If you iron clothing then set up your ironing supplies.  An over the door type ironing board is a really great purchase if you do not have one that is built in.  Many big box stores carry  do it yourself ironing systems that can be installed pretty easily.  This will serve to cut clutter in your laundry room over the long run. Place any fabric starch you may use with your ironing board and iron.  If you need a small shelf for storage then by all means put one up.

Where do you place your clothing as you either take it out of the dryer or as you iron?  A good clothing rod is worth its weight in gold.  Keep plenty of hangers on it and the hanging of your garments straight out of the dryer will become easy.  When you are ironing it will also be a huge help as you can place the ironed clothes directly on the rod.

Once you have your laundry room or area cleaned, organized and ready you can turn your attention to the laundry itself.  To get better organized in the coming year look at how your dirty laundry is stored.  Do you have a system?  If not the first step is to make certain you have proper container for laundry to be deposited in.  Baskets, linen or canvas bags, and rolling organizers are all things that can be used.  Place one in each bathroom or bedroom and then teach your family what it is for!  If your children are old enough begin to teach them how to do laundry.  Even smaller children can gather and bring their own laundry to the designated laundry area.

As children get older they can do their own laundry with the appropriate training.  This is a huge help and if they each have a specific laundry day laundry never piles up!  Taking the time to train then now will result in less stress for you later.  One of the first things to teach them is to sort laundry by lights, dark’s, and dedicates.  Even if you place them in the washer at least you will save time if they are pre-sorted.

Everyone in the family can fold and out away their own laundry. When you are organizing the laundry room make certain to include a folding area of some type.  This will give an area specific for the folding and then place clothes into the original basket for returning to drawers or closets.  When everyone works on laundry it becomes less of a chore.

One really easy, super organizational tip is to make certain one load of laundry gets done per day.  This means all the way done from wash to dry to fold and put away.  You will be surprised at how much this keeps the Mount Wash-more at bay.  No matter how busy you get doing this one practice will give you peace of mind in the new year.  Hopefully you will be able to implement and then keep this laundry resolution throughout the year.
