Back To School Organizing Tips : 2013 ideas

<div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">School is in session! This time of year we can all use a little organization advice. Use these creative and helpful tips to store more in your home.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Organize Your Important Papers, Bills, Receipts & More</b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b></b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEie1q50WjVL1Z6UibJpC1c2mW7emks8OmqgNUMh5Ryd4DOkT5arIyfHLP9LcQrO_8EPdX8WbYXujikSj9_92c1Lx0ZhYMqPXqiewr83NEdRtoaYtMD3ypdYrPUo_AbFutdCawNhqvL5WAK-/s640/School-Organizing-Tips-2013-ideas-13.jpg" width="480" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="heading2"><span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Just Drop It</b></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Take charge of underused kitchen items that could be repurposed for organization. This vintage toast rack becomes an elegant in-box on an entry table. Use the slots to keep postage stamps handy for outgoing mail and to sort what comes in.</span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPt1dcPS2cmJ7WWnX2nmANbo-vC9sKMiFBugMV1H3UAGpWWRg6C34B9wzujKwoLmNTkOwPc0q_RLbIYdWMeRkC8Sk78QsdzcsIfmDeXhs9ce4BbG1mIp-alJt2c-zutUviBoU01QU7rWKT/s640/School-Organizing-Tips-2013-ideas-12.jpg" width="480" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="heading2"><span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Portable Projects</b></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Forget boxy filing cabinets. Flat-bottom tote bags are sized right for file folders and make perfect project carriers. Tuck a separate shelf under a desk to keep the bags upright. Add more storage with a set of stackable drawers on the desk and stash wrapping paper in a pretty bin beside it.</span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXAirxnGcNZYYgIRnOjLB9jU5PPxwDG9dPKE0RuiUiOiE3ipZE_-ct5NvlWMxAg0NX9235ODeeAPXiQ2Vdse9ezio9tS65e9AoXAv9uAInd5WYMJun0ezrto9P9aH4xz0w3j_Vz60FtRIq/s640/School-Organizing-Tips-2013-ideas-11.jpg" width="480" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="heading2"><span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Office Out Box</b></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With meetings, school, practice, and pets, it's easy to lose track of time on busy mornings. A drop zone is a foolproof way to manage mail that needs to go out the door. Designate two trays  one for bills to pay and one for outgoing letters near the entryway of your home to make sure nothing is missed.</span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1K7feZNtXDz2QMsbtEoQZ1yT_Z112CCgfZw-x9kpEhHf-1uOrxNP3OPa1-maaES8dvDTSLCXcwP4nfGAG3f53Kk-4u5nQMAszGqnZTnETGqFhAvgGPni0ZfdxJgZS7KRCEB_DK_k28HcE/s640/School-Organizing-Tips-2013-ideas-10.jpg" width="480" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="heading2"><span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Expense Tracker</b></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A well-ordered expense tracker makes it easy to maintain inventories and keep important documents on hand. With several compartments, this file box ensures manageable space to organize receipts and other frequently-accessed items. Look for a device with labeled pockets so you can organize information by subject or date, or alphabetically.</span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQrMjRP2OO22wXGapLRdklV_fK8esu7RZm0oNw7ylky6dUy2hAktUD7vhw5H_pKOIEqOFahk4Rd797W0kkCnEjoiycU8LvCY4fO3GkoCQOJDiTWuxsE6euN8UJSiYtKgDLQDH4xJ6VNW7L/s640/School-Organizing-Tips-2013-ideas-9.jpg" width="480" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="heading2"><span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Style-Setting Role</b></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">By keeping papers on hand and off the desk, this wall-mounted file helps corral paper clutter. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Use each compartment to organize items by category, such as bills, schoolwork, and notepads. Affix metal hooks to outer panels for keys or grab and go items.</span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1eUJf1Ql_mHulB9CexgwbRtYAQ8NT9KUqwDqXgNSrwSXiKogrGua7HGQiFjv2yV_7TmouoXVQ7W0Pq_wbTGgqqZCZUqqqz_683aS7VEbsMGDUKl_HBe5SuXVp9uixrkrdHSpT92g2si7j/s640/School-Organizing-Tips-2013-ideas-8.jpg" width="480" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="heading2"><span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Message Center</b></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Keep clutter at bay with a multi-purpose work station. This communication haven is built from a patchwork of magnet, dry-erase, chalkboard, cork, and pegboard squares behind the built-in desktop. The combination of materials ensures that messages and papers can be stored in versatile ways. Use magnetic boards to hold papers you need only temporarily, dry-erase boards and chalkboards to jot down quick messages, cork boards to stick more permanent papers on (favorite take-out menus, emergency phone numbers), and pegboard squares to mount containers for desk supplies</span>.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikqofoTttmUEBBofGUB5xK0nVVMmPqgwFDpKfgMDDQQO9ev93vRV2EDcv8BqWPCkIjYZBR9rUdt-JE4SWBfTA1O2_j5CqKzYfAu1HtXXeYfZ2zxLuzPFSrTolt8BiNBL836zZuZirv9L7W/s640/School-Organizing-Tips-2013-ideas-7.jpg" width="480" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="heading2"><span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Out to Dry</b></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Create a personal filing system that meets your daily needs and makes sense to you, but make it easy to use.
