My favourite organising tools #1 – notebook & pen
Edited to add the button – this is not the original person who was supposed to make the button for me!
This is a new series that I’ll be posting on the blog, one post per week.
I battled a bit with perfectionism because I asked someone to make me a button and I wanted to wait for that first before starting the series. I’m still waiting for the button as you can see but since I’ve had this ready for about 10 days now, I decided to go ahead and post. I can always add it in afterwards, right?!
At the moment I have planned 10 tools but who knows? It could and probably will stretch to include more tools.
Why do I love notebooks and pens?
It is easier to jot some notes down immediately without losing the thought than to have to try to remember it.
I have notebooks all over the house, one next to my bed, one on the entrance hall table, one in my handbag, one in the car, etc.
This one is in the kitchen and I use it for my helper, Bea, to leave her any notes
This one is on our phone table
