.
I’ve got the bug, y’all! The decluttering/purging/organizing/cleaning bug! The only problem is… having the time to do it all. Yeah, that little detail.
But now that the weekend is upon us and the holiday crazy has finally settled down, I thought it would be a good idea to share 10 organization projects we’ve done in the past that can be knocked out in a day or less.
If you feel overwhelmed about a big whole house declutter/organization overhaul, I have one great tip…
Start with just 1 drawer.
I know. That probably seems like nothing. But that’s the point.
Start by decluttering and organizing just one tiny drawer that has been driving you crazy lately, and I’ll bet that one little job that will take probably 45 minutes will snowball into you catching the organizing “bug” too.
And if not, well, hey. You organized a drawer. That’s still awesome. I hope these help!

I never want to give the impression that we have a completely clutter-free home organization because lemme tell ya… we’re always riding the struggle bus on the Hot Mess Express over here. Don’t ever compare your behind-the-scenes to our highlight reel.
We’re all just trying the best we can.
Every little closet and basket helps, so if I can help provide a small part of your peace, that’s all I could ever ask for. YOU are the reason we keep sharing and striving to do better. And I can’t begin to thank you enough for that.
So here’s to getting our lives semi-in-order and here’s to the power of a day’s accomplishment. You can do it. <3
I love organizing ALL THE THINGS.
Glad to know I’m not the only one with the bug 😃
Great tips Lauren! Going to work on a command center this weekend! Off to homegoods…😉
I really need to organize a guest bedroom. I have a multi entertaining Crosely set and didn’t know what to do with the records and cassette tapes to go with it. I never thought of storing them in the very roomy closet.
Love your blog and your printables. Speaking of Printables, can you tell me what program you use? I’ve been experimenting with Canva and Monkey Pic. Thanks
I use PicMonkey mostly!
Love your philosophy for this stressful time in our life. You have inspired me to tackle my desk now that I “get to” fit it into my schedule. I can still bingewatch The Crown while doing one drawer at a time with a large garbage bag nearby. We moved to this house six yrs ago and the desk was moved intact and has not been cleaned out since it was placed!
