Sure we all love it when we have the time and energy to tackle of one those massive organisation projects, like, you know, the hot press or the garage – or that spare room that has basically been used as a storage for clothes in need for ironing for the past year-and-a-half.

However, sometimes there just isn't time for that level of organising (seriously – who has the time?), but I have discovered that I can almost get that same feeling of having pulled my life together by instead tackling a few, much quicker and less intimidating organising projects. Try one – or all – of these today, and you'll be surprised at the level of calm it'll bring you. Even better? Commit to doing these every weekend, and you'll find yourself feeling a whole lot more organised at all times: 1. Clean out your handbag(s) Old energy bar wrappers, receipts, five million pens – and probably, if you are a mum like me, a handful of Pokemon cards, a hairclip, some dummies and God knows what else. Lay a towel of the floor and empty your bag(s) out, give the inside a quick wipe with a bab wipe, and carefully place back in only what you need. 2. Open all the mail Have stuff piled up on your kitchen counter or dining table? Throw out envelopes, junk mail, and keep only what needs to be kept (don't throw any bills out!) 3. Go through your makeup bag and toss everything old or that you don't use And while you are at it, give your makeup bag a wipe down – it probably needs it. 4. Take a bag out to the car and clean out all the rubbish And if you have time, hoover it as well. 5. Organise the cutlery drawer You'll feel a little burst of happiness every time you look inside it. 6. Clean your fridge Toss anything that has gone off, put stuff about to go off to the front, so it can be used, and make a note of what needs to be re-stocked. 7. Colour-code your wardrobe Put everything of similar colour/hue together, and it will make it easier to mix and match outfits in the morning. Plus, it looks super-chic. 8. Write out your calendar for the month Yes, I know we all have Google calendars these days, but there is a lot to be said for having an IRL one as well, taped to the fridge or somewhere where everyone can see it. And while you are at it, make a to-do list for the week ahead too. 9.  Delete screenshots and photos you don't need or want I probably have a few thousand of these, tbh. 10. Delete any apps on your phone that you don't use We all have at least five apps we haven't looked at in MONTHS (Feature image via The Little Market)
