Spring is coming and although that means Easter, flowers and opening your windows again, it also means Spring cleaning and home organization.

2. Mop and Broom Holder
Let’s start out with organizing all of our cleaning tools. Mops, brooms, hand held brooms and dusters can really get out of hand. I like to hang mine all together in this holder on the wall so they are out of the way, and not falling over if I lean them up in a closet. This keeps everything in it’s place, which I LOVE!
3. Hanger Holder
This little contraption has saved me space and time. I like to take clothes out of the dryer and hang them right away to minimize wrinkles.

It folds out of the way when not in use. I love mine!

I love this organizer because it gets all the stuff that you need off of the counter, and under the sink. This is great for soaps or cleaners in the kitchen, or maybe for your brushes or curling irons in the bathroom. I have one in my utility room with all of the shampoo and stuff to give the dog a bath.
