Please share your suggestions for unconventional places to take donated items (for example, a local florist’s shop for empty flower vases). If you mention a specific business or organization, please include your city, state, province, region, and/or country in your answer.You can donate blankets and clothing to nursing homes/assisted living centers. There are often people whose family have forgotten them completely. They use the same outfits over and over until they only have one or two things. I saw this first hand when my Mom was in the nursing home.
Describe an activity or interest for which you acquire far more supplies or materials than you tend to use over a reasonable period of time.I often buy more clothes than I can use because the search for a good blouse or pants is a big diversion for me from getting work done at home.
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.You do a great job of answering questions, but I don't have any pressing concerns right now. I would like you to discuss how one stops leaving things in bags on the floor. This is a problem I am having right now with my dining room space. My floor space gets cluttered because I don't want to think about where these things must live in my house.
