5 Tips for Getting Organised



Hello lovelies!

It's been a little while! We've been busy travelling Japan :) Now that we have started a new year, it's the perfect time to get organised for the coming year.

1. Buy a planner .
Write down any important events so you can be prepared for anything! This weekly diary is the cutest way to keep track of things. It comes with gold stickers too! So much love.

2. Declutter your life.
This is a huge task, so I would recommend separating this into visible clutter and hidden clutter. Visible clutter is simply getting rid of anything you didn't use or think about last year, and reorganising your space. Hidden clutter is more of a deep clean of all the things you tend to hide away in drawers or cupboards - you've got to go through them at some stage! Also, don't forget your tech items - removing unused apps from your phone, or files from your laptop or computer.

3. Go through your kitchen.
I'm guilty of buying random ingredients and products in the moment, only to completely forget about them after! Make sure to remove anything that has expired, and tidy up. You may just find yourself getting inspired to use up some of the things you find!

4. Create time-saving habits or routines.
Some people (like myself) find themselves way more productive following a daily routine. It helps me to remember to complete mandatory tasks, and settles me. Others prefer writing out to-do lists, or just create handy habits. For example, wiping down the counters after preparing a meal, or doing the dishes straight away. It's the little things that count!

5. Share your schedule with someone else.
It's great having your own planner, but it can be helpful to share your schedule with others. Serena and I use Google calendar to share our personal schedules, so we always know when the other is busy. Weekends can get pretty busy during the year, so it can help to prevent any double bookings if you share your calendar with your family.

These are a few little tips to help you start getting organised for the new year :) Please let us know what other tips you find useful in staying organised.
