Pretty Neat Winner

You had lots of great tips for keeping your house/office Pretty Neat so I wanted to highlight some of them here.

• Toni said, “My tip – file folder and file storage and file away important paper immediately.. As soon as it comes in the mail.. either label it in your head to toss, recycle, shred OR do what ever it is – if it’s a bill – pay it, if it’s an application – fill it out. Put in envelope – postage and get it OUT. Then file the rest in appropriate folders. You can use a milk crate or filing cabinet or one of those accordian folders.”
• Gianna said, “Clean when the kids are asleep.”
• Jessica said, “My best tool is my calendar posted in the laundry room. I keep track of everyones appt, practices, and work schedules.”
• Veronica said, “My best tip is to install shelves in the garage. This keepa a lot of stuff off the floor allowing you more space.”

The winner of the Pretty Neat book was entry #31! GiantSis, our winner said, “I love decorative boxes and baskets. They help me sort things as needed and hide the clutter and junk until I am ready to sort through it. Plus, they liven up all my boring black furniture!”

Thanks for sharing your tips!
