Breaking the Law of Gravity

Typically what goes up must come down, but the law of gravity doesn’t always work when it comes to picking up and decluttering. 

I’ve found that putting a couple organizing tricks in to play can help make it run a little more smoothly.  One of my favorites is to keep a basket or two around for quick clean ups.  Instead of running up and down the steps or from one end of the house to the other putting things away constantly, put a couple baskets or bins in the mix.  This trick will ensure that tidying up and putting away is a quicker process.
