We are currently working on our monthly Home Organization Challenges. If you are just now joining us you might want to think about starting from the beginning. There are a lot of tips and tricks that I share to help you be successful in your organizational pursuit. Each of the challenges have been designed to build off of the previous challenge, so if you start at this point you won’t get as much out of it.
Today’s Challenges: (don’t forget to celebrate)

Day 23 – Bathroom(s)/Laundry Room
Today we’re going to grab another piece of paper and a pen and head into our bathrooms and laundry room. Just like yesterday, we’re going to take a seat in the middle of the room and make a list of everything that needs to be cleaned, starting with the ceiling and working our way down to the floor. Once that’s completed, you’ll decide how often each item needs to be cleaned.
Here’s a sample of what my Bathroom and Laundry Room lists look like:

Now that you’ve completed your bathroom and laundry room lists, transfer the items onto the appropriate section of the printable. If you have more than one bathroom, print off a bathroom printable for each one. Place the printables into a sheet protector and file it under the monthly tab of your Reminder Binder.
