10 easy ways to organize your home by tomorrow

Consider all of the activities you will want to do in the space, and designate certain areas for those things. Whether it’s eating, sleeping, lounging and so on, they should all take place in different areas of your home.

Your bedroom should feel soothing, not cluttered and stressful. Limit your nightstand accessories to a jewelry dish, fresh flowers and a scented candle. Add a photo frame for a sentimental touch.

In addition to its straight-up eye-candy appeal, beautiful light fixtures brighten up a room and will inspire you to keep it clean.

Instead of a traditional coffee table, use a tufted ottoman with available interior storage. You’re never wiping sticky fingers off a glass surface or worrying about kiddos bumping into corners, and it gives you the easy access to throw in toys or other items when a guest is on her way over.

It might sound simple, but you shouldn’t underestimate the power of swapping out your bedding in the winter. There’s nothing better than a substantial comforter and cozy bedding to keep warm during the colder months, and you’ll be surprised how refreshing such a small change can be.

Don’t allow drink coasters, a remote and coffee table books to just take up space. Use a tray to designate space for all those odds and ends—you’ll instantly feel better.

Bar carts have become the new way to dress up your space while still streamlining your cabinet and countertop storage. With tiny options that are easy to tuck away or pull out while entertaining, we love the flexibility that a bar cart brings when organizing your space.

Add a playful and highly visual element—such as numbers, letters or shapes—to encourage organization skills in your wee ones.

Natural elements like a jute rug, bamboo shades or a wood vase foster an inner sense of calm and peace because of the ties to the great outdoors. Introducing a little greenery to your space will only make you feel better.
