I sometimes put in picture frame a pretty card or pictures etc. But I file or shred alot of things. I so need this lady to come to my house and help me organize. Ha ha. Shes a genius. Oh my God my house would be a sanctuary if I had a organized house like her. Looks amazing!
You are so right about the greeting cards. In going through some stuff last year, I ran across a ton of cards that I had gotten over the years. At first I felt bad about throwing most of them out, but after the first few times, it really felt freeing.
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! Thank you so much for talking about the dreaded mail situation. I have struggled with it for years, and most likely, will for years to come. I am currently trying to deal with it on a daily basis. Have tried it many times before but always ended up not following through. I've gotta work on discipline, I guess. Anyway, thanks again for the many tips and you gave me quite a bit to think about.
I happen to have stumbled upon you by accident and it has changed my life I spent the weekend organizing my garage and seriously it has made me want to do everything so slowly but surely I am working on it all but I don't have a home office I do everything off the kitchen table which makes my table a mess it always has papers on it can you do a video on how to have a small space in kitchen for paperwork pls!
Congratulations Alejandra and on your upcoming nuptials and new home. I really needed this video...I need so much help with this.

Hi Alejandra: I'm a student of English and I would like to tell you that I love your canal. I find your pronunciation is very easy to understand, and the subtitles are very helpful I'm learning how to organize and at the same time I'm listening to English speakers. Can I make you a question? where are your from? I love your accent!!! Thank you
You are such a happy person. I love it. Great tips, too! Good luck with your move! (I saw your "boxes" post on facebook and I can't wait to see your video on that). You rock!!!! :)
I am so happy to have found your channel recently. I've been enjoying your videos a great deal, and finding them very helpful. Thank you so much for all the wonderful ideas and suggestions you share! Best of luck on your move, though you're so organized I'm sure it will go smoothly. Congratulations too, on your upcoming wedding. I look forward to all your future videos! :)
great video! I'd been wondering about the contents of those bins - since paperwork is not my strong suit AND I organize things visually - usually in bins and baskets. So thanks for the details on your system!
wow! You & I are a lot alike! I too have a separate file for my BBB coupons. I laughed aloud when I saw yours. Love your idea of sorting my exp date vs. category. This is why my current system isn't working! Now I get it...so simple, but didn't think of it and didn't want the coupons out all the time. :) Love your videos! Much Gratitude!
Great video and so timely too. I've been procrastinating going to my mailbox. You're an inspiration. Keep the videos coming - they're awesome and inspire people to get their everyday life in control! :)
Hello! I love your videos. They have been very informative and helpful. I am slowly moving in to my new/smaller home. I am planning each storage space for organized storage but it is not easy to map out. What is the best way to organize the planning process?
I think I have watched everyone of you videos and have already gotten some ideas for my own home. I need to find some of the bins. I don't think we have a container store here.I don't want to order online. I have to see it in person. I like your pantry organization. Thanks!!
great tips. building a work/office center so these are so helpful. i had a friend miss my baby shower because she didnt check her mail for two weeks. whoops!
What to do with old greeting cards: Scan, store file in an online storage system and use after a year or two to remind a friend that you remember that card. Or use the photo as background for an online photo album. Actual greeting card, show the photo to kid if you have any and use as decoration for boxes or notebooks. On Christmas I could hang them on a tree to remind me of the ppl who sent it and by New Year, that's when I dispose them for new cards. :)
I'm going this evening to buy a shredder!! Hahaha!! As always thanks for sharing you have no idea how many peoples lives you are organizing by your videos:-)
Great video! Id like to know what you do with your bills once they are paid - do you file them or shred them right away? If you recommend filing them - how long do you keep them?
You rock Alejandra! I can relate as I thought people always check their mail on a daily basis. I have to deal with junk, bills, etc. right away....can't stand extra papers laying around either. :)
Love this channel, I've completely transformed my office since subscribing, do you scan and store your documents digitally, if so would love to see a vid, thanks in advance.
I love your videos Alejandra! Can't wait for your move to see what you create there. Anyhow, can the Elfa system easily be taken apart? Are you going to take what you have now into the new home? Xoxo Jess
Love your videos, you are so detailed and all your information is so helpful! I really liked the idea of filing your coupons by expiration date vs categories, makes so much sense. Do you keep all of your bill statements (i.e., cable, phone, cell phone) and if so, how long do you keep them for before shredding them?
Great organizing tips, Alejandra! I need to buy an Elfa Shelf System because mail at our house is usually on the diningroom table, the kitchen counter, or the desk in the office. LOL Your ideas are great and thank you, for sharing them! :)
That's a neat way to organize mail. I don't have much of a system for mail. (and I do need something, to make it more manageable) I just thought of a cabinet that has 6 open shelves labled and the other is a system that can set on a countertop or desk that is stackable. I want to checkout some places that are reasonable (like a dollar store to see what I can find)
I'm not in to video responses but I will say that USPS Informed Delivery is a great service. I used a PO Box for security so don't get to the PO everyday. With informed delivery, I DO CHECK my emails everyday so I know what came in at the PO. If something is important, I may take an unscheduled trip to the PO. If not, just 2-3 per week. The only drawback is that some bulkier items don't always get scanned in by USPS, so there are a few surprises. Works for me...
Thank you for the tips. Have you thought about more physical focus on the actual baskets so we can see the labels, the depths and the way they are mounted?
why do i need to check mail every day? is that a matter of opinion or preference or is there a real reason? Im the type who hates checking mail and often use online billing. I check mail about 2-3 times a week...is there a problem with that?
I think as a nation we get way too much unwanted mail, most people aren't so organised so they just turn into accidental hoarders because of it, it can also lead to anxiety then depression.
My husband's uncle, a super nice guy, is a paper hoarder. He is afraid to throw away old papers, and has stacks all over his flat. He wants to move but cannot due to the amount of paper. He owns the building, but I imagine it is a fire hazard. I wish someone could help him, but no one in my husband's family seems to care. I guess they figure it is his business.
That is very possible. They are a weird family. I stopped going to their family functions years ago. I have been married to my husband for many years, but I am still an outsider. I would not even get a direct invite. Something is definitely wrong with that family. The uncle, however, is a super nice guy.
Lovely video content! Sorry for the intrusion, I would appreciate your thoughts. Have you considered - Mahorrla Control Clutter Method (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is a great one of a kind product for decluttering your home minus the hard work. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my cooworker got amazing results with it.
I work at Bed, Bath and Beyond in the Beauty and Wellness Department. Just letting you know you can use the 20% off coupons per item you have. For example: if you had 20 items, you would be able to use twenty 20% off coupons. The 20% off coupons automatically go to the most expensive items you have. For the $5 off every 15.00 you spend, you are only allowed to use a certain amount.
Do you have any tips on how to start organizing? I want to do this, but I have a zillion unsorted boxes and papers (mine, my husband's, and my two boys' school papers, etc.). HELP!!!
Im becoming such a dork lol ! I got excited to see a new video from you. hehe You are so right! My office is the most cluttered area! I will definately do some type of system and then I will show some before and after pics ;) . Above comment question...are good just wonderingyour response? Lauren-Rose
hi alejandra i am about to move our home office from one room to another ( basement to first floor) and would ike to know if you have some good advice for me, thanks a lot , big hugs
The EASIEST Way to Take Care of the MAIL, is to DO IT D-A-I-L-Y. Better to Spend just a Few Quick Minute's rather than an Hour Later. It's Easy to KNOW What IS Trash, Bill's or Whatever. Put a DUE DATE, in the Top Right-Hand Corner of the Envelope, Write the Due Date on it. Odd-Ball Stuff, put in a Pile. GET A NICE LETTER-HOLDER that has "2-3" Slot's. Put the Thing's with Due-Date's in the 1st Slot, and Thing's that Need to be Looked at in the 2nd Slot. Then, Throw Away Trash. D-O-N-E !!! GET a Plastic-Divider that has at least "2" Slot's. One for Receipt's, the Other for Coupon's. Put the Plastic-Divider in the Holder in the 2nd or 3rd Slot of Letter-Holder. This Way, EVERYTHING IS THERE, at Hand. You Don't N-e-e-d Several Bin's, that Take-Up Space and are Not Necessary, for just a Few Thing's. A Letter-Holder Take's-Up Minimal Space.
I have saved my cards for 18 years and they are definitely in a couple different boxes. Maybe I'll go through them and try to throw away the ones that are nice but don't have a particular message or anything in them.
Wish your newer videos were a little more like this one. While polished is good, you subtracted some of the genuineness, just a thought. I like your sassy attitude in this one "Open your mail!" "You know what happens when you don't pay your bills online"!
When I went to Office Depot to find Poly envelopes, he looked at me like i didn't know what I was talking about.Then proceeded to tell me they were only sold online, lol…Wjhat!?
I love your system! ♥ I'm really jealous of the American coupon system - in Canada we can usually only use one per product per transaction. I want to organize lots of coupons too! :)
Don't you get your mail delivered thru the letterbox on the front door ? I just heard you say "when you come back inside". Do people in the US have their mail delivered to an outdoor location ?
Wait a minute, you can just put mail you want to send in your OWN mailbox and they get sent for you?! THAT'S SO HANDY!! omg why doesn't my country have that! :O haha
Finland has that, too. You put the mail in your own mail box and add this plastic clip on the lid that says "Posti" (as in Post Office in Finnish), and the person who brings in your mail takes your outgoing mail with him. Too bad I live in a block of flats (a high-rise, an apartment house, or whatever you want to call it), where there's letter drops on the doors, so your mail just drops on the floor in front your door... Dropping mail the other way just drops it on the corridor floor, that's commons sense. So I gotta take the mail to the post office to mail it.
Yes, in the US we have a little flag you put up if you have outgoing mail. If you live in an apartment, there is usually a separate box at the mailbox center, where everyone can put their outgoing mail.
If you took my mail and line them up they would make it from the East to the West. I am not kidding. I hate hate paper trail. I am going to try this. Thank you. HUGGS Terrie
@Jamaicancutie -She is just very passionate about what she does to help people and I 'm sure you're just as passionate about the things you care about.
great video! but i could never organize coupons by exp. month personally. i find, for me, having a binder and tabs (bath items, shampoo/cond., oral care, food, etc.) works best, esp. if you do a lot of couponing! :)
Alejandra or any other reader who sees this: What do you recommend me to do with my bills if I already pay everything online? Just shred them?? I need advice please...
Min 1:22 "people hate organizing paper..." haha! how ironic is this?...watching the video as I organize my store receipts *sighs & rolls eyes* but somebody's gotta do it!
Why keep envelopes? bills are yours, write the due date directly on bill if needed, You can ask for due date adjusted to meet your pay periods. Use the KISS principle [keep it simple & sweet] one folder/place for paid bills. You need to retain any Legal Documents, Tax related, warranty items or any bills with potential for dispute based on your experience. When the next month's bill arrives showing previous payment do you need to keep it?
Paper paper paper!!!!uuuuggggg.....my biggest problem!!! I have a question, do you keep your paid bills and for how long I just started scanning mine into my computer so I keep them there and throw the paper out, I figured since the bills I do pay online don't give me a paper receipt I am okay just scanning them in the computer.I also copy and paste my confirmation numbers from my online bills into word so I don't print them out, what do you think?
when i m not in the mood to tidy the house, which is very often, i listen to your videos to get in the mood
Thanks for the tip. I will do this too, now.
Ioana Georgia you are so right. My husband is always like “🙄ur organizing again.”
I sometimes put in picture frame a pretty card or pictures etc. But I file or shred alot of things. I so need this lady to come to my house and help me organize. Ha ha. Shes a genius. Oh my God my house would be a sanctuary if I had a organized house like her. Looks amazing!
Gosh I love it: "If it piles up on the outside, it piles up on the inside"… no wonder I'm almost crazy
You are so right about the greeting cards. In going through some stuff last year, I ran across a ton of cards that I had gotten over the years. At first I felt bad about throwing most of them out, but after the first few times, it really felt freeing.
I noticed some say it was repetitive but THATS OK, some folks need to you to go over it a couple times. Thanks, it worked for me!
Filing coupons by expiration date is such a smart idea!
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! Thank you so much for talking about the dreaded mail situation. I have struggled with it for years, and most likely, will for years to come.

Great organizing video! What do you do with charitable organizations that keep sending you mail solicitations contributions to help them out?
You rock Alejandra! I can relate as I thought people always check their mail on a daily basis. I have to deal with junk, bills, etc. right away....can't stand extra papers laying around either. :)

Oh that shelf sure is organized

Do you have a good system for a transition, like upcoming moves?
I'd like to know the answer to that question as well! Great video!
Great tips!! Thank you!
I love your videos so much! They are so helpful :) Question, do you keep receipts? If you do, how do you organize them? Thanks :)
Wish your newer videos were a little more like this one. While polished is good, you subtracted some of the genuineness, just a thought. I like your sassy attitude in this one "Open your mail!" "You know what happens when you don't pay your bills online"!

Who else is here in 2018!?
Please... videos about moving out; to a new house, condo..... it's crazy and so messy and I'm really going insane. Thanks! I love your videos.
I love your system! ♥ I'm really jealous of the American coupon system - in Canada we can usually only use one per product per transaction. I want to organize lots of coupons too! :)
Darn - wish I had known that a long time ago. Thanks for the info!
Don't you get your mail delivered thru the letterbox on the front door ? I just heard you say "when you come back inside". Do people in the US have their mail delivered to an outdoor location ?
Canash100, I believe that subject is covered in her "How to Organize Papers on Your Desk" Video that is about 4 videos after this one.
News to me too! What does Alejandra know that we don't?!
Wait a minute, you can just put mail you want to send in your OWN mailbox and they get sent for you?! THAT'S SO HANDY!! omg why doesn't my country have that! :O haha
Finland has that, too. You put the mail in your own mail box and add this plastic clip on the lid that says "Posti" (as in Post Office in Finnish), and the person who brings in your mail takes your outgoing mail with him. Too bad I live in a block of flats (a high-rise, an apartment house, or whatever you want to call it), where there's letter drops on the doors, so your mail just drops on the floor in front your door...

Yes, in the US we have a little flag you put up if you have outgoing mail. If you live in an apartment, there is usually a separate box at the mailbox center, where everyone can put their outgoing mail.
congratutations!
i love this video!
I need this system!!!!!
If you took my mail and line them up they would make it from the East to the West. I am not kidding. I hate hate paper trail. I am going to try this. Thank you. HUGGS Terrie
Paper/mail is my worst thing to organize. It just stacks up, I hate it!! I'm really going to try this, I need to do something!!
Do you have synopsis sheets/reviews of your videos???? Just wondering.
@Jamaicancutie -She is just very passionate about what she does to help people and I 'm sure you're just as passionate about the things you care about.
your amazing!
Hi Amy, I notice she doesn't favor one place but she likes The Container Store, Staples and also, on occasion the Dollar Tree. Hope this helps!
Can you talk about the different types of shelving that's out there?
great video! but i could never organize coupons by exp. month personally. i find, for me, having a binder and tabs (bath items, shampoo/cond., oral care, food, etc.) works best, esp. if you do a lot of couponing! :)
Very informative video :-)
Where did you the pull out jewerly organizer?
Hey just wanted to know if you help people organize their house? i would love if you could help me.
Alejandra or any other reader who sees this: What do you recommend me to do with my bills if I already pay everything online? Just shred them?? I need advice please...
Min 1:22 "people hate organizing paper..." haha! how ironic is this?...watching the video as I organize my store receipts *sighs & rolls eyes* but somebody's gotta do it!
You have a great voice
Have you found a shredder that is works better than others? Mine are always breaking down.
Great!!!
Why keep envelopes? bills are yours, write the due date directly on bill if needed, You can ask for due date adjusted to meet your pay periods. Use the KISS principle [keep it simple & sweet] one folder/place for paid bills. You need to retain any Legal Documents, Tax related, warranty items or any bills with potential for dispute based on your experience. When the next month's bill arrives showing previous payment do you need to keep it?
Paper paper paper!!!!uuuuggggg.....my biggest problem!!! I have a question, do you keep your paid bills and for how long I just started scanning mine into my computer so I keep them there and throw the paper out, I figured since the bills I do pay online don't give me a paper receipt I am okay just scanning them in the computer.I also copy and paste my confirmation numbers from my online bills into word so I don't print them out, what do you think?
@homeorganizing How do you get the bedbathandbeyond coupons?
Where did she get the metal bins system?
