Thats because the system worked. Other places i organized fell back into disarray...those systems didnt work. Sometimes it was because they were too complex. A good simple system that can be maintained is what will last. Sometimes it takes more than one try to find it.

I like to experiment with cooking, etc. I got tired of digging through all the spices. But no one else who uses my kitchen was keeping up with that plan. Now I group them by general categories of things I use together. (Mexican spices, italian spices, baking spices, etc.) Seems to be working.Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12192064538924964308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-60293516800198580862014-10-26T16:20:41.413-05:002014-10-26T16:20:41.413-05:00As far as the Lego thing, ever listen to the conve...As far as the Lego thing, ever listen to the conversations the kids have as they shuffle through Legos looking for a certain pieces? No Mom's don't sort the Lego because you miss so much when you do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-16799370598521939912014-10-26T16:04:28.246-05:002014-10-26T16:04:28.246-05:00Oh how refreshing!

I had a friend who had her fridge highly organized. She had certain items assigned to certain shelves. Those shelves contained clear, lidded containers with labels as to the contents. It was a thing of beauty....Any way beyond my reach! <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-15202202425833814752014-10-26T15:47:44.559-05:002014-10-26T15:47:44.559-05:00Exactly.

I'm seeing a friend at a quilt show in Houston this weekend, so hopefully I'll see some great stuff there. (I don't sew. I just enjoy when others do.)Giftie Etceterahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11353862141419399333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-68118105106779670832014-10-26T11:18:47.419-05:002014-10-26T11:18:47.419-05:00Love this post.

It seems kind of creepy to be so obsessed with organizing everything to the endth degree. I tend to feel bad for the other family members.Deb@asimplelifequiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13178872701953461660noreply@blogger.com
