Two minute tidy tip: use chalkboard stickers to label household items

Chalkboard stickers are great! They're reusable, and you can clean off whatever you 've written and start again - so they're really cost effective.

You'll need:

A set of chalkboard labels - I got mine for around £3 on Ebay:

 A chalkboard pen - this cost about £4 from a stationers, but normal chalk would be fine too.

 

Write out what you want the label to say - you can wipe it off with water and a cloth if you make a mistake:

 

Then attach your labels to wherever you want to stick them! I chose them to identify these boxes at the top of my wardrobe:

 

And you're done! Cost: around £7 - I already had the boxes, and they cost £2 each.

How to: organise and store bed linen

Keeping linen organised can be a bit frustrating! I keep mine in a drawer under the bed. Quickly finding what I need can sometimes take time:

I thought I'd share a great tip that I saw somewhere online. Take a pillowcase from any duvet set (and no, I never iron mine, I cover my bed with a nice bedspread!)

Next,  put your folded duvet cover, sheet and other matching pillowcases inside the pillowcase. Then, fold it  in half for neat and tidy storage:

Now your bed sets will have their own storage 'compartments' and will be easier to grab!
