Why resetting for spring is a good idea
Spring is a time of renewal and growth. The flowers start to grow, the animals come out of hiding, and the weather starts to clear up. Winter can often feel stagnant, cluttered, and uninspired. It’s completely normal to need a refresh after that!
Spring offers the perfect opportunity for resetting your physical surroundings which in turn will reset your mind. A cluttered home equals a cluttered mind!
An organized space, whether your home or workspace, can boost productivity, reduce stress, create mental clarity, and help you be a more successful person. It’s much easier to focus on all those new habits and goals you want to achieve when you and your physical spaces are organized.
And just like nature comes back to life in the spring, a good spring reset can re-energize you for the months ahead!
The best organization hacks for a spring reset
Who doesn’t love a good organization hack? When it comes to doing a spring reset organization and decluttering are crucial! In with the good, out with the bad kind of thing.
I know everyone knows some basic cleaning and decluttering. But these are awesome spring reset organization hacks that you need to try! Definitely more than just your average house clean!
1. Pool noodles in your shoes
Okay, hear me out! It’s the worst when you pull all your winter boots out of the closet for winter and they are misshapen and weird. Store your boots (and other shoes) with pool noodles in them (cut short to fit your shoes) to keep their shapes while in storage!
2. Use clear bins in your fridge/ freezer
Go grab some clear bins to organize all your fresh spring produce in! Not only does it look nice but it keeps things in sight which means you won’t waste as much! You can do the same thing in your freezer.
An extra hack: freeze meat, sauces, and prepped veggies in freezer bags and flatten them out. Then you can STACK the flattened frozen food and place them in your clear bins for easy finding.
3. Utilize suction cup organizers
You may have some new skincare or other products to use this spring. New season, new skincare! To keep your bathroom counters clear you can get some small storage bins that use suction cups. Attach these to the wall in the bathroom near the sink or the usual way, in the shower, to keep your products organized and your counters clear.
4. Install pull-out drawers in the kitchen
This is a great hack if you have those awkward corner cabinets but they can be used for any cabinets! Instead of regular shelves, opt for pull-out shelves. This gives you more useable storage space and it’s more accessible!
5. Get a water bottle rack
You may find yourself drinking more water as the weather gets warmer and you start doing more activities! Gotta stay hydrated. Your water bottle cabinet may be a bit of a hot mess. So get a water bottle rack that lets your water bottles lay down and be stacked. Much easier to store and you aren’t always catching a stray flying water bottle when you open the cabinet door.
6. Repurpose cutlery trays in your bathroom
Cutlery trays are the perfect little organizers. They fit most drawers and chances are your kitchen drawers are similar in size to your bathroom ones. Grab a cutlery tray and use it to organize your toothpaste, brushes, floss, hair ties, and so on.
7. Use a grain dispenser
Use a grain dispenser to get rid of extra bags and boxes in your pantry. It’s easy to empty those half-full bags of rice and pasta into the dispenser, making the space less cluttered. Also, having a grain dispenser is super cool and makes cooking even easier.
8. Make use of under bed space
You may not have enough room to store all your clothes in your closet! Grab some bins or even vacuum-sealed bags to store your winter clothes in. You can find bins with wheels that can slide under your bed too (which is otherwise wasted space). This lets you have more clothes for all the seasons without having your closet stuffed to the max.
Other organization tips that will help your spring reset
You probably find yourself doing some organizational and decluttering tasks throughout the year. However, spring really brings out that “new space, new me” feeling. Now that you have some useful spring reset organization hacks, here are some general organizational tips that you may find helpful.
Tackle one area at a time: it can be super overwhelming trying to clean and tidy your whole house. You add even more stress when you try to declutter and organize it too. Start with one room or even one closet and go from there.
Use the four-box method: when going through rooms and closets create four boxes or bags labeled “keep, donate, recycle, trash.” This will help you sort through everything, making sure things are going to the right places.
Declutter on a regular basis: everyone jumps on the spring cleaning train which is great! But you don’t need to wait for spring to declutter. Try to declutter your spaces on a regular basis so when you get to your yearly spring reset life is much easier.
Final thoughts
Spring is about fresh starts and having an organized space is the perfect way to bring in the season. By using these simple but effective organization hacks you can create a home that feels lighter and clutter-free! Whether you are organizing your closet, the kitchen pantry, or the garage, small changes can make a big difference.
Remember, a cluttered space equals a cluttered mind. By doing a spring reset you are actually resetting your life and setting yourself up for success. Take it one step (or one room) at a time and enjoy the process!
