COLOR-A great technique to use in organizing. There are certain common methods of using color. Examples are separating folders for client, vendor and admin files, grouping shoes, dividing children's toys and possessions, and of course sorting laundry.
But think about other ways using color can make life a bit easier:
-purse contents in separate zipper bags with cosmetics, office supplies, seldom used items divvied up.
-travels documents in separate colored folders for each destination of a trip.
-check book covers in different hues for each account.
-rubberized key rings to differentiate house, gate, garage, mailbox,vacation home keys (after all, how many stray keys are in that junk drawer??)
-tax files vs. family storage in distinctive colored boxes.
Color is an easy identifier. So next time you are faced with a jumble of items, use color to control & segregate. (Don't forget- reportedly 1 in 10 guys is color-blind, so take color choices into account if a household member/fellow worker has this condition.)
