PronounsShe/her
Which of the following statements describe the help you’ve received in managing your organizing projects? (Check all that apply or have applied in the past.)
  • I have enlisted friends to help with decluttering and/or organizing.
  • I have used paid or government-funded organizing help from someone other than a professional organizer.
Where do you shop for organizing products? (Check all that apply.)
  • Office supply store (Staples, OfficeMax, etc.)
  • Online store (Amazon, Overstock, Wayfair, etc.)
  • Other
If you selected “Other” above, please elaborate:Dollar Tree (plastic shoe boxes for pantry and refrigerator shelves). Facebook Marketplace (2 drawer lateral wood file cabinet for towels and linens). Pizza boxes for scrapbooking projects. Bankers boxes for sorted photos into 1" file pockets... temporarily labeled with post-it notes or in pencil.
Describe an organizing product, resource, book, video, or other solution that you bought but never used—at least not for the purpose for which you purchased it.I don't buy the product until I determine the use/need for it (per the Clutter Fairy)!
For which collections or categories of stuff do you find it difficult to obtain or employ organizing and storage solutions, and why?After 10 years of retirement (and working the Clutter Fairy ideas) I have good solutions to use.
What’s your personal favorite inexpensive or free organizing solution? We’d love to hear about furniture, shipping boxes, food containers, craft supplies, or other unlikely items that you’ve ingeniously repurposed to hold your stuff.My favorite is Dollar Tree (or other cheap source) for plastic shoe boxes... CONTAINERIZE ! Also Bankers boxes.
Here’s your chance to ask Gayle and Ed any question you’re curious about. It need not be related to this survey’s topic(s). If we think that your question—and our answer—might be useful or instructive to The Clutter Fairy Weekly audience, we’ll share them in an upcoming episode.I love the new format with more than one topic.... also like single topic discussions. Budget organizing should be a good one!
