Household Chores Made Easy +40 Awesome Printables To Help You

Use this collection of awesome free printables designed specifically to help you at home. From household chores including cleaning, organizing, and meal planning to printables to help you manage your home and family needs.

How we live in chaos

When it comes to my daily life, I used to find that I spent a lot of time thinking things through in my head without ever making a note of what was important.

Eventually, these things would fall to the wayside because I would forget about them. It’s simply something that we all do.

Now that’s not always a bad thing but without acting on the changes each of us wants to make we won’t get anywhere, we’ll just firefight our way through the days, often stuck in the same routine.

Making changes to simple things and getting on top of them can really give you a sense of achievement and control, and can certainly help take the stress out of things in the longer term.

This is why we have created these printables designed to help you get on top of all the chaos in your life at home.

Take the stress out of household chores

These household printables help you focus on the individual things that make up your day-to-day lives at home.

They are all different, but all equally important, and all deserve to be managed in a way that suits us without being forgotten about.

The great thing is, you can print each of these individually, finding the ones that you need for any specific household chores or tasks, and put them in your planner.

Better yet, you can get them all together in a bundle and make your own home management binder so that you have everything you need in one easy go-to location.

Simply print and go!

What is a home management binder?

A home management binder has so many different names. You might know it as:

  • Home Management Binder
  • Mom Binder
  • Family Binder
  • Home Planner
  • Household Planner

They all aim to do the same thing – keep your home life organized and manageable.

A home management binder is a binder or planner that includes pages and sheets that help you organize your home life.

These could include general household chores and tasks to keep a home clean, family and friend information, emergency contact information, events and dates, little notes and reminders, meal planning, exercise, and health.

These planners are designed to make things easier and have what you need for home management at your fingertips.

Anyone can benefit from a home management binder such as couples, families, or even guests who come to stay or house sit.

A home management planner can also be made accessible to anyone in the family, so you might not want to include sensitive information.

How do I set up a home management binder?

How do I set up a home management binder

When it comes to creating a home management binder, it’s a good idea to choose the things that are important to have a smooth and happy family home.

Home management means something different to everyone. Some people have a home management planner for themselves, for a couple, or for a small or big family.

So what goes into your home management binder really depends on your needs and the sort of household chores that you need to get on top of.

What is in a home management binder?

Let’s take a look at some of the things you can put in a home management binder:

  • Household chores and tasks
  • Health details and trackers
  • Quick bill and finance information
  • Workout logs and trackers
  • Meal planning
  • Contact list and friend information
  • Garden planning
  • Holiday plans/ideas

So now you have an idea of what could go into your home management binder, let’s take a look at how to put one together.

What do I need to make a home management binder?

First things first, gather what you need.

  • Planner pages
    The first thing you need to do is source your home management sheets or pages.

    There are various places around the internet where you could gather your pages or you could simply get all of them all for free right here.

  • A folder/ring binder
    You need somewhere to keep all of your pages together and safe.

    You can use a ring binder or if you prefer something more compact then try out a planner folder.

  • Hole Punch
    You will need a hole punch so you can insert your pages into your ring binder or another folder you choose to use.

  • Dividers
    An organized binder is a happy binder. To keep your home management binder easy to use and easy to navigate, you’re going to want some dividers or tabs.

    The best way to organize a home management planner is by categorizing it into sections that cover all of the household chores that matter to you, such as health, bills, meal planners, etc.

    It might be hard to find dividers that are specific to your categories so I recommend printing custom labels.

    You can find free printable divider pages that can be resized for use in a planner style or ring binder style. You can also find some simple ring binder dividers and some pretty planner dividers. Use a simple label maker or stickers to customize your dividers.

  • Pockets/wallets
    This is optional but I think having plastic pockets or wallets included in your binder is really helpful. You can store all sorts of important things in them and it also gives additional space.

  • Stickers (optional)
    People like to use stickers to draw attention to certain aspects of their planner and to help them plan easier. There is a great collection of free printable planner stickers on our site or buy bundles of them online.

If you want a super-easy way to start your home management binder then I recommend grabbing the Household Planner. It’s perfect for beginners!

We also have hundreds of free printable planner pages that you can add to your home management binder. You really don’t need to go anywhere else to get all of the printables that you need, for any household chores or whatever you need to organize your life.

You can get them all right here. It really doesn’t get any better than that.

Why organizing your home is important

Having an organized home can really benefit your mental health and clarity. It’s not just about having a tidy home or being on top of your household chores, it’s about having something that the whole family can be involved in.

Organizing doesn’t just mean decluttering, tidying, and doing things every day that will make your life easier, it’s also about having something ready for when you need it.

It’s about knowing where the important aspects of your home life are organized, so you can access it when you need to.

Using a home management binder to organize your home can be that breath of fresh air that you need. It gives you mental clarity and helps you to be in control of your home life. It’s always better to be out of the chaos than in it.

Does being organized make you happy?

Yes! According to selecthealth.org, being organized has many benefits. These include reducing stress, helping you sleep better, making healthier food choices, increasing productivity, and improving relationships.

Who wouldn’t want that?

I know it takes a bit of time to start and maintain but it is definitely worth the benefits. I’d dedicate some of my time to creating a home management binder to reap the benefits of a happy and organized life long term.

Does being organized make you happy

If you were looking for a reason to create a home management binder then I hope you’ve found one.

For a small amount of effort at the start, you could really reduce the stress from your life, the daily household chores for a cleaner home, and have a happy, organized family.
