Most women have a special love for purses. That means that Organizing Your Purse so those splurges on the latest trend can be useful is important. Keeping track of your wallet, favorite lotion, car keys and grocery list can be daunting in a purse full of pockets. These tips are easy to follow and will make not only keeping your purse organized easy, they will make it easier to switch from one purse to another as needed.
Organizing Your Purse
Remove The Trash
How often have you reached into your purse of a pen and come out with a hand sticky from gum that had been stuck into a piece of paper and tossed into your purse? Do a thorough clean out each week to remove trash, but also include a small bag in one pocket for just that reason. Having a place to stash trash that you can quickly empty as needed will help tremendously.
Use Makeup Bags For More Than Makeup
Those small clear makeup bags are perfect for making your purse easy to find things in. Use one for makeup, one for your first aid kit, one for things like hand sanitizer, wipes and lotions, and one for pens, paper and other miscellaneous items. This makes it simple to switch purses easily as needed, and keeps things orderly and together.
Use The Pockets
Pockets in purses are wonderful for stashing feminine hygiene and first aid products. Outside pockets are great for things like your keys, identification and loose change. Don’t forget to utilize the pockets already in your purse to help keep things orderly.
Purge Items You Don’t Need
Are your kids well out of diapers but you still carry one in your purse? How about that toolkit for “just in case”. Instead of using your purse for those items, supply your care with an emergency change of clothes for the kids, a Swiss Army knife that collapses easily and purge your purse of things you just won’t be using.
I find a purse pocket organizer like this is very helpful to quickly switch from purse to purse!
