This may sound very obvious and simple but people often forget it;
Group similar items TOGETHER.
If you want to make "systems" in your home you have to have a specific place for your items to go.
For example:
movies with movies (close to the television)
socks matched up with their other half (in the closet)
pens, paper, pencils, tape, & other office supplies in your desk (in the office)
keys with the other sets of keys (close to the door)
When there is a home base for these items the less likely you will lose them.
Also when they are all in the correct spot you will realize how much you have or what you need more of.
One step ahead: Once this is done, it's easy to "de-junk"
When you are looking at all of your socks you realize you can throw some away, match up some odd ones, or buy new ones. This will make life a little simpler for the entire family.
