How to Organize Your Purse
September 19, 2011
This blog post is for the ladies out there. As the seasons are changing, now is a common time to change purses. Follow these steps to start fresh and organize your purse today:
- Pick your Purse – The first step is to choose which purse you will be using. If you are shopping for a new purse, look for one with several pockets or dividers.
- Empty and Sort – Empty everything out of your current purse and sort through the contents one at a time. Make three piles – Keep, Toss, and Put Away.
- Divide – For your purse to be organized, you need to group like items together. This is where a purse with several pockets or built-in dividers comes in handy. If your purse has just one or two large compartments, consider purchasing a purse organizer. It drops right into your purse and provides several compartments for things like keys, phone, wallet, pens, checkbook, etc. The added benefit of a purse organizer is that you can easily switch purses by just lifting the organizer out and putting it inside another purse.
Enjoy being able to find what you need right away in your lighter, more organized purse!
