Which of the following statements describe the help you’ve received in managing your organizing projects? (Check all that apply or have applied in the past.) |
|
Where do you shop for organizing products? (Check all that apply.) |
|
Describe an organizing product, resource, book, video, or other solution that you bought but never used—at least not for the purpose for which you purchased it. | I haven’t bought anything that I haven’t used but I saved magazine holders and desk trays from my husband’s stash for close to ten years before letting them go. |
For which collections or categories of stuff do you find it difficult to obtain or employ organizing and storage solutions, and why? | I had three large drawers in a built-in buffet. It’s 15 months since I moved and I still haven’t found a place for all of it. Just miscellaneous stuff that I don’t want to get rid of. |
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. | Any pretty, sturdy box. Christmas card boxes hold photos, pens, buttons. Cosmetic boxes minus their inserts hold travel supplies and cosmetic samples. Interesting jars or tins for cardamom pods or cinnamon sticks or tea bags. I used wooden clementine crates in the garage for gardening supplies. My sister said I had a box hoarding problem and I reluctantly threw away about 20 before I moved. |
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. | How to organize old ( >100years) photos |
