It might surprise people, but getting organised can be a powerful catalyst for creativity. The way we structure and utilise our spaces plays a significant role in fostering creativity. In this blog post, we'll explore innovative ideas that seamlessly blend organisation and creativity. From the clever use of blue tack to repurposing business card holders, these tips will transform your space into a hub of inspiration.

1. Blue Tack Magic

When a drawer is bursting at the seams, effective organisation becomes crucial. Utilising boxes and dividers can be a game-changer, but they often shift around. Grab that Blue Tack, the unsung hero of organisation. Place a few circles of blue tack underneath your boxes, and voila! Your drawers stay neat and tidy, no matter how often you open them. It's a simple yet effective solution to maintain order.

2. Repurposing Business Card Holders

Creativity extends to repurposing everyday items for organisational purposes. Take, for example, old business card holders. Need easy-to-access pockets for small items like hair clips, band-aids, screws, or paper clips? Cut up an old business card holder or the sheets with business card pockets. Attach them to the inside of cupboards with a bit of blue tack. Suddenly, all those small, hard-to-organise items become a decorative and organised feature inside your cupboards.

3. Embrace a Pop of Colour

Injecting a pop of colour into your organisational scheme can do wonders for your creative mindset. Consider having a colour theme for your boxes and choose a style that resonates with you. While I prefer white and see-through containers for a minimalist look, colour can bring a space to life. For added flair, create small holes in the bottom of colourful boxes to discreetly hide cords. Remember, moderation is key—stick to a preferred style to maintain a cohesive and visually pleasing environment.

4. Find Your Organisational Style

Experimenting with different organisational tools is encouraged, but finding your preferred style is crucial. Avoid overwhelming yourself with too many styles of organising boxes. Instead, identify what works best for you and keep similar boxes together in related spaces. Consistency in style promotes a harmonious and functional organisation throughout your space.

This week, challenge yourself to think outside the conventional organisational box. Embrace the synergy between organisation and creativity by incorporating these unique tips into your space. From the stability of blue tack to the versatility of repurposed business card holders, these ideas will not only keep your space tidy but also inspire your creative endeavours.
