Once I started using labels on just about everything, it has made my life so very much easier. I have labels in the cabinets so people don't have the excuse that they don't know where anything goes. I used to get so aggravated having to fix everything all the time! I use a variety of attractive containers where visible and stupid things like shoeboxes where it's not but each one has a label.
Great idea! What kind of labels are you using? Computer printed ones? Handwritten ones? Or do you have one of those label gadgety things? I can see where it would make things a lot more organized overall. Thanks for the idea!
Recently I had to take care of some old storage of stuff in my closet. Labels were a God sent! Now when everything is labeled I can find what I need very easy.
