It's time to get organized now that the new agendas for 2016 are out. I love to plan ahead for my blog and business. I previously blogged about how I organize my Lilly Pulitzer planner but you can use this guide to organize any planner.
I love my Lilly Pulitzer agenda! The one I have here is the jumbo size - it's perfect for me as a busy mom, business owner, and blogger. I can easily organize everything I need to do for work as well as all the kids' activities and all of our family activities. How do I organize it? I love these Staedtler pens - they have a super fine 0.3mm tip and don't dry out easily. I highlight with Sharpie's retractable markers and I love using washi tape throughout to block out dates for certain activities.
For a detailed look at what the whole agenda looks like - I have a blog post dedicated to an overview of the agendas.
Dates worth celebrating are all written down so I don't forget.
My monthly view is color coded so I can see what I need to do for who at a quick glance.
And I love the lined note pages in the back for brainstorming blog post ideas.
I love having a lot of different herbs and spices to cook and bake with. However, they all come in various containers which makes my cabinet look like a mess and it's hard to find the ingredients I'm looking for. Here are a few pretty ways to organize your spices to make life in the kitchen much easier.
I love baskets. Really, who doesn't? They help you organize a space and easily keeps everything in order. I have baskets for towels, blankets, toilet paper, cleaning supplies, toys, knick knacks, scarves, you name it - I've got it. It makes picking up after 3 kids a lot easier and because they come in all sizes, shapes, and colors, there's something for every room in the house! Here are some of my favorite ones:
