So today is the day - we are leaving for Noosa and I couldn't be more excited about spending some relaxing and fun time with my loved ones! This is actually our first family vacay outside of Melbourne. Throughout the year, we are lucky to have use of my parent's holiday house on the Great Ocean Road, so we spend a big chunk of our summer there, and weekends where possible. So, the challenge for me on this trip was having to pack for the 4 of us with a small amount of space! Usually we load up the car to the max, but this time of course suitcase space was limited.
How to plan your week
Being an organised person has a lot to do with planning time effectively, and I am a big fan of planning out my week and month. When we write down our to-do's, they become more imprinted in our brains and will actually remind us to do it. There are big benefits to physically recording what you need to do.
Creating a memory box to store your keepsakes
If you've ever done a big declutter of your personal items, you would probably be able to relate to the fact that it can be very difficult to decide what keepsakes to hold onto, and what to throw out. Although I consider myself pretty ruthless at getting rid of clutter, I definitely like to hold onto things with emotional value. Today I'm showing you how we store these precious items.
Dealing with the paper clutter
It is incredible to think about the amount of paperwork we receive on a daily basis. Despite living in a digital world, and receiving so much of our information via email, there still seems to be a never-ending influx of paper. In this post, I'm showing you my organised method for dealing with paper clutter.
