For which collections or categories of stuff do you find it difficult to obtain or employ organizing and storage solutions, and why?Household bills, sheet music (manuscript and printed), current project materials (notes, sketches, recent draft printouts), electronic documents including all the above
What’s your personal favorite inexpensive or free organizing solution? We’d love to hear about furniture, shipping boxes, food containers, craft supplies, or other unlikely items that you’ve ingeniously repurposed to hold your stuff.I like to use the boxes that one of my son's snacks come in and the boxes from our food and coffee subscriptions
Here’s your chance to ask Gayle and Ed any question you’re curious about. It need not be related to this survey’s topic(s). If we think that your question—and our answer—might be useful or instructive to The Clutter Fairy Weekly audience, we’ll share them in an upcoming episode.Are there any good bulk scanners for making PDFs out of paper documents and then a good way to organize them? Right now, I can scan with my printer but then I have to manually rename and file all the files.
