I found another brilliant tip from Martha Stewart on how to store your jewelry.  If you have many orphaned teacups and saucers, do not throw them away.  Though you cannot use them to keep your prenatal vitamins, these teacups and saucers are just perfect for sorting your jewelry.  Just arrange them in your drawer and you will get to spot your jewelry right away.  Line your drawer with felt or velvet to prevent sliding.  Neat eh?  Drop earrings can be hooked on the rims of the cups.  It is time for me to take out all my jewelry and do some spring cleaning.

I just love this idea from Martha Stewart’s blog.   If you don’t know already, I love using furniture or knick-knacks made from bamboo or wood.  I was going through some tips on how to organize the kitchen at Martha’s blog, I was delighted to see how she use a bamboo steamer to store onions, shallots and garlic.  How come I never thought of using this eh?  Bamboo steamers have holes which let the air in or out when steaming.  Therefore, these steamers are just perfect for storing items which require ventilation.   You can place a tray or plate at the bottom to catch flaking skins or perhaps line it with paper towels.  Ok, I am going out to get a few bamboo steamers soon.

I do not like to see any clutter at my front door.  As important as diet pill that works, it is pertinent to keep this area of your home clear. According to Feng Shui, the door and hallway are considered the mouth of the home.  Therefore if this area is cluttered of junk, the people living in this home will feel depressed or uncomfortable.  It is best to keep things organized here and one of the best ways is to get this organizer from Studiomanzano-eboutique.fr.  It consists of a shelf to keep the magazines, 2 places for letters, 10 hooks to hang your keys and also 5 magnets to expose flyers or photos.  Neat eh?

Many months ago, my friend’s husband has applied for one of the philadelphia airport jobs and he just received notice that he has been hired by them.  Therefore, my friend and her husband will be moving to Philadelphia in a couple of weeks’ time.  I was over at her apartment earlier  to help her pack and I really love what my friend had done to organize her front door clutter.  She hang a few of the mail baskets near the door to collect mail, correspondence and even shoes.  She bought those lovely baskets from Joannacollections.com.  Hmm…..I am liking this idea a lot so perhaps I should get a few baskets myself.
