9 Organising Tips From Netflix’s Home Edit Season 2 That Will Blow Your Mind

 

Netflix's first season of Home Edit was an unexpected hit. In case you missed out this sleeper hit in the first season “Get Organized with The Home Edit” featured never before seen professional home organizing hacks with Joanna Teplin and Clea Shearer. The show runners have an impressive & famous clientele like Reese Witherspoon, Neil Patrick Harris, and Khloe Kardashian. Joanna and Clea were able to mesmerise everyone with their unique and crafty tips for home organization in the first season. The professional home organizers are back with the second season with tons of new and edgy tips to make your home even more sorted this year. ​Here are some top takeaways from the latest season of the Netflix hit: 1. Follow Four Steps Each Time The biggest take away from Clea and Joanna’s amazing show is that every home organizing journey requires four important steps: edit, categorise, contain and maintain. Each step will have its own unique challenges, for instance making the decision to give up something can be very difficult but if you make the difficult choice you will end up with results that you will love. 2. Manage The Chaos Eliminating the chaos by providing every item its own home. The Home Edit workbook talks at length about how to manage chaos when it comes to storing items like pantry snacks, phone chargers, socks, etc. The Home Edit organizers can help manage such items so that you don’t have them rolling around in random drawers. The goal should be investing in long term solutions, instead of using cardboard boxes for short term non-durable solutions. ​3. Illuminate Your Closets ​Illuminating your closet might sound like a luxury option but if you have a lot of shelves or a large walk-in-closet then it is a must. The addition of lights adds more visibility to your closet space and you can even put-up motion sensor lights making it easier for you to view deep darker spaces. ​4. Replace Obsolete Furniture Don’t be afraid to replace your old furniture with new options especially when the newer options have way more practical use compared to something that you bought 15 years back. For example, you can replace your old bed without storage and install beds with a pull out storage option. They are more practical and give you a lot of space for storing items that may have been lying in the open. ​5. Keep Items at Eye Level That You Use Frequently In The Home Edit workbook Joanna and Clea talk about the importance of keeping things at eye level. The logic is that if you keep things at eye level then you are more likely to use them. This method can even work for promoting healthy eating habits. Keep unhealthy stuff in the bottom parts of the refrigerator and healthy fruits on the top, more often than you will be consuming fruits. You can follow the same method to organize your closet, so you save time while choosing what clothes to wear. ​6. Colour Code Things at Your Home The hosts of the show live by the rainbow system of organization. By colour coding your surroundings you can bring a lot of order and make the space beautiful. You can also teach your children colour coding so that they can learn to organize their books, toys and clothes. It could be a fun exercise for them and they will also put items back to the place where they belong. ​7. One Project At a Time The duo recommends managing one project at a time so that things don’t become overwhelming and you don’t lose interest in organizing. Stick to one area at a time as organization takes meticulous planning and time, so it’s best not to push yourself with too many projects at the same time 8. Use Containers for Storing Spaces in High or Deep Spaces It can be annoying to retrieve an item stored in a high space. You climb on a stool and then aimlessly try to fetch for the said item. To avoid such instances, it is best to store in higher or deep spaced containers. It is best to keep lesser used items in such containers so that you can easily grab them when you need it months later. 9. Store Bigger Items in Bottom Shelves Storing bigger items in lower shelves or on the floor and small items on the top shelves is one of the genius tips from Joanna and Clea. You can use the Home Edit organizers to make organization easier and create an aesthetically pleasing space and a space that is safer to manage.
