Get inspired to level up your home organisation with tips, Q&As, and photos of the living spaces of twenty-five international home organisers, from the author of Minimalista. Whenever people learn that Shira Gill is a professional home organiser, they always lean in and ask the same question: "So, is your home really that organised?" Spoiler alert: the answer is yes. Organized Living was inspired by Shira's desire to give others a glimpse into this rarely-seen world: The organised homes of people who organise others. There are plenty of books highlighting the spaces and stories of designers, entrepreneurs, and creatives; here, Shira showcases the homes of home organisers, from London to Lisbon, Paris to Portland, giving you an exclusive behind-the-scenes look into this meticulously kept world.

Getting your room ready for the school year can be extremely exciting. What we really need to focus on, though, is functionality. Yes, it's great if our rooms are cute and fun, but it's more important that we be strategic in how we set things up so that we can maximize our efficiency.
This pasta bake is done in one pan and doesn’t require you to even boil the pasta first. Yes, that means the pasta is cooked in the oven! It’s amazing how delicious it is when you literally only need to spend 5 minutes prepping it. This one is going to save your weeknights for sure! NOTE: This recipe was retested and updated in Nov. 2021 because some commenters noted that it sometimes curdled. We changed the 2 cups whole milk to 1 cup heavy cream and 1 cup stock. We've had amazing results with this change (no curdling!), but wanted to share in case you loved the previous version. The sauce is a pretty pink like a vodka sauce and clings to the pasta beautifully without curdling. We also increased the salt from 1/2 teaspoon to 3/4 teaspoon. Enjoy! - Christine xo

How to make a classroom board for students to check in, take attendance, do lunch count. I call it my "everything board." Here is a project that I saw pinned and brought to life using duct tape. {Yes, duct tape} I feel like I won the duct tape queen award this year as it is everywhere in my room. I used a giant oil pan as found in the automotive section of a big box store that was under $12. I laid out some scrap paper and magnets to help me plan where I wanted sections to go. My kinders can only reach so high since I mounted this to my bulletin board, so some of it is reserved teacher display space.

It wasn’t until a few months after starting my dot grid, that I decided to try a habit tracker. At first, I was a skeptic. Does it really matter if I don’t get 8 glasses of water a day (turns out, yes). But oh how quickly I became obsessed with these layouts. I love it because, eventually I stopped needing it. My habits became automatic (which is exactly the point). If you’re already using one of our dot grid journals, here’s a quick tutorial on how I created this layout. The layout will work in other dot grid notebooks, but you might have to slightly modify, as the pages aren’t identical to ours. Step 1: Leave top 7 rows blank for your header Step 2: Draw a box 21 dots wide and 28 squares long. They will be one column of padding on each side. Step 3: 6 squares from the left of your box, draw a vertical line all the way down. Step 4: Every 2 squares, draw a horizontal line across the boxes. Step 5: Horizontally divide the right hand boxes into two rows. Step 6: In the right hand boxes, add vertical lines all the way down after each square. Step 7: Add the days of the month (1-30) in the boxes. If your month has 31 days, it’s ok to tack on an extra square at the end. Step 8: Add the the title, doodles, and habits you want to track.For each day you complete a habit, color or shade in the box. If you enjoyed this lesson, and are interested in learning more layouts, sign up for information on our Dot Grid 101 course, coming this fall! Or if you’re not into the DIY scene, you can download this exact layout as a free printable here!
