5 Organization Tips for Your Boston Home in 2014

The New Year is the perfect time to reset the clock and get a fresh start. Whether you’re gearing up to get in shape, save money to buy a home in Boston, reduce your carbon footprint, or jumpstart a healthy eating plan, the start of a new year allows us to reinvent ourselves in any way we choose. While setting goals for making improvements in your personal and professional lives is important, January 1^st is also a great time to get your home organized for the New Year. As you begin packing up your holiday decorations, reference this room-by-room guide for getting your home in top shape.

1. Foyer

The first room your guests will see when they enter your home is often the most chaotic. Invest in a bench with built-in storage bins for hiding miscellaneous items like umbrellas, backpacks, dog leashes, and more.

2. Living Room

Take advantage of vertical space by adding tall shelves to your living room. You’ll have plenty of room to store books, photos, and decorative pieces without infringing on your living area.

3. Kitchen

Glass-front cabinets are going to be a major trend in kitchen design in 2014. By default, transparent cabinetry will force you and your family to be more organized with how you display dinnerware, drinking glasses, and dry goods.

4. Bathroom

Generally speaking, bathroom drawers have a high potential for messiness. By investing in some wooden boxes and trays, you’ll find exactly what you’re looking for in half the time. Go ahead and sleep in an extra five minutes!

5. Bedroom

If you have the available space, add a bench to the foot of your bed. You’ll increase the surface space in your bedroom while giving yourself a place to store extra blankets and pillows.

As we wrap up the holiday season and look forward to 2014, I hope these tips help you organize your home. Not only will each room look neat and tidy, you’ll feel more energized, clear headed, and prepared to tackle your personal and professional goals in the New Year.
