Ready for a little organization in your life? Here are some amazing command center ideas to inspire you to get started.

Amazing Command Center Ideas to keep your family organized.

My three kiddos head back to school in just a couple weeks, which always sparks the desire to get organized. I am a huge fan of “command centers”. They are a great way to keep track of activities and menus for the week, while also providing an organized drop-zone for keys and mail. I love that each command center offers something different to make it exactly what is needed for each individual family. I have my own small command center in my office space, which includes a calendar to keep track of my blog posting schedule and a wire organizer to sort papers.
