Breaking Down a Big Project | Paper Primer | Part of the Landscape—canceled

Big organizing projects can disrupt your routines and leave you feeling swamped and overwhelmed. We’ll suggest tips to help you break down and keep control of big projects.

Almost everyone who struggles with clutter can point to paper as one of their challenges. We’ll offer a short primer on managing the paper you decide to keep.

How do you deal with things that have been in your life for as long as you care to remember? We’ll talk about dealing with stuff that’s become part of the landscape.

In episode #159 of The Clutter Fairy Weekly, Gayle Goddard, professional organizer and owner of The Clutter Fairy in Houston, Texas, discusses these topics and answers questions from our viewers and listeners.
