Put away the label maker and pull out your paintbrush.

Organizing can be a daunting task. Dividing things into plastic bins and printing out hundreds of tiny labels can bog you down. Suddenly, your space feels less like a home and more like a sterile, research lab.

Instead, ditch the plastic and filing and add some colorful design into your DIY organization project by color coding. You can get the same job done, and your kitchen, home office or living room will be a lot prettier by the time you're done.

It's like living with the world's neatest unicorn.
