Next SDH Warehouse Sale…Stay Tuned!

This warehouse sale, held twice a year is not one to miss, if you like fine linens, bath towels and much more. This years spring sale was on May 17th and 18th from 9 AM to 2 PM. On my wish list was a bathrobe and a throw, and of  course pillows to match.  I walked out with this beautiful cotton cashmere throw called the Trentino. I Love it! Regularly priced at about $440. On sale for $105. Another find this year~ I picked up a standard size sham of Pine Cone Hills’ Boyfriend Matelasse. Super soft and the natural color I chose goes really well with the blue black throw. I topped the set off with a cute  mini throw pillow that SDH makes and sells with leftover materials. It matches the throw and looks handsome.

Goal Setting Review-Tip of the Month

6 / 3 / 145 / 22 / 19


Blooming

The June Reclaim your Domain Tip of the Month is to take a look at your goals that you set for yourself at the beginning of the year.

What were you wanting to create more of in your life?
How are your relationships feeling that you might have wanted to be different?
Did you accomplish all that you were hoping to so far this year?
Are deadlines being met in your chosen profession? with your physical health?

After assessing your goals, Where are you not measuring up to your hopes and how is that sitting with you? Where have you exceeded your plan and how can you pat yourself on the back for that?

Taking inventory is so beneficial in shaking up the must haves and don’t dos. It can also be instrumental in finding the clarity and realignment we might need to move forward with more freedom in our choices and actions for the next few months to come.

DIY Wall File Organizer-Tools to Tout

6 / 3 / 146 / 3 / 14

Clearvue File Folders

More and more, less paper is entering into our homes. Going green has lightened up paper piles and the overwhelm load for most people. I do find there are still a few envelopes and ‘in action’ items that tend to shuffle around the house or office even in the most organized of paperless homes.

The problem I find with even clearly defined folders like to ‘Sort’, to ‘Read’ or ‘Honey do’ is that anxiety builds at not knowing what is in the folder, or what is on the shelf. The unknown can be challenging for even the well sorted type personality. I have created a four folder system to take the nebulous out of tracking our paper. These folders come with the ability to use post its to clearly mark what is going inside. Taking 5 seconds to update what is in the ‘What’s Next’ folder can bring a sense of peace and order to one’s psyche, knowing that when the time is available to work on the project, you will know right where you left it.

The 4 folders are:

What’s New
Mail unopened
What’s Next
Mail opened with an action step
What’s Up
Mail opened that needs a decision
What’s Left
Mail opened/completed that needs filing

This is in the beginning stages of use so it is a work in progress:) For now I am using clear plastic folders to mount on the wall. I notice with clients, that wall file systems stay more orderly and attended to then desk file organizers so I am starting here. Stay tuned though because I have a feeling the concept will stay the same but the wall application won’t.

Estimated Tax Tracking-Tip of the Month

5 / 6 / 145 / 25 / 14

Estimated Tax Check List

Keeping track of estimated tax payments can be easy or taxing depending on wether or not you have automated payments set up or tend to wait until the last minute. I created this estimated form this week for a client of mine, that I think would be helpful for anyone that wants to stay on top of their quarterlies, making the end of the year tax organizer a more pleasant experience.

It includes a place for state and federal estimated from 1040 and 540 ES, property taxes, and  blank rows for other quarterlies.

You can download the Estimated Tax Tracking pdf for for free at your convenience on my Free Products page. I welcome feedback on how to make it more useful.

Yarn Wall Organizer-DIY

4 / 30 / 144 / 30 / 14

Tito Santana

Last weekend I had a Do-it-Yourself day with a client. She is an avid knitter and mentioned wanting to get her plethora of yarn balls into some sort of an organized storage system. After doing some research online, I found this great article by Tito Santana. This wall yarn or cake organizer was just what my client had in mind. It took about 4 hours of labor and an hour of gathering up materials, but well worth it. We chose to do one twice as wide as Tito’s, to accommodate the wall size we were working with. It turned out awesome and it was pretty easy to assemble.

I have been thinking about other uses for this cool nuts and bolts wall and how I could use it in my own home. That is how much fun it was to create. Here were 3 other ways to utilize its functionality.

Ribbon

Baubles and Beads-By replacing the bolts with a magnetic circle you could attach baby jars filled with jewelry making materials

Spices-Using the same principle as the baubles and beads.

Stay tuned down the road…I am going to make one for my spices:)

Donation Tracking-Tip of the Month

3 / 30 / 145 / 5 / 14

Donations Checklist

If you file Form 1040 and itemize deductions on Schedule A, I have created a table for keeping track of your 2014 donations of household goods including furniture, clothing, sports equipment and appliances. The items include low and high values based on a combination of the Salvation Army donations guide and Turbo Taxes ItsDeductible Mobile App. The latter is an awesome resource because you can upload your end of the year totals directly into your tax filing if you use Turbo Tax services.

I often provide drop off services to charities for my clients, so I am excited to start offering this more finely tuned way of helping people stay on top of how much they are donating throughout the year and reducing the guesswork come tax time.

You can download the Clearvue Donations Checklist.pdf as well. I would suggest keeping a few in your glove compartment or car organizer, and when you drop off a bag of goods, spend a couple minutes checking off what you dropped off. Look forward to hearing how it works out for you all.

Often times it’s impossible to be everything all at once. I really think life comes at us in various seasons. In this one, I plan to soak up every last moment of baby cuddles that I can. It really does go by so fast and before I know it he’ll be waving goodbye as he backs out of the driveway and heads to college. I can’t handle it! 😭#notgonnatalkaboutit #babycuddles #angiemakes #sweetbaby #soakingitup
