Lauren's Holiday Organizing Tips

Tip #1: Edit Before you Deck the Halls

Before you bring out the decorations, take a moment to edit your space. Go through each room and clear out items you no longer need or use. This will free up the space for you to add your holiday decor.

Tip #2: Prepare and Organize the Guest Room

Many of us will have friends and family staying overnight in our homes from now until the New Year, so take the time now to make sure it's neat and well stocked. Consider adding a luggage rack or small bin with toiletries. Adding a framed print-out of your Wi-Fi password can be a really nice touch, too!

Tip #3: Designate a Holiday Zone

Set up a specific room or area in your home for gifts, gift wrap and anything holiday related. Consider using organizing products to contain everything.

Tip #4: Stock up on essentials

Make a list of items you'll need to have on hand, such as candles, napkins, extra snacks, etc., and create a plan for when to purchase and where to store. This will cut down on last minute stress!

Owner of NEAT Method NORTHERN VIRGINIA.

As the natural-born organizer of kids’ spaces, Lauren is already passing this trait onto her sweet daughter. Born in Pennsylvania, graduated from James Madison University, and has called NOVA home for almost 20 years. A broadcast journalism major who has worked in television, restaurants, and marketing. Met and married her husband on New Year’s Eve and loves celebrating with lots of sparkle. A weakness for shoes, coffee, wine, and travel, she is usually working on planning her next trip or making a list (of her lists)! You can often find this multi-tasking gal out for a run, volunteering in the community, or enjoying wine with friends.
