Here is an organizational tip that only takes a minute or two every day, and between 5 and 15 minutes once a week:
Keep a basket in a convenient location on each floor. For a mere 60 seconds each day, toss items in the basket that do not belong in the space they are in. Once a week, or whenever the basket gets full, empty the basket returning all of it's contents to it's rightful place.
Alternatively, you can have a basket for each member of the family. For a couple of minutes each day, have family members collect personal belongings that are left out and toss them into the basket. At regular intervals have family members return the items in their basket to their rightful place.
Keeps clutter to a minimum, and saves you from running around the house randomly putting items away as you find them. Instead you will be doing it all at once.
Wicker baskets with material lining are a beautiful choice for highly-visible areas, or plastic bins in primary colours can be used as well, and are available at the DollarStore.
