:: so as you may know, one of my big resolutions for 2008 is to be more organized. living in clutter isn’t fun, and it’s stressful and i don’t need that in my life. so, i’m resolving to do a better job. when i say year of organization.. i really mean year, as it may take me all year to do it, but at least there is a goal, right? :::: so my first bit of organization to share or as i am calling it organization no. 01, was to organize my holiday decorations. here are a few things that helped me do this.

*holiday* organization no. 01
[01] buy many tupperware bins
[02] fill with christmas decorations [an obvious step]
[03] pick out a color for ‘christmas’ [i chose red]
[04] use a red ribbon to label all christmas boxes
[05] create a label for holiday and label contents of box [i found it very handy to list box 1 of 5, so i knew there were actually 5 christmas boxes in our basement]
[06] tie label to box with holiday color [red ribbon]ahhh! i feel better about unpacking christmas next year already..
