Okay, looks like this Friday organizing link round-up post is becoming a habit! An organized habit I hope! Here are some of the best articles and posts I came across during the past week. If you’d like to have your post featured here, e-mail me at abbieipark at gmail dot com. I’d love to hear from you and learn your organizing tips and tricks!

This pic doesn’t have much to do with organization, but it is one of my cutest this week.

If you read nothing else from this list, you HAVE to read this post My Two Left Feet. I was laughing so hard tears are coming down my face. So click over for a great read! My 2-year old does this too! Thanks Valerie from Thinking Out Loud Blog.

Organizing Tips and Thoughts

Ang from The Creative Mama posting this great article entitled Get your chore onabout how to encourage your kids to get organized and do their chores. Thanks Ang for this neat idea!

I just found this wonderful blog Neat & Simple Living by Ariane. Stop by to read her post My Top 10 Tips for Clutter-Free Living. The tip I love is about placing a donate bin in your closet so when you come across that garment you don’t wear any more, into the bin it goes, and it is permanently separated from the rest of your wardrobe. So smart! Thank you Ariane!

Sarah, who writes at Clover Lane, posted a wonderful read entitled Lots of Kids and Extra-Curriculars: A Guide To Managing It All. I love her tips about keeping life simple and manageable.  This article was posted on Simple Mom.

Good Parenting posting this article,  Organized Living Perfectionism – a New Disorder of the 21st Century, and I am glad to say that I do not have this affliction! It is kind of a humorous read though.

I love these Uncluttered aphorisms. This is the essence of my organizing philosophy exactly. Thank you Erin at Unclutterer.
