1. Start with Storage
The hardest thing about home storage is knowing where to start. If you start with a plan, future you will be thanking past you for being so on top of things!

2. Make Your Garage a Home Storage Palace
Garages are perfect places for storing your seasonal gear, extra layers, garden supplies, or holiday decorations… if you can keep them organized! Too often, garages become cluttered, and you can’t find anything. We’ve all been there! But when you’re boxing things up this year, make sure you can find them. Start fresh with a deep clean. Then, designate zones where you can categorize items, so they’re easy to find. Finally, maximize your storage space by installing shelving on the walls, pegboards for tool organization, and hooks for hangable gear like bikes.
No garage? No problem! Another great home organization option is under-the-bed storage.

3. Organize your kitchen
The kitchen can get a little hectic over the holidays. Were you fumbling around looking for the right casserole dish last year? Or maybe you swear you had a matching gravy boat and saucer but couldn’t find it anywhere? This is your sign to revamp your kitchen! Having a well-kept kitchen is one of the best ways to make a place feel like home. Organize your kitchen to maximize function and create a space you actually want to work in. And, while you’re at it, maybe it’s time to get rid of some of your old pots without lids or Teflon pans riddled with scratches and freshen up your kitchen! Check out our kitchen supplies for inspiration.

4. Clean up your Closet
Another area you’ll want to organize is your closet. You’ll still be using winter clothes for a while (Spring in Bozeman, you know?), but holiday sweaters are ready to go into storage. It’s also a great time to think about what you’d like to donate. Then get to organizing! Shelves and shoe racks are must-haves for optimizing your closet space, and storage bags or bins can help consolidate your clothing.
