    The area of my life that could use some uncomplicating is our bedroom and office- boy, they have been pushed aside with all the baby welcoming, and organizing since those are the spaces everything gets shoved in, especially with my couponing and holiday hosting. Thanks for the give a way

    I could use some help keeping kids’ stuff – both keepsakes and art “treasures” organized and neat. Perhaps a space/method to continually and easily add items and a way to keep them from putting us on the next “Hoarders” show!

    Love your page and would love to win this. My spot that needs help is my pantry. It is 5 ft. x. 15 in. x 72 in. We need to put doors on it and redo it. It needs help. I cook everything from scratch so I don’t use a lot of packaged foods, but I do use a lot of raw ingredients.
