Always have been, but I refuse to think that I always will be. :-) Do you have any other tips or advice to share on this subject? Like more specifics on how you organize various papers? I'm going to re-read your post about your desk because I know you share some advice there, but if you would ever consider doing a "pile-buster" post that would be AWESOME. (And if you already have, please forgive me... I'm rather new to your blog.) Thanks for all the wonderful information. Your blog is one piece of a big puzzle that has given me a whole new attitude about my house and my abilities as a mom and a housekeeper. Guilt and frustration have been replace by an empowered and confident attitude! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I am a compulsive piler!!

She needs a place for everything, so we'll tackle it! I'll take some pictures and send them to you. Like you I hate piles and clutter! I have a stack of scrapbook stuff I'm going to tackle tonight. I'll take some shots of that too and send it to you! Laura I’m working on my kitchen this week and tomorrow I’m going to help my daughter in her bedroom.

Then relabel the pockets. You might have one for "decorating/organzing" then label the pockets by room or some other system that makes sense to you. You can also store things in these files until you have the time to scan them.

Binders are my favorite. Barb's idea is like creating your own magazine where every article is something you love. How cool. Thanks for sharing. I love these! Binders are my favorite.

I've got SOOOO many, all in assorted bottles and jars. So I bought 100 jars - 3, 6, 9, and 12 oz - from www.specialtybottle.com, picked up a few tiered shelves from Fred Meyer, and printed gold-colored, French-looking labels from Microsoft's Office. Voila - my spices looked so good in a few cupboards that I organized my tea stashes. Now I've called a cabinet guru who is going to rout out the centre oak panel and put in glass - it's too pretty to hide! Thanks for inspiring us! Spices?
