With friends, family and festivities, there will be lots of picture taking in the coming weeks. Be prepared by having your camera readily accessible and fully charged. Also, keep extra batteries or the charger in the camera bag and place it by the front door so you don’t forget it on the way to parties and holiday activities.

Now is the perfect time to set up a system for your pictures so you can share them right away at the end of the season. For digital photos, here are a few of my favorite online sites that let you upload the photos and gives your family and friends the opportunity of getting their own prints.

• Shutterfly
• Snapfish
• Flickr
• Picasa

If you use a camera with film, drop off the rolls at a one hour development shop and make sure to pick them up right away so they don’t pile up. Label and store the photos in chronological order for now and you can quickly sort through them later.

Here’s a simple and efficient way to keep your fragile holiday décor safe from one year to the next.  This product features adjustable dividers to hold up to 80 ornaments of various sizes and the fabric lined trays protect them from scratches or getting smashed.

Remember, organized storage is key to helping make holiday “set up” and “tear down” easier every year!

Normally, I take organizing very seriously.  After all, it’s my passion!  However, these playful folders definitely caught my attention.  As long as you’re filing and not piling, it’s okay to have a little fun while organizing.

As our attachment and reliance on electronic gadgets grows, so do the cords that come with them! How do you keep them all organized?

• Use cable ties, such as the ones pictured above, and assign colors to different types of cables.
• Another neat organizer for your headphone cords is this very simple cable wrap.
• Label, label, label! It’s not just for file folders and bins - use a labelmaker to print easy-to-read names for each of your cables. This is especially useful if you have a lot of cords running together under a desk.
• If you’re in a household where each member has their own cell phone, digital camera, and iPod, it might be time to invest in a charging station. Not only does it hide the cords and keep them neat, it serves as a landing pad for all those small gadgets.

Sunday, November 15th - Downtown Seattle

1pm - 4pm

It’s time to clear out your closet clutter. As you assess your items, keep these questions in mind: Have you worn it in the past month? Do you love it? Does it fit? If you answered “no” to at least one of the questions, this event is for you!

Bring your clothes, outerwear, shoes and accessories to show and swap with others. We’ll have racks and tables to display your items. Anything that doesn’t find a new home will be donated immediately after the event. There will also be fun giveaways and a raffle!

This event has passed, but check out our Upcoming Events page!

There’s a saying, “The more things you own, the more they own you.”  This is so true!  Don’t be a prisoner to things.  Learn to let go and achieve more freedom and space.  Here are a few things to remember:

• If you’re not using it, you don’t know what to do with it, or if you don’t love it, it’s clutter.  Give the item away to someone who will use it or sell/donate it.
• How many things have you saved or put aside thinking that you’ll get it fixed, altered or cleaned?  Make a note on your calendar or to-do list to take action - or get rid of it.
• Everyone has items that hold sentimental value - old jewelry, holiday trinkets, vacation souvenirs, even hand-me-down clothes that are the wrong size or falling apart.  If the special item is taking up precious space, try keeping a memory of it by taking a photograph and putting it in a scrap book.
• Set a good example for your children.  Teach them that a clean and organized bedroom and playroom is important in keeping them organized in school and work.
