Quick Tip: When I am helping clients edit and organize their belongings, inevitably we will stumble upon something that doesn’t have a clear home – A library book that needs to be returned, a birthday present for a party next week, a shirt that needs to be returned. I suggest setting up a large bin or basket for this purpose and storing it in a convenient location near your entry closet or front door. Since we don’t have an entry closet, we put a pretty handled basket under a side table near our front door. I call it the “Outbox” since it contains items that need to go out of our home. It has made a world of difference not to have all of those random things floating around our house!
