Survey #256—Full Response from Sandra
| Pronouns | She/her |
|---|---|
| Have you previously experienced a renovation, remodel, or major DIY project in your home? | Yes |
| Briefly describe the project you completed. | Recently we had a new staircase installed and new wood flooring in the main living area. Finally getting rid of the ugly carpets!!! |
| Did you declutter as part of your preparations for the project? Describe how clutter complicated or adversely affected the project, if that was part of your experience. | I was pleased to realize that clearing the space due for renovations was easier because we had free space throughout the house where we could temporarily relocate books, furniture, etc. |
| Are you making plans for a renovation, remodel, or major DIY project in your home? | No |
| 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. | Tips for how to prevent rest of household from filling up free or at least pleasantly decluttered space. I still have empty "decoy" boxes so shelving appears already full. The new problem is, for instance, the pantry that had more breathing room (we could see what we have) that is filling up quickly again (items pushed to the back or stacked on many rows, etc.). You've said it before but any free space seems to be screaming to receive more stuff instead of being considered a great convenience and breathing, living space. |
