It’s always nice to reminisce a little as the year wraps up, and a New Year is just around the corner. In that spirit, we thought it would be fun to look back our most popular Instagram posts, as it gives us a glimpse into what is (and isn’t 😉 resonating with our readers. As always, drop us a line, as there is absolutely nothing we love more than hearing from YOU!

To kick things off, let’s start with a little drawer organizing. If you’ve been reading the blog for awhile you know this is one of our favorite areas to organize, and from baking drawers to kids dish drawers – we love having everything so accessible. You all loved the idea of putting plates and bowls in a drawer, but there’s always the dilemma of dishes shifting and bumping into each other. These bamboo drawer separators are one of our favorites to use in both our own homes, and on our client projects as well.

Ah a little home office organizing. You all were clear about how much you enjoyed this one- and we have to say it’s one of our favorites too! This office / cozy kitchen set up proves you don’t need a large space, as long as you keep a minimal mindset and organize accordingly.

Everyone seems to love (and have questions galore!) about how to most effectively organize and style a pantry. We’ve written many a posts to address such questions, and from how to create a gorgeous pantry on a budget to how to DIY your own wallpapered pantry – we clearly can’t get enough of these spaces!

Speaking of pantries, we absolutely understand that many kitchens don’t have one. This is probably why our little baking cabinet struck a major chord with many of you.

Coming in at the middle of the pack – we were so glad to see that we’re not alone in our obsession for decanting ALL things! Like us, you all loved these affordable mini ball jars, which are about as cute as can be and perfect for all of your spices.

Back to drawer organizing, and this time it’s for your flatware and knives. Many of you are either in the process of a kitchen renovation, or you’re thinking about one in the future. This guy was saved to a whole lot of idea boards, as many of you thought it was a clever solution for keeping knives off the counter and out of reach of the kiddos.

Blanket ladders make our hearts go pitter patter, and we were SO happy to see you guys feel the same way! We built our own ladders with the help of Projects in Person, and it was a blast! For more blanket ladder inspiration check out 5 ways to style them.

Raise your hand if you have kiddos, and find their spaces to be one heck of challenge to keep neat and tidy. Ok good, glad we’re not alone and we totally hear you on this one! As mom’s with young children, we love discussing how to wrangle all that toy clutter while keeping a rooms aesthetically pleasing at the same time.
#2
We can’t help but smile every time we see an organized fridge. This one created a LOT of discussion from you all! Everything from questions about where we keep our leftovers (we promise there’s room) to how we created our signature labels.
And the undisputed winner coming in hot at #1 is: the command center. If you have this in place and still can’t get your family organized… then there’s just no hope. All kidding aside, this one means a lot to us. It features our custom acrylic menu and calendar boards, which we initially developed for our own personal needs.
As always, we want to say giant THANK YOU for all the support and feedback! It’s what keeps us motivated and we are SO excited about what’s coming up in the New Year!
Happy 2019 and of course happy organizing!
Love,
Ashley and Lindsay
