So, with my "Mission Organization" in mind, I was so excited to find a new blog yesterday, A bowl full of lemons. It is an awesome blog dedicated to keeping a home clean & organized. One idea from the author, Toni, that I plan on implementing immediately is her Mobile Command Center.
Toni used a file box with a spot for everything that comes through the mail or home with the kids. She attached a calendar to the front with clips.
Here you can see her labels (to pay, to file, etc). Each person in the family has a folder as well.
She gives each family member a color for calendar events.
Then, she puts a basket of colored pens in front of the file box.
She adds tabs to each calendar page for easy access.
Lastly, she adds a paper recycle bin or trash can near the file box for immediate removal of junk mail.
Now, if you need a new stylish calendar for you own command centers, Elle, at Switcheroom, is offering a FREE beautiful 12-month calendar. All you have to do is become a fan or follower & leave your email address in a comment & she'll email it to you!
Happy Organizing!!!

Thank you so much for featuring me. I will add your button to my blog. :) Also, let me know when yours is done. I would love to see it!!
I really need to do something like this!
I can't wait to follow along with you..you'll be my motivation :)
I've found that same sight recently too and am doing the 21 day challenge.
Last January, my resolution was to declutter my home. This year, my theme word is "Simplify" so I love all of the organizational tips found at A Bowl Full of Lemons! I hadn't seen the file you shared in your post yet so thanks for sharing :-)
I found you from Toni's blog. I would love for you to link some of your organizing adventures to my Organizing Mission Monday link party. I keep it open most of the week... Hope to see you there.
Thanks for featuring my calendar! :D
Good luck with your project!
I so need to do the very same thing! But it's just so overwhelming! Maybe if I take baby steps, right?
Good luck!
