    Getting organized is the worst. I mean, there's the going through your stuff phase, the purge phase, the immediately-regretting-that-purge phase and then boom! Where are you going to put all this stuff? There are a lot of cute storage solutions right now, and I've put together a few of my favorites. I love this Axis Set of Nesting Boxes in Black Toile at Target. Imagine having all of your accessories neatly organized in these boxes sitting on the shelves in your closet? Delightful! For a great vintage, well-traveled look, why not use this Faux-leather Trunk as a side table in your living room? Extra credit if you can add some stickers of your favorite destinations.

    With all the talk these days about buying eco-friendly products made of materials such as bamboo, I decided to do some research. Turns out that bamboo reaches maturity in 3-5 years compared to 25-70 years for other trees. Bamboo is also renewable which means it will grow back after harvesting. So it's not just marketing hype after all! Bamboo products are everywhere and it's easy to decorate your hom,e from your living room to the kitchen, with bamboo! For the bathroom, I'm loving the bamboo bath accessories from Crate and Barrel. Did you know that bamboo fibers can also be woven into a gorgeous area rug? Remember, shopping for eco-friendly products means that you're doing your part in helping the environment. For more proof that being eco-friendly no longer means bland and boring, take a look at my slideshow for the latest bamboo products in home decor!

    I love being invited to other people's home not only for their amazing company, but to also get different home decor inspiration. I would have never thought of pairing a zebra print rug with leopard print pillows on a solid couch! Of course in these visits, one always has to use the restroom and it's in the bathroom where you really get a sense of your hosts. Are they neat and tidy with everything in it's place? Or are the towels all mixed up and beauty items all over the counter? My latest home decor organization obsession is with toothbrush holders. So some people use an old mug or the grimy metal one that came built-in with the bathroom. If that sounds like you, then I've got a ton of unique toothbrush holders you'd be proud to show off. From the quirky stag toothbrush holder from PerpetualKid.com to a chic coral reef inspired one, who knew you could have a conversation showpiece right in your bathroom? Take a look at my slideshow for more unique toothbrush holders!

    Is your New Year's resolution to organize your closet, your house, your life? If the things around you in your everyday life are in order, you might find yourself with a more orderly mind as well. So we've found some great storage items to help you reduce the clutter in your home - and maybe add to its beauty at the same time! Look for furniture that does double duty, such as a trunk-style coffee table in which you can store magazines and books. Put clothing you don't use year-round under your bed and out of the way. Hang CDs and DVDs from a door with a media rack. Save space with shelves that lean against the wall instead of a bulkier bookcase. Or put up photos on an interesting wall shelf from West Elm. You're sure to clear up space and clear your head. Check out the SLIDESHOW!

    Organization 101: Baskets, Baskets, Calendars, and Baskets

    Time to fess up: I'm a neat freak. Even writing the word clutter sends a shiver down my spine. Getting rid of things€”via donation, eBay, or the good ol' fashioned sanitation department€”gives me far more satisfaction than is probably healthy. I can self-diagnose my addiction as being directly linked to two things: 1) my intense love of shopping and 2) the formative years I spent in cramped, closet-deprived NYC apartments. My hubby, on the other hand, who spent just as many years in tiny apartments and never met a Banana Republic he didn't like, is a pack rat, though he prefers the title, "Collector of the Mundane." From VHS tapes (we don't have a VCR) to ATM receipts from 2003, he believes nothing is too inconsequential to save.
