I’ve come out of Insta-vacation mode to post about being organized for back to school!
I shop for three kiddos this way:
💙print the list and staple it to a bag (paper or reusable tote)
💙snap a pic of book mark the list on your phone to shop. I shopped target.com 🎯 for everything this year and had it shipped🙌🏻
💙as you get the items, drop them in the bag and cross them off the list.
💙take the bags to meet the teacher (community supplies. For individual supplies- put them in your child’s backpack when you know you have everything.)

Do you shop by items and deals or just get it all at once at one place??

I followed the advice of the and decided once what our go-to kid gift would be. It’s easy, both are consumable =no extra clutter, and is always a hit with the birthday kid🥳

💙what’s your take on kid birthdays? Present? No present?

Have you heard this? I just said this to a client yesterday. It just means do the hard thing first. You know the thing that you put off, hate, let pike up (I’m looking at you laundry 🧺!)
Just hold your nose, close your eyes, and do it. Everything after will seem easy and you’ll have the satisfaction of getting that thing done.
🐸pile of laundry
🐸sink full of dishes (or a full clean dishwasher)
🐸stack of junk mail and papers?
👏👏 you can do it!

💙What’s your “frog?”

“If it's your job to eat a frog, it's best to do it first thing in the morning. And If it's your job to eat two frogs, it's best to eat the biggest one first.”
-Mark Twain

The days are long but the years are short. A dash of organization helps me be a better mom. If I’m not overwhelmed by clutter, I can be more present with my kids. Not everyone is wired this way, but I’ve never encountered a mom who says “I wish I had more cluttered mess in my house!” 😆
The trick is balance, perspective, and letting the and the systems serve me and my family, not the other way around!
💙where is your pressure point? 💙Where do you need a to help you be more present?

It’s Spring Break and in keeping with our low key lazy days, dinner is an easy favorite: Salad bowls with Red Bag chicken.
💙Here is a tip: don’t mix the salad!

If your family is like mine, everybody likes their salad just a little different. One kid loves tomatoes another won’t touch it, or spinach is the worst thing ever or the best thing ever depending on who’s eating it.
💙 I cut up all the salad fixings and just leave them on my big cutting board. Everyone can make their salad just like a salad bar, exactly how they want it. No fuss and not nearly as many dishes as putting them in individual bowls or even mixing it into one giant bowl.
It’s a spring break win!

💙do your kids eat salad? What are their/your favorite salad toppings?

Super subtle countertop with.less.mess inspired me to decant our family’s vitamins. Something as simple as uniform jars make the whole thing just look better-it feels more calm.
The vitamins live on the kitchen counter in a cute tray with avocados that need to ripen and a spray bottle to keep the cat off the counters😸 and the little blue basket for sanitizer and allergy meds.

It’s a home base to keep that surface clutter free. See the for more on a home base!

Hello!

Hi! I’m Christy Correll-Hughes, the mom behind the Hyphenated Home. It’s my mission to bring a dash of organization into homes that need to experience the beauty and calm that good organization brings. It’s not about having a “perfect” or instagram styled house, it’s about organization that works for you and your family, because sometimes, a dash of organization is all you need!
