Happy Friday! Friday has ALWAYS been my favorite day of the week.  My love of Fridays began with a 4-day work week when my kids were young.  I cherished the quiet-me time at home that one day a week while the girls were in school, and husband at work.  I’d get in a workout, then home- cranked up the music, made my list of the day’s tasks, and got into it.  Home organizing on a Friday was my way to start the weekend with a fresh and tidy living space. By the time school and work ended, the house was clean, laundry done, fridge cleaned and restocked and ready for the weekend.  Here are some ideas for happy Friday home organizing if you happen to have off today for the snow or just love a Friday re-set as much as I do! Happy FRI-YAY!!

Freshen up Bedding

Change and freshen up the bedding in bedrooms. Wash comforters if needed, fluff pillows.   I like to start the day by stripping beds and running loads throughout the day while doing other tasks. 

De-Clutter Common Areas

Start by decluttering common areas like the living room and kitchen. Put away items that are out of place and tidy up surfaces.

Sort and Organize

Take a few minutes to sort through items in different rooms. Organize them based on categories and put them in their designated places.

Clear Kitchen Countertops

Clear kitchen countertops of unnecessary items. Wipe them down and create a clean and inviting space. I like to clean and put toasters away, blenders and other items not being used every day.

Check Expiration Dates

Go through the pantry and refrigerator. Check for expired items and dispose of them. Make a note of items you need to restock.

Organize Entryway

Organize your entryway, clean front door glass, place shoes, coats, and accessories in their designated spots. This sets a welcoming tone when you enter your home.

Create a Relaxing Space

Designate a corner or space in your home for relaxation. Arrange comfortable seating, get some fresh flowers, diffuse some lavender oil, and create a calming atmosphere.

Organizing your home can be a satisfying and rewarding way to spend your snowy Friday, setting the stage for a more comfortable and enjoyable weekend.
