Organizing 101: Hitting the Clutter Hotspots

Virtual through the Winnetka Women's Exchange

We begin by learning about the different types of organizers and asking “What type of Organizer am I?”. Next we pinpoint our “hotspots”. We then move on to what a Control Center is and how to set one up in our home. After that we address some other common trouble spots like organization of Children’s art supplies and artwork, as well as toys and other areas. We close with some tips on how to maintain the organization and keep the systems of organization in place.
