Wall Organizer

So I have discovered an amazing organizing tool. It's the wall organizer from "Thirty One." If you haven't heard of "Thirty One" they are a company which sells bags, purses, organizing things etc. After searching for a neat and organized way to keep all of our family's schedules, household forms, appointments etc. I found this wall organizer and let me tell ya I LOVE it!! I tried using a household management binder (it's a binder system that holds all of your family's important info.) but found it to be inconvenient for us because every time we were looking for something we had to flip through a binder. Anyways, I found this and fell in love!
This wall organizer keeps everything we need in one place and is easily visible.  We keep our weekly schedule at the top left, my cleaning routine on the top right, appointments/ upcoming events in the middle left, the calendar in the middle, dry erase pens on the middle right, and then in the four large pockets we keep take out menus, coupons, things that need to be taken care of in the near future, and things that need to be filed. It's our family organizer, coupon organizer, calendar, mail organizer etc. all in one!   

We keep it centrally located on the wall separating our kitchen and living room so that way it's easily accessible. Also, we keep our filing cabinet right underneath for convenience. If there's a lot of mail and I can't file it all right away we simply put it in the to be filed pocket and file it when we can.   

I also purchased this little bag from "Thirty One" which holds our pens in the front pocket and envelops/ paper in the larger pocket. This eliminates the frantic search for paper and a pen when you need one in a hurry.  



  This wall organizer has defiantly simplified our lives by creating a central area keeping all our information organized and easily accessible. I highly recommend finding what works for you and your family and creating some sort of "command center" where you can keep all your family's schedules and household documents in one general area. I would love to hear what works for you!
