Some of our experts recommend clear bins for toiletries because it’s easy to see what’s inside. And Vernestine Laughinghouse, owner of Absolute Organizing Solutions, recommends stackable bins if you want to maximize the vertical space you may have in the closet. The Target Brightroom 12″ x 12″ x 8″ All Purpose Open Front Storage Bins tick both boxes, and the open fronts make items easy to reach. I researched several clear bins but happened to buy these for my tween daughter’s small bathroom closet. They’re big enough for a couple of bath towels, but they work especially well for her collection of “lotions and potions,” as Laughinghouse calls them.

Vernestine Laughinghouse, the president and owner of D.C.-based Absoulute Organizing Solutions, says the most obvious way to get ordered drawers is with broad, general categories: long-sleeve shirts together, underwear and lingerie in the same drawer, T-shirts side by side.
But other, less literal groupings might work better for you. “Organizing might sound like it’s one-size-fits-all, but it’s not at all because it’s really a reflection of how you live. So the best way to organize your dresser really depends on how you move through your morning,” Copeland says. “If it works, it works.”
Maybe it makes more sense to you to put all of the pieces of a particular workout set together, for example. Or if you always wear this shirt with those pants, […]

Before attempting to organize your food, go through everything in the pantry and toss out expired products, said Vernestine Laughinghouse, founder of Absoulute Organizing Solutions in the District. After that, think about what foods and supplies you’ll really eat and use. Keep those things and donate or compost the rest, she said.

Local grocery stores and farmers markets often have composting stations, too.

A lot of people misunderstand what it means to be organized, so I thought that I would write about what it means to me.
WHAT DOES BEING ORGANIZED MEAN?
Never straighten-up again!
Many people misconstrue what being organized means … in fact, most people think of it as part of the “straightening up” process.
From our perspective, being organized means much more than just making things appear to be organized once in a while. It means having a system in place so that you never need to “straighten up.”
