As the saying goes 'everything begins from home ' , in the same way image management also begins from home. 'Diwali' is a good time to do all the cleaning and organizing your home. Just make up your mind and decide first from which room or area of the house you want to begin with. Start with the room which needs most attention and gradually move to the one which needs less attention. You can also divide your work in a couple of days. If you can manage to get some help from someone that will be really good . Mostly kitchen or storeroom is the area which needs most attention. In kitchen you can replace the opaque containers with the transparent air-tight ones so that everything is visible and you can also monitor the quantity of that thing.Labeling is also a good idea. Colorful plastic baskets are very useful and very much in trend , you can utilise them for keeping fruits etc. Also its a good idea to decorate your kitchen a bit with colorful bowls, mugs etc so that you dont feel bored or dull when you are in kitchen.
This is also a good time to organise your wardrobe. For this you first need to evaluate what you already have, what you need to discard and what you need to buy. Have a good look at your clothes and accessories like shoes, bags, belts jewellery etc. Now decide which of the garment pieces or accessories you are never going to wear. Discard those items in a responsible way ( the best way is if you can give them away to someone who will make use of them). You might get emotional while giving away some of the items which you really liked but not using them now or may be they are out of fashion or fit, but remember that clutter is of no use and it takes away your precious space, also its better if someone else can utilize them. Now make a list of things which you actually need . You can list the items in the order of priority, the item which you need first or is very essential can come on the top and likewise the rest can follow. Make a shopping list and keep it handy. Arrange your garment pieces in an orderly manner and store the ones which you wear occasionally. You can use transparent plastic boxes for storage as you can easily see what is stored in which box. Small pouches and boxes are are good for storing jewellery. Use your creativity and use different and interesting things for storing, keeping and hanging accessories. Make a list of things stored in the loft or things which are not used often as you might forget what all is there.
Its all about creativity and spending some time. But once you are organised everywhere in you house you will save lots of time and space. Also the feeling of satisfaction which you get after organizing your home is great!!
