One of the most popular New Year's Resolutions is to get organized. But what does that really mean? Does it simply mean putting things back where they belong and straightening up? Does it mean going through everything and getting rid of a bunch of it? Does it mean finding brand new containers to fit all of your stuff? Depending on the person, any of these could be right.

How We Organize Dress Up Clothes
I have a love/hate relationship with a lot of my childrens' toys. I love that play doh helps them with motor skills and get them to be super creative, but it gets all over the table and floors.
