Clutter-Free Holiday Countdown
September 16, 2010
It’s hard to believe that the holidays are just around the corner! And I don’t know about you, but I find it’s tough to pull of a stress-free holiday season without a lot of planning. Thankfully, I found this post over at Simple Organized Living!
Here’s part of the post:

Thanks Eva!
A big part of holiday de-stressing is to plan ahead. Anything you can do ahead of time is better. I often do a bunch of baking now and put it in the freezer.
Then, when I’m invited to a holiday party, I just defrost and go!
What a great idea Andrea! I’ve been baking with the apples from our tree. I think I’ll freeze a few pies and things now for the holidays!
Thanks for sharing this, Eva. Every year Christmas sneaks up on me! I showed this article to my sisters too. They enjoyed it.
Add a set of selves, just extra holiday items such as gift wrap, table ware, special holiday food items. At the end of the holiday, you can either keep these shelves and use for future organization or take them down and store or donate.
Just adding one set of shelves, whether it be a wall unit or floor based shelving, it will eliminate clutter by having a place for everything and everything in it’s place.
