Your Best and Your Worst: Household Sweet Spots and Problem Areas

Online

Some spaces and categories of stuff in our homes are relatively easy to declutter and organize, but some are constant sources of struggle. What lessons can our “sweet spots” teach us for managing our trouble areas? In episode #209 of The Clutter Fairy Weekly, Gayle Goddard, professional organizer and owner of The Clutter Fairy in Houston, Texas, explores household problem areas and clear zones and offers strategies for working toward a whole house that’s a clutter-free sweet spot.

We prepared a survey to learn about our audience’s experiences related to this episode’s topic. To answer the survey, please see Survey #209: Household Sweet Spots and Problem Areas.

No Room Left Behind: Organize to Reclaim Space (Meetup)

A Healing Collective 4231 Bellaire Boulevard, Suite T, Houston, TX, United States

The Clutter Fairy talks a lot about the clutter traps we find in certain rooms and spaces. But for the May 2017 Houston Clutter Coaching Meetup, we’re going to focus on the sneaky ways in which clutter erodes our free space and creates trouble spots throughout the home. We’ll look at a few of the root causes of clutter habits that compromise our comfort and peace of mind.

Focus on Your Stories (Meetup)

Nature Discovery Center 7112 Newcastle St., Bellaire, TX, United States

For the March 2015 meeting of the Houston Clutter Coaching Meetup Group, we’ll focus the conversation on your answers to these questions: What’s your biggest problem area in the struggle against clutter? (Your answer can refer to a physical space, a category of stuff, or an aspect of your life—whatever answers the question best for you.) What would you have, be, or do differently if you didn’t have a clutter problem? When you’re overwhelmed by clutter, what’s one trick that helps you get started?

Your Personal Space of Shame: Organizing the Final Frontier (Meetup)

Nature Discovery Center 7112 Newcastle St., Bellaire, TX, United States

Most of us have a place that becomes our last refuge for clutter. You know the space we’re talking about—the closet where things go in but never come out, the unusable spare room, the junk drawer you can’t close (or dare not open), the impenetrable garage. At our August meetup, we’ll discuss these trouble spots and offer tips for reclaiming your “personal space of shame” as a usable part of your home.
