As the new year unfolds, many of us feel an urge for a fresh start. There is a unique sense of opportunity in the air that inspires us to clear out clutter and organise our homes. The sight of tidy drawers and neatly arranged wardrobes can bring immense satisfaction. From my own experience of loving organisation, I’ve developed a system that helps me sort through belongings efficiently. Let’s take on the challenge together and transform our spaces into welcoming havens. Nursery drawers organised with vinyl labels on boxes The Importance of Decluttering Decluttering goes beyond just tidying up; it’s about embracing what truly matters in our lives. A clean environment often leads to a clear mind. Studies show that 75% of people feel less stressed in an organised space. When chaos filters into our homes, it can create feelings of overwhelm. By removing unnecessary items, we regain control over our physical surroundings and our mental well-being. Every item in our homes carries a certain energy. By letting go of what no longer serves us, we free ourselves for growth and positivity. Imagine walking into a room that holds only the things you love and use; that feeling can be truly revitalising. Gold vinyl labels Getting Started: The Decluttering Process Step 1: Gather Supplies Before diving in, collect what you need for the process. Key items include: Bins/boxes for sorting Trash bags for items that are no longer useful Cleaning supplies for surfaces that need refreshing With your supplies ready, assess each item as you sort. Ask yourself if it adds value to your life. If not, it’s time to let it go. Step 2: Take Everything Out One of the best parts of organising is pulling everything out to see it all clearly. Start with one drawer or section, laying everything out on your bed or floor. This makes it easier to visualize your belongings. You might realize you have six pairs of black shoes you forgot about or multiple half-used candles. This eye-opening exercise can reveal purchasing habits you may want to change. Step 3: Categorize Your Items As you sort, group similar items together. This might include clothes, accessories, books, and kitchen utensils. This organisation will streamline the process of finding things later. Consider adopting a 'one in, one out' rule to help manage future clutter. For instance, if you buy a new shirt, commit to donating an old one. This method can significantly reduce the accumulation of unnecessary items. Labeling for Efficiency With the decluttering finished, take organisation a step further through labeling. Here’s why labels make a difference. Why Labels Matter Labels streamline your organisation efforts. They allow you to find items quickly without digging through bins. According to research, over 50% of people say they waste time searching for items in cluttered spaces. Labels not only add clarity but give each area a personal touch, making it easier to maintain order. Choosing Your Labeling Method There are several effective labeling methods to choose from, including: Vinyl Labels : These are great for various surfaces and come in numerous colors. You can create them using a label-making machine or order custom prints online. Toy storage Tags : Simple string tags can bring a charming touch, especially for items in clear bins. They allow for visibility while providing clear reference points. Loop Tags Select a labeling method that resonates with your style and the items you're organizing. The right labels can make the process enjoyable and effective! Loop tag acrylic labels Maintaining Your Organised Space Keeping your space organised is key after decluttering and labeling. It might seem overwhelming, but with a few habits, you can maintain your tidy haven: Monthly Reviews : Schedule time each month to assess any new items that have entered your space. Are there items that need sorting or donating? Immediate Replacements : Make it a habit to return items to their designated spots right after use. This small effort can prevent clutter from building up. Additionally, keep a donation box handy in your home. Add items regularly, and when the box is full, drop it off at a local charity. This not only keeps your space clean but also helps those in need. Fresh Starts Await The new year is the perfect chance to declutter, organise, and revitalize our living spaces. In my own journey of organisation, I’ve found sorting through my belongings to be both liberating and empowering. Coupled with effective labeling, I experience enhanced control and serenity in my home. A clean home truly contributes to a clear mind. So let’s seize this opportunity together, tackle those drawers and wardrobes, and create a space that mirrors our best selves! Here’s to an organized and fulfilling year ahead!

Hey there, fabulous readers! I'm Lauren, your friendly neighbourhood chaos-tamer, label enthusiast, and proud owner of Pure Joy Designs. Join me on this rollercoaster ride of juggling young kids, not taking life and myself to seriously, sipping cocktails, and turning chaos into pure joy! Lockdown 1, like many of us, brought out the organiser in me. With Netflix as my virtual guru, I became a home organisation addict. Cupboards, wardrobes, and drawers fell under my meticulous reign, all thanks to the magic of vinyl labels. Who knew a tidy home could be so therapeutic? Clean home, clear mind - my mantra! Originally from Rayleigh, Essex, I packed my bags and moved to Bristol in 2012. Happily married in 2017 and then my peaceful life was turned upside down when I became a mum (I wouldn’t have it any other way). I am the proud mummy of a pink loving 6-year-old sassy princess who dances her way from life and 3-year-old hurricane. He comes into every room like a wrecking ball. Trust me; two tiny humans can create a whirlwind of chaos that rivals any TV drama. But fear not, fellow warriors of domestic disorder! I didn't just survive; I thrived. Inspired by the decluttering shows that became my guilty pleasure, I launched Pure Joy Designs in 2020. Because let's face it, if I could bring order to my chaotic abode, I could certainly do the same for yours! Life threw me a curveball in the form of subglottic stenosis, a rare condition that affects my breathing. But you know what? I refuse to let it be the director of my life's movie. I share this not for sympathy, but to connect with those who might be facing their own battles. If you're navigating through the whirlwind of a rare condition or any health challenge, remember you're not alone. Let's inspire each other to keep dancing, breathing, and living. With a degree in Event Management and International Hospitality from the University of Gloucestershire, my pre-mom life was a whirlwind of events across the UK, particularly in London and Bristol. Fast forward to today, and my focus has shifted to tiny tots and turning their chaos into creativity. When I'm not wielding my label maker or immersed in design projects, you'll find me sipping cocktails and socialising with family and friends. Traveling is another passion, and I'm always on the lookout for new places to explore and memories to create. I am looking forward to creating more content on my family life and help other parents with ideas on activities and trips to keep the kids out of trouble and learning just for fun . Pure Joy Designs isn't just about labels; it's a haven for all your design dreams. From laser-cut gifts to 3D-printed wonders, children's activities to personalised goodies, I've got you covered. It's not about me; it's about you and your unique needs. Let's embark on this creative journey together, where I turn your design dreams into a vibrant reality. So, if you're ready to transform chaos into custom creations, join me on this adventure called life. Drop me a message, and let's make your space a Pure Joy haven! Cheers to organised chaos and the beauty of personalized design! 🌈✨
