30 Day Challenge
Day Five: Remotes Controlled
Day Five: Remotes Controlled
Tired of searching for the remotes? Designate a box, bin or basket for the remote controls for your TV, DVD player, and stereo, etc. and always remember to return them when you are done.
This one is easy-peasy, yes?
I know many people have a universal control for their entertainment system <<<jealous>>> but, unfortunately, I have, I think, no less than FIVE remote controls (TV, cable, DVD, VHS - yes, I still have one, Home Theater Surround Sound - what a mess). So I have a beautiful black lacquered box with a lid sitting on my coffee table that holds all my remotes.... organized... within reach... and out of sight = de-cluttered = PERFECT. (Next stop, my guestroom remotes!) So, if you are like me, a multi remote-control owner, here's your answer... organize them in a decorative way! Some of the following options are ready-made stations for remotes, so you have choices on how you prefer to organize them.

Ok, cheesy but I giggled so I couldn't resist including this one!
Look closely - An old sterling flatware box
Wouldn't this be cute in a little girl's room? Learning organizational skills early!
There's no excuse for not doing today's challenge. But the most important step in this challenge it to follow through - remember to return them when you are done.
Your Assignment for Day Five:
Find a storage box for your remotes.
* Be sure to take notice of the size of your remote and choose a box with an accommodating size. This can be easily done for every TV in your home
Good Luck!
