Linen press

linen press – before

Everyone has a linen press, but generally it’s holding alot more than just linen.  It’s essential for this cupboard to be organised, as it’s used daily and by everyone. 
 
How much time is wasted searching for things? 
 
Because items are not allocated ‘a place’, shoving stuff anywhere soon takes over.  Before you know it, you’re in a mess and don’t know where to start to get out of it.
 
Organisational systems are a must for areas accessed by the whole family.
  
  
  

 

 

 

linen press – after

 This is more like it. Items were allocated a shelf, starting with the prime shelf and constantly used items.  Baskets contain like items together.  There were 2 sets of double sheets in here and the double bed had gone years ago!!
 

 

Hint:  There were many different sets of sheets – so the system of folding sets together and putting inside one of the pillowcases, worked well. Organisation is the key, if you use the space daily.
