They say that outer order can contribute to inner calm, so for the sake of mental health, try some of these simple ways to get a little bit more organized — not totally change your life organized — but have an easier time of find your keys organized.
• Start At The Beginning: and organize your landing strip.
• Medicine Cabinet and other Small Spaces: Start small and with spaces you use all the time. This post has great tips for organizing your medicine cabinet and junk drawer.
• Keep a Household Calender: Whether it's on the computer or a physical one (we love the one pictured from Mibo — you can print it out!) having a calendar and using it is one of the best things I ever started to do. It was obvious but I didn't always keep up with it.
• Laundry: I'm currently missing a hamper, so you can only imagine the chaos happening on the floor of the closet! Get laundry organized following the inspiration and tips in this post.
• Uniform Hangers: A simple trick to organize the closet is to buy all the same kind of hanger (we love the wood ones from IKEA). In the process of re-hanging things, you can purge what you havent worn and also start the Abby System for weeding them out.
• Pegboard: Pegboard is a great tool for organizing the kitchen, the office or the garage/storage. If you have a bunch of loose items lying around or in drawers mixed together, consider pegboarding it all.
• Store the Right Things: In your closet, determine what you use least (but still use) and store it up high. Off the ground, not on a hanger, up up up.
• Hooks: In the bathroom for towels, in the kitchen, in the bedroom for clothes, by the door for keys, hooks are awesome.
• Buy Same Colored Organizing Supplies: This was one of our all time favorite tips from Benita Larsson of Chez Larsson — she buys all white boxes and magazine holders and bins and jars. This way no matter what the size, everything has a uniform look and keeps it looking very organized.
• Label Stuff: Group like things together in boxes, jars, canisters, etc. and slap a label on them. Office supplies, bathroom essentials, pantry items. You will feel more sane knowing where things are in clearly labeled containers.
• Get Motivated: Check out this post to help motivate yourself to take the small steps you need to build some momentum!

This is really making me want to splurge on all wooden hangers, rather than the mismatch of white, clear and wooden. :)
My only problem with those IKEA wooden hangers is that items with straps (tanktops, dresses) and items with wide necks don't fit. White plastic hangers tend to have a little hook/something to catch clothing so it doesn't fall off!
I LOVE the mirror! Any ideas where I can find it?!
Goodness me! Those shirts look great on the wooden hangers. We have about 20 odd wooden hangers and would love to convert my whole wardrobe. Problem is the wooden hangers tend to take so much more room than the plastics.
