The Secret Items Professional Organizers Swear By

I always say an organized house is an organized mind. There’s just something about it that can brighten your whole mood—not to mention tidy up your home. An organized home can even reduce stress, especially if your home is a small apartment. Think about it. How many times have you been upset simply because you couldn’t find something? (Car keys, anyone?) How often do you put off cleaning because you just don’t have a place for everything? (Me, too, until I found these items!)

This list of the secret organizing products professional organizers swear by is proof—you can have your cake and a place to put it, too!
