How do you encourage your children to help keep the house organized?
Anyone can learn the skills needed to live an organized lifestyle especially children. I've taught my children these skills from a young age and share my process for how to do it on my blog. Ebook coming soon! Never wait until your children aren't home to purge their stuff, all that does is make them not trust you. Teach them how to make difficult organizing decisions at a young age while the stakes aren't as high.

Deep breath! There are different seasons of life and being a mom to littles is tough. Very tough. However with some sound strategies in place organization can actually help you manage this difficult time allowing things to run that more much efficiently.

What's the biggest challenge when keeping a home organized?
Time. Let's face as moms we have our hands full just dealing with the kids, never mind tackling all the paper that comes in and the cluttered surfaces everywhere. But it can be done and this is what I teach on my blog. The PROCESS for getting any space organized.

What tips can you offer for closet organization?
I absolutely LOVE the thin felt/velour/velvet hangers for your closet space. They literally double your hanging space. I highly recommend them.
