    I love finding attractive, inexpensive ways of organizing my belongings, but I tend to hoard things I *might* need one day…you know, stuff I will never need or, if I do end up needing it, I will forget I have it and buy something new. I could use some help clearing out all that extra stuff.

    My Office needs to be organized and cleaned up. When ever we clean up the living room, dining room, kitchen or hallway everthing that looks like a piece of paper or doesn’t have a proper home ends up on my desk! So there are always piles there….

    I could really use to un-complicate our whole house. Small rooms and an overall lack of storage has led to a really complicated house. Thing and shoved and crammed and stuck everywhere. On the surface it look all nice and organized, but underneath it all it a way too complicated system that only I know…which is the biggest problem!
