My favorite way to store canned food 🥫

If you shop for a tiered riser like this one, be sure to measure your space 📏 I love that these ones are expandable, but not all shelves need it. Sometimes, getting two non-expandable ones are a better fit.

Also, take stock of what you have before you add one (or 2 or 3!) of these organizers to your Amazon cart. Some are more narrow than others and don’t fit larger cans. This one from @thecontainerstore checks all my boxes for this client’s dream pantry, making it easy for them to see what they have 👀.

Is your pantry a jumbled mess, or do you know what you have stashed in there?

🌟Podcast feature 🌟

On this week’s episode of the Sustainable Minimalists Podcast, I chat with @mommyminimalist on all things kids, and how to work with your family members to get an organized home.

I share so many good tips in this episode, but my favorite part is that Stephanie didn’t shy away from asking me the hard questions - real life mama stuff that will make you say “yessss this is exactly what I’m feeling and needing too!”

Go give it a listen 🎧 and let me know which tip I shared was your favorite!

Ready to make some changes in how your family approaches your home, consumption habits, and organization?

Asking yourself the hard questions, taking time as a family to set goals, and most importantly: creating a system that will make it work for you, for the long term.

There’s so much organizing goodness in my “Empowering your kids” master class, but goal setting is probably my favorite section. We’ll dive into the hard questions to think through first, before engaging your family (swipe for some of what we’ll cover!). And then, walk through a discussion guide that you can bring back home.

This plus so much more is going down on Thursday at 10am Pacific! Block off your calendar and invest in yourself. You deserve it all, mama!

Haven’t tried decanting your cereal into easy-to-pour containers?

Here’s what you’re missing out on:

• Easiest way for kids to get their own without spilling

• Stays fresher, for longer. (No more “Mommmmmm, the Cheerios are stale”).

• It’s visible when a package is almost empty: refill and keep everyone happy.

• It looks prettier. OK, that one is probably just for you, but come on, you buy it, so you need some motivation too.

Space saving weekday dinner shortcuts 🥘 Priori

Space saving weekday dinner shortcuts

🥘 Prioritize space in your kitchen for frequently used pots, pans and small appliances. Store the others that are only used infrequently elsewhere.

📍Keep oils and spices in an easy to use spot, such as a drawer or cabinet near your cooking zone

🧒🏽 Kids at home while you meal prep? Make them their own station, with separate, easy to access tools that they can use on their own.

🥦 Clean out your fridge 🌟 before 🌟you go to the grocery store and use up those leftovers and forgotten veggies.

👀 Speaking of the fridge: store leftovers in clear containers (glass jars and pyrex are my favs) so you can see what you have.

🥡 And finally, the best cooking shortcut out there: take out.

Cheers 🥂to a week ahead of easy weeknight dinners!

Let’s end Earth Day 🌍 by all sharing one eco

Let’s end Earth Day 🌍 by all sharing one eco friendly tip/swap you plan on making in your home 🏠. I’ve shared lots over the past year in case you want some ideas (check out my sustainable story highlights)- including this one featured this month in @parents x @laura.alice.fenton

My personal Earth Day 2021 takeaway? I’ve got a good handle on all things sustainable in the kitchen and bathroom, so am moving on to making my wardrobe more sustainable (xo to @thegreyedit for all the inspo you share). Fast fashion is tempting me, but I’m saying it here to help hold myself accountable.

Your home deserves to be a sanctuary. Because YOU

Your home deserves to be a sanctuary. Because YOU deserve it.

Feels impossible. Especially when there are other family members (oh hi, kids) taking up so much of your time, leaving you with no energy for anything else.

Start with one thing. One small habit shift (my fav: making my bed daily). Decluttering one drawer. Buy yourself flowers. Do something that makes your home the sanctuary it deserves to be.

And if you get stuck, send me a DM! I’m here for you!
