Mum shows off her immaculately organised home after three weeks of lockdown – but some think she’s gone too far
A MUM has revealed how she has kept busy in lockdown making her home immaculately organised.
The Sydney-based homeowner shared numerous photos of her picture-perfect interiors, with items neatly folded or stacked.
The incredibly tidy home was praised on Facebook, with people saying how “satisfying” her home organisation skills were - but not everyone was a fan.
Some people were quick to point out that she didn’t need as many plastic dividers for individual items, and others said her tidying was not practical for daily use.
One person commented: “Looks great but did you really need to put the Koh (surface cleaner) in a box when it's already in a box?
“And the shaving cream and deodorants in their own boxes too? I'm not sure what that adds?”
Others said that the woman’s neatly stacked kitchen pots and pans would not stay that way if used on a daily basis.
The woman shared how it took her three weeks of coronavirus isolation to transform her home.
She said: “I have organised my whole house. It didn't happen overnight but I eventually got it all done.
“Now I need to label everything. Not sure if I should buy a Cricut maker or buy them already made.”

Despite any criticisms, the “queen of organisation” as she was nicknamed, defended her tidying methods, saying the plastic tubs make her system “easy to maintain.”
Her pristine linen cabinet features duvets, blankets, towels and tea towels folded to perfection.
Meanwhile, her cleaning bottles and sprays are neatly arranged under the sink in plastic trays.
Her beauty products - such as cotton buds, razors, tampons and hair slides - are arranged in plastic shelving drawers so each item is visible and can be seen.
In the pantry her food is labelled in containers, with cutlery being laid out so there is “no jumbling” in the drawer.
She revealed the secret to making your home look minimalistic is to have a separate room for housing spares of items such as food and towels.
She also avoids keeping items that she hasn’t finished, such as multiple half-eaten cereal boxes or numerous BBQ sauces.
The woman said: “I let everything run low and use up what I have before buying more.”
