How to set up a gift wrapping station

How to set up a gift wrapping station

A gift wrapping station is a great way to save yourself loads of time and effort rushing around the house looking for supplies when you need to quickly wrap a gift or write a card. 

The clip-on basket system is an easy and effective way to keep everything neat and organised and easily accessible, so you can always find what you're looking for. It is also a great space-saver as it doesn't take up much storage space, we have ours on the back of a cupboard door! Check out the video for an in-depth look at how I set up our gift wrapping station and organise our supplies.

 

Our kitchen tour: how I organise the cupboards & drawers

Our kitchen tour: how I organise the cupboards & drawers

Today's episode of The Organised You TV is a full tour of our current kitchen... before we knock it out next week for our renovation! In the video, I'm giving a detailed view at how I organise each cupboard and drawer using different storage solutions to make everything as neat, organised and accessible as possible. Hope it gives you some ideas for how to get your kitchen more organised! 

How I organise my fridge

How I organise my fridge

This week on the blog has been all about getting the fridge organised, so on today's episode of The Organised You TV, I'm giving you a tour of our organised fridge! It's a funny thing to show off the food inside your fridge, I realised as I was filming just how much dairy our family consumes! :0

In the video I'm showing you which storage containers I use to keep food fresher for longer, the categories I use to organise our food, and my reasoning for where I place different items so they are organised and easily accessible. Have you taken the fridge organising challenge this week? Don't forget to grab your 10-step checklist below, and get some inspiration here before you get started!

Our daughter's bedroom makeover

Our daughter's bedroom makeover

I'm so excited to be sharing this makeover with you today! As I spoke about in the previous post, where I shared the 8 lessons we learned from doing this whole project, it was definitely a long time in the making, largely because of the construction work. We also had to try out quite a few combinations to get the furniture just right in this small space, but we're happy with the final result. Our baby girl loves her bedroom and plays in here a lot, so that's a win in my books. Hope you enjoy the new bedroom tour as much as we loved putting it all together!

How to pack your child's lunch-box (and what to pack in it!)

How to pack your child's lunch-box (and what to pack in it!)

As school and kinder resumes this week on this side of the globe, I've been trying to get my brain back into the zone of routine. Not so easy after 5 weeks of lazy mornings! To make the switch, I'll be back to following my checklist of preparing everything the night before for a less stressful morning. This week on the blog, I also shared my 'plan of attack' for how I'm going to put together healthy lunches for my kinder-aged son. I provided a list of ideas for kids' lunches and snacks (grab your free copy below), which I'm hoping will take the stress out of what to pack each day!

Today's episode of The Organised You TV shows you how I pack my child's lunchbox, the products I use, some tips for being more prepared in the mornings, and how I set up my kitchen in an organised way to make the whole process as painless as possible!

Tips for an organised pantry

Tips for an organised pantry

I promised that the 'Quick Tip series' would be moving to video format instead of a regular blog post, so today is the first instalment, with a look at how we safely store our knife collection in the kitchen. Safety should be the number 1 priority when you're organising your kitchen, particularly with young kids around, so this magnetic metal rack that we use is a perfect option. I'd love to hear how you organise/store your kitchen knives, it's always great to hear new ideas to make you think outside the box.
