| What is your clutter keeping you from having, from being, or from doing? Describe how your life would be different if all of your clutter disappeared overnight. What new—or familiar—activities, experiences, or things would you invite into your space? | When my clutter is stashed away, I feel great peace and relaxation in my room. It is also great to be able to not have to step over things when I walk around my room. If my clutter disappeared overnight, it would reduce how often I have to clutter up my tidy room because I can't find something amongst the junk. |
| Describe an item in your home that you feel as if you couldn’t live without. What meaning or significance does this item hold for you? What feelings does it evoke? Do you love it? Need it? Use it regularly? Feel a sense of obligation about it? (And so on.) | I am an adult, and I have a large collection of plush animals, several of which are quite big. I consider them my friends and use them all the time. My dad is into them too, and we play with them and have them make conversation. I plan to declutter enough that I can easily store all of them. They are my most valued possession. |
| If you had to leave your home suddenly with no certainty of ever being able to return, what’s the one thing that you would take with you, and why? For purposes of this question, assume or pretend that you don’t have an emergency evacuation bag or kit prepared, and you only have time to grab one treasured item on your way out the door. | What a painful question! 🙁 I would bring my plush dog. I have a rare physical disability that presents itself clearly, and that dog happens to look like he has the same condition as me. I pretend he does. I even bring him to my treatment appointments (I leave him in my vehicle when I go in). |
| 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. | Is it ok to throw away everything if I cannot easily get to a donation center? |
| Future topics | Please do another video explaining all the pitfalls of a garage sale. You dedicated a whole episode to it years ago, but I'm guessing not all newcomers go back and listen to your archives. |
