EP 36: How To Organize Your House + Life for Winter

“I adore the coziness of winter,” says host Corinne Morahan who, on today’s episode of Get Organized for Good, tells us how we can put frameworks in place now to ensure we get the most out of the upcoming season. For those who, like Corinne, live in the northern hemisphere, winter is coming. And it brings with it a specific set of pain points. In this episode, she’ll explain how to deal with wet clothes, dry skin and muddy boots, so that we can make the most of the season. 

 

Corinne will explain how she winterizes her car, keeps the kids busy on long cold days and keeps spirits up when the sun goes down increasingly earlier. Learn how you can keep your pantry stocked to avoid having to dash out in the cold and how to support your community while decluttering your own home.

 

Are you ready to make your home a cozy winter haven? Join Corinne on today’s episode to learn more.

Quotes

• “If you live in a colder climate, or a climate that gets cold in the winter, winter items like winter jackets and snow boots are coveted items in shelters. So, you can feel really good about donating to them.” (3:27 | Corinne Morahan)
• “I do very few swaps in my house. I am fortunate that I have the space for it. Even if I didn’t, I would prefer to have fewer things than have to do a seasonal swap. I don’t enjoy that. I like setting up a system and it’s one and done.” (4:48 | Corinne Morahan)
• “I always make sure that in the colder months we are way more well-stocked than in the summer months because, also, who wants to run out and get something on a cold dark night?” (9:31 | Corinne Morahan)
• “I do have all-weather mats in my car. I used to only put them in in the winter, because that’s when people would get in in their muddy boots and I would swap out the little rug mats for the plastic ones. And then I just decided I’m keeping them in all year long because—guess what?—my kids, when they play sports, are bringing their muddy shoes into the car all year round, and, as I said in the beginning of this episode, I don’t enjoy a swap, I just don’t enjoy it. One more thing to do.” (10:44 | Corinne Morahan)
