I need this book in the worst way! The combination of retiring, moving, unpacking, and reorganizing have overwhelmed me. Too many bags have already been donated.

Blissful Babe, I find many baskets and containers at the dollar store and recycling depot. Also cardboard boxes cut down such as kleenex boxes, tea boxes, cereal boxes, etc. work well in drawers and closets.

Also don’t forget to check out your local dollar store.

Hope that helps :)

*I* NEED this book. I am the product of two pack rats. Some days I think there is just no hope for me! LOL.

I am getting better, but still need to do a lot of work to change my pack rat status.

Having tubs and baskets to organize with would DEFINITELY help, alas, I am not in a financial position to purchase such things.

I’m a work in progress!

I need this book! I am the queen of “piles,” and I’m driving (or shall I say, have driven) my husband crazy. I have this sneaky habit of moving piles from one room to the other and calling it a day. Anyway, lately I have tackled two areas: My dining room and my son’s dresser drawers. I did a major de-clutter of the dining room and gave way well over 100 things that I was not using. I also created two hand-me-down bags of my son’s clothes. I hope I win the book, because I really need it (oooh, will I simply add it to my pile of books by my bed or will I actually read it??!!)

OMG – I am salivating at the thought of winning this book. I am trying to declutter my life but having a hard time doing it. If I don’t win it, I will go out and buy it, but winning it would be so much sweeter…

I recently posted some before and afters of my bedroom closets and bathroom cupboard clean sweeps. Am I allowed to join in and link up even though it was from a few weeks back?

I’ve thrown away a TON of stuff in the last year. well, gave it away, I should say. Donated, passed to others. I tried to throw very little of it out.

After a year of doing this very consistently, things are looking really good around the house now! :-) I highly recommend it!! just a little each day, over weeks, months or a year! Makes the house much easier to keep clean and organized.

We’ve been trying to de-junk as well. I saw this book at the library and told myself I’d get it later…perhaps if I won it…
