My incentive is a new water softener when I'm done...never had one and soooooo looking forward to it. <br/><br/>I forgot to take before pictures and then I got one section all torn apart and developed a migraine....only the 3rd one in my life. So now my basement is even worse than it was, and I don't know when I'll get back to it. *sad huh?* I decided to work on my basement.

I have a one year old that is so busy, I even had to put a lock on my fridge! My only suggestion is storage solutions with doors and a lock! Those little ones can be pretty clever when they want to be can't they. Maybe someone else can help us here. Thanks, Laura Oh Jan I hear you on little ones getting into everything.

My problem is keeping everything OUT of their reach. This leads to a lot of clutter at the end of my arms reach. What do you do about that? The top of my fridge looks like that mountain that Richard Dreyfus made out of potatoes in ET!! Laura, I have a two year old and a child who is six and has autism.

I've been a little unorganized in getting pics up and posting on it and putting the button up, but I am following along and working towards the 30 days. I'll probably end up posting the before and after pics in one big post. Sigh. These are so good Laura!

I'm still going through my paperwork. I did not realize how much I had. I am seeing a little progress (someone may not see a difference, but I am).<br/>I am also going to use your idea about only keeping enough stuff that will fit into space I have for it.<br/>Thanks Laura Good information!

Originally the whole room was going to be craft, but now it will be a craft zone, book zone, and from your post I've been inspired to do a kids mini craft zone. Then the closet is a storage zone... but that's a whole other project. I'm still unsure of the best placements of the zones. But that's why I change furniture around all the time.

Swimming equipement and coats/jackets/bags. What I'll do is label a couple hooks for each person in the family. I had pegs in my last house. It was a free for all and always looked like a mess. It wasn't behind a closed door either. I think labels will help us out this time around. You’ve explained it beautifully!
