I’m trying to get organized. Specifically it’s my spices that I’m trying to organize. Here’s what I posted on facebook last week.
There were quite a few comments with a variety of suggestions and I loved each and every comment. It seems as if I’m not the only one with this issue, which makes me feel a little better. (a little..LOL)
One comment that was left for me, included a link to this article from the Toronto Star. This idea really hit home and its’ inspired me to do the same. Please click on the link here to read more details.
However I know that the first step to getting my spices organized involves actually LABELLING the containers.
Of course, my amazing brother P-touch Label Maker came in handy for this step!
Within a few minutes, I was able to label my spices with the help of the brother p-touch Label Maker . I have no idea how I lived without a Label Maker before!
Final Result:
Here’s the steps that were involved to get to this point:
-took out all the spices that were hidden in my cupboard.
-dump out all the spices.
-wash the containers in the dishwasher
-run to Bulk Barn and bought a LITTLE bit of every type of spice imaginable.
-run home and take out my “brother P-touch Label Maker” and start the process of getting organized.
-repeat these steps in January 2018!!
Hope this blog post helped you as much as it helped me and my spices.

Recently I’ve been introduced to two products that are making my life SO much easier more organized.
Item #1: P-touch Label Maker (by brother)
Here’s a few features that I’m loving:
• Large, easy-type keyboard and convenient top loading tape design. (seriously it took me a few minutes to figure it out – and trust me I’m challenged in this area)
• Large, graphical display which lets you view text and layout before printing.
• Intuitive one-touch keys support quick, easy label formatting.
• Create detailed labels with up to 2 lines of text and graphics.
• Create labels for indoor or outdoor use. (very cool)
• Split back tapes for easy peel and stick. (easy peasy)
• Select the language of your choice
• 1-year limited warranty and free support for the life of your product.
I immediately used my labeller to help me organize my closet. Now I can find my upcoming Chanuka Decorations in seconds. #happydance
Plus I can find my cords in seconds. (how on earth did I accumulate so many cords?Don’t ask!!)
Item #2 – A Mobile Colour Scanner (by brother)
As a sales rep, I’m always asked to scan forms and receipts back to head office. I hate to say it but it takes a whole whack of time when using the scan feature on my printer. Not to mention as a blogger, I’m also asked to sign the occasional contract and send it back to a publicist. Now I can use this handy printer that takes no space at all with no need to click, click, click (you know what I mean)
Again, this scanner has some cool features:
• Scans up to 8 ppm in both colour and black&white
• Powerful software bundle including document and business card management programs.
• Compact and lightweight
• Powered via the included USB cable – no wall outlet required (HOW COOL IS THAT?)
• Easily scans documents, photos, plastic I.D. cards and more, from business card size up to 8.5″(W) x 32″(L)
I’m over the moon how small and compact this scanner is. The fact that it doesn’t require any batteries is a huge bonus!
