When it comes to home organization, there’s a common belief that a completely organized home must always be perfectly clean and tidy.

But let’s be real, is that even possible? Life happens, and a little bit of clutter and messiness is a natural part of everyday life. So, instead of striving for cosmetic perfection, let’s focus on functional organization.

First, let’s define what we mean by “functional organization.” It’s about creating systems and methods that work for you and your lifestyle. It’s about knowing where things are and being able to access them easily. It’s about creating a space that functions well for you and your family. It’s not about having a showroom-worthy home, but rather a home that works for you.

One of the biggest challenges to functional organization is the idea that it’s a one-time task. We often think that once we’ve decluttered and organized our spaces, we’re done. But the truth is, organization is an ongoing process. Life is constantly changing, and so should our organization systems. It’s important to regularly assess our spaces and make adjustments as needed.

Another misconception about organization is that one size fits all. We often see pictures of perfectly organized homes on social media and in magazines and think, “I should be able to do that too.” But the truth is, different people have different lifestyles, habits, and needs. What works for one person may not work for another. It’s important to find personalized solutions that work for you.

Lastly, organization is not just about physical objects and space.

It’s also about organizing our time and energy and taking control of our mental space. It’s about setting boundaries and creating a balance that works for us. It’s about being mindful of how we use our time and energy and making conscious choices about what is important to us.

In conclusion, let’s stop striving for cosmetic perfection and instead focus on functional organization. Let’s focus on organization that looks good but is also useful. Remember, it’s an ongoing process and it’s important to find personalized solutions that work for you. And don’t forget, organization is not just about physical objects and space, it’s also about organizing our time, energy, and mental space. Let’s embrace the messiness of life and create a home that works for us.

That’s where our labels come in. We truly believe that a functionally organized home is one where things just work well. The coffee pods are near the coffee maker. The tinfoil is near the oven. And the food in our fridge is labeled with eco-friendly, biodegradable, and compostable labels which allow us to not only organize our food but also organize our clean-up efforts. Dissolving labels truly help us save money and time but also keep us organized. I don’t know about you but when things get cluttered or messy, my sanity slips a bit.

Take back your home from the nasty clutterbug. Let us know how it worked for you!
