maker? Do you even have a label maker? If you do not have one, you are missing out on the glory!
For a professional organizer, a label
maker is an essential “must have”, “cannot live without” tool. Quite frankly, it is an addiction for most of us. a crazy love for a tool that makes us jump for joy to see a fully label storage system.

So what does one do with a label maker?
Well...you could:
Label your shelves in the kitchen
cabinets so the family can all put the dishes and utensils away in the correct
places. Making it easy for everyone to participate in the household chores and maintenance is one of the keys to a well organized home and frees up your time
Label your refrigerator (my friends
mock me regularly for this one).
Indicate where you would like the milk, eggs, condiments, and left overs
stored. By labeling the fridge, you ensure
time is not wasted looking for items and those lost leftover science experiments
are less likely to occur. Another
bonus, making a grocery list is a breeze because you will know exactly what you
have on hand with a quick glance.
Label your pantry. Create a section for each food type: soups, crackers. canned tomatoes, canned vegetables, pasta, etc... Just has having the fridge well organized, having the pantry in order will also allow for quick decisions when it comes to menu planning and making a grocery list.
Label your linen closet shelves to
make put away a quick and efficient. Family members can find what they need
without ripping the shelves apart and you can get assistance with putting
laundry away because they will all know where to put the items.
Label the inside of your dresser
drawers, especially the ones in the kids rooms so they can be self-reliant and put
away their items when clean as well as get themselves dressed in the mornings.
Label your storage bins so you know
what is inside and do not have to open each one.
Basically, if you are storing
something, you can label it!
