Organizing with Color

If you are having trouble keeping track of who is coming and going in your family- try assigning a different color self-stick note (or colored ink) to each person to track activities on your calendar throughout the month. It will be immediately clear who has football practice or a doctor’s appointment, and your day-to-day routine will be easier to manage.

Whether you are trying to organize the bathroom or working on getting your mudroom under control, organizing with color can help significantly. By assigning each family member a different color, bin, folder, basket, towel, cup, etc., it will be easy for everyone to find their belongings. Most importantly, they will be able to clean up after themselves with no excuses!
