Mobile Command Center

I think the beginning of the year is a good time to get organized. I am on a constant quest for organization and decluttering. I was searching Pinterest for organizational idea and I can across a 'mobile command center'. I completely ~borrowed~ the idea from this post at A Bowl Full of Lemons.

After a quick trip to Target, I was all set up. I love the way it turned out. I will have to let you know how it works reducing our paper/mail clutter.

First thing I needed was a central place for our pens and pencils.



I needed one central location where all the paper in our house goes. Someone gets the mail, it goes here. The kids have papers for me to look at, they go here. So instead of small piles of papers on the kitchen table, on the island and on the coffee table, all the paper goes in one spot.


I used these tabs:
1. Incoming mail
2. Outgoing mail
3. To File
4. Needs Review
5. To Pay
6. Sign and return (kids stuff mostly)
7. Tony
8. Amy
9. Stella
10. Thomas
11. James
12. Grocery list & coupons



The paper gets sorted from the central location to the file folders.....keeping the counters CLEAR and papers where I can find them!!!


One organizational project complete!
