Organizing and Cleaning Tips and Hints

Do you have the problem of opening up your locker door and having everything fall out on the floor in front of you?
Are you constantly looking for papers that you threw in your locker and can't find?

Is your locker so full that you don't have a place to hang your jacket?

Then, you need to 'GET ORGANIZED"!

There is an item on the market today that is called a locker mate, this can be very helpful for some people, but not for all. A lot of organization is finding out who you are and what your priorities are.

If you are the kind of person that has three pairs of jeans in your locker, a pile of papers that aren't in a folder and two or three pair of shoes, a locker mate probably won't do you much good.

So, what do you do then?

#1 you take some of those clothes home, you only need to have one change of clothes and maybe a sweatshirt in you locker and these can all be hung on one of the hooks. You can also get some sticky hooks and hang them across the backend of your locker and save the bigger hooks for your jacket and heavy items.

Shoes of course, go on the bottom of the locker.

Now, where do you go with all of the extra books and folders that you have? You already have the top shelf filled with things like a mirror and hair brush, so there isn't any room for educational items.

This is where you have to put on your thinking cap and see what you can do to create another shelf.

You may be able to make something out of pcv pipe and plastic, you could take some wood and hammer something together or you may become more creative than that.

For some of this, it may pay to have the help of a dad, uncle or grandpa, but most of this you can do yourself. Think of some ways that you can make more room in your locker!
