Organizing can feel like massive undertaking, which is probably why a lot of us tend to put it off (and probably more than once, at that!) But organizing doesn’t have to span your entire house — in fact, if you break up your organizing into quick and easy tasks, you can accomplish a lot in surprisingly little time!
In order to help shift the way we think about organizing, I’ve put together a big list of mini organizing tasks you can do in under 5 minutes. Even the busiest of us can find ourselves with 5 minutes to spare from time to time, and using those minutes to get a little more organized can be time well spent!

24 Easy Organization Ideas That Only Take 5 Minutes
1. Make Your Bed
Straighten out the sheets, fluff those pillows, and smooth out your duvet. It takes about 30 seconds, and it makes a huge different in how clean and organized your bedroom feels!
2. Pick Up Clothes
Go around the room (or around the house, if you’re feeling ambitious) and pick up all the clothes off the floor. Put them in your hamper if they’re dirty, or hang them up if they’re still pretty clean.
3. Put Laundry Away
Take a few minutes to put your clean, folded laundry in the drawers and closets where it belongs.
4. Put Shoes Away
Take the mountain of shoes in the entryway or laundry room and put them away. This used to be a huge, annoying issue at our house, so I instituted a limit of “one pair of shoes per person in the mud room” rule. That has helped quite a bit!
