| Pronouns | He/him |
|---|---|
| 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.) |
|
| If you selected “Other” above, please elaborate: | I've used MANY people from the "larger" community (primarily church and neighbors) for fix it or repair or building projects, but not decluttering. |
| Where do you shop for organizing products? (Check all that apply.) |
|
| If you selected “Other” above, please elaborate: | Big Lots is the only place to shop for totes! |
| 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'm sure I'll run across a dozen or so in the next year, but can't think of any right now. I can tell you this, I'm certain we're filling up more space with empty containers and boxes and drawers and mis-used cupboards than the stuff around them! 🙁 |
| For which collections or categories of stuff do you find it difficult to obtain or employ organizing and storage solutions, and why? | Too embarrassed to let anyone in, so honestly don't know. |
| 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 wife is the QUEEN of this!! EVERYTHING is repurposed into a storage container! I actually found that small paper cups work very well in my office drawers! Wire mesh silverware trays are FANTASTIC in "junk drawer" and officer drawers and bathroom drawers (Note, the ones with solid bottoms are too hard to keep clean!). We had some very simple wire shelves we thought we would use in the pantry, but ended up not working. After they sat around for a while, we put a reverse osmosis filter in under our kitchen sink ... and ended up using them to put the water tank on! Doubled the usefulness of that cabinet. The plastic shoe box size containers are not expensive and work for MANY things. Ohhhh ... my favorite: 4-drawer lateral filing cabinet that my work was getting rid of has turned out to the be best tool chest garage storage unit ever!! |
| 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. | Do Gayle's clients tend to maintain the organization after she leaves??? |
