Cozy Up Your Home This October

As the leaves change and the days grow shorter, October is the perfect time to bring warmth and order into your home. Organizing now not only makes your space more functional, it also sets the stage for a cozy and stress-free season ahead.

Start with your entryway. This high-traffic zone can quickly become chaotic with shoes, jackets and bags. Adding hooks, baskets or a bench with hidden storage makes it easy for the whole family to keep things tidy.

Next, focus on living spaces. Rotate lighter summer decor for warmer accents like throw blankets, pillows and candles. Simplify surfaces so seasonal touches can be emphasized without feeling crowded.

Don’t forget about your kitchen and pantry. Fall brings more time spent cooking and baking. Clearing expired items and organizing staples now means you’ll be ready for hearty soups, cozy meals and holiday recipes.

Finally, take time to review your storage areas—basements, garages or attics. Contain summer gear and bring forward cold-weather essentials like coats, gloves and decor. This seasonal reset makes transitions seamless.

At Chaos To Order, we believe getting organized is all about being prepared and efficient for what’s to come. October is a great time to edit, refresh and create order before holidays and winter are in full swing.
