Skye says
I would LOVE to have a lesson closet organization! 😀
Dale says
I am in desperate need of help in organization, but really need help in the walk-in closet that I share with my husband. This is the first time I have had to share with him, and it is a mess. I could send you pictures that would make you tremble and quake, but I would LOVE to follow up with pictures that make you smile. Just how to get there, is my dilemma. I look at it every day, and think about where to start? I can find no starting point. Please pick me as one of your winners! I promise to take it seriously and can also offer comic relief!
Jennie says
This giveaway was made for me! Our bedroom closet is out of control and spilling over onto the floor. With our first baby on the way in November, I’m itching to get this stressful problem fixed!

Debbie says
We recently moved and I love my master bedroom closet – it’s huge! But it doubles as craft storage, linen storage, bookshelves full of books storage and of course, clothes & shoe storage! The closet has really tall ceilings (we live in a 1 story) so I’ve tried to utilize at much space as possible but it still looks messy & unorganized – help!
Tiffany says
I love it here, you have helped me org. everything. I love it
Valerie says

Rochelle says
Every closet in our house needs to be overhauled: our closet, our 3 kids’ closet, toy/movie/book closet, shoe/whatever closet, storage closet, and linen closet. Plus, they are sliding door closets, most of the closets out there are regular doors and/or walk-ins. We’re not that cool!
Connie Buckley says
This sounds like a fantastic, and much needed class!

This makes my heart beat faster just thinking of it. I’m okay with my part of our closet. Hubby’s drives me nuts though. Our two little boys share a room and thus a closet. I’m completely lost on how to organize theirs!
Amy Walker says
Sounds like a workshop I need to take!

Hmm…do you have a giveaway or plan for those of us who have organized closets and drawers and cabinets, but we have unorganized dining room tables and desks? Somehow, I think you might tell me that my closets aren’t as organized as I thought if I can’t find a spot for all the other stuff;-)

While my closet isn’t so bad — it’s half empty now, actually, since my partner left suddenly last week with all his things — I have a friend who could use major help.
Anna says
My closet is in need of a major re-organization! Okay, several closets need help. The bedroom is functional, but I don’t have to share it. However, the linen closet is a disaster! It doubles as a bathroom cabinet (since the bathroom has no storage) and I have trouble keeping everything together and looking neat.
Natalie says
We have a long closet in our master that needs help! This would be great!

ter@waaoms says
I would LOVE an organized closet. About a year ago I bought these organizers that are supposed to hang on existing rod but they do not fit. I’ve yet to try and find a solution to that. It was really annoying too because I took out all the clothes. But it forced me to purge ton of clothes though! 🙂 But it could still use some organization to create even more storage space. 🙂

Zuma Ellis-Knight says
I so need to win this. My husband and I share a nice sized closet but it is fitted poorly. He is willing to refit the rods and add shelves (there are none!) if we just know what to do. I have no place for shoes and boots(we have lots of boots) and I can’t reach the top rods. I care for my 94 year old parent so don’t have a lot of energy left to try to figure out what to do with the closets. Please help! I am stressed to the max!

My husband and I just moved to our apartment after: 8 months of living with my in-laws, 6 months of living apart (he was in Boston, I was in Phoenix) and 6 months of living apart (we went through a separation). Now, we are starting our new life together, part II. We have been married for 5 years but this move feels like if we were newly weds. We are in love, happy and excited about the future. Because of all of that, I want my new home to be as organized as possible so good vibes can flow around with no clutter in between. I would love to have a workshop in how to organize our closets!
