Winter/ Summer Clothing Swap

by Toni Herrbach

This month we're talking about getting organized by spring cleaning, and for me personally, that means dedicating 15 minutes a day to cleaning an area of my home. For my family one of the biggest spring cleaning jobs is to swap out winter and summer clothes.

With the past week bringing 85 degree weather, I think it is safe to say that winter is probably over in Florida. We do get a little winter weather every year, so I have to store long pants, jackets, and a few sweaters for the two days it gets below 50 degrees here.

Spring Cleaning: Organized in 365

by Toni Herrbach

It's March which means many of us start our spring cleaning routine. In Florida that means cranking up the air conditioner to clean the oven, but that's not my point. I've talked in previous Organized in 365 posts about using fifteen minute increments to get things done. I cannot tell you how effective this is over time.
