August 30, 2025

PronounsShe/her
Describe ways in which clutter has interfered with your ability to carry out or enjoy creative projects and activities.Clutter has interfered with my mind and space. I want to create and yet I end up thinking about the things around me. I may start sketching or painting and begin to feel guilty that I should be doing something else (de-cluttering, organizing and cleaning). My space is limited and in the process of going through things the monster has taken over.
Describe ways in which the desire to declutter and organize your space has conflicted with or impaired your ability to carry out or enjoy creative projects and activities.It takes away time and energy where I could be creating and the space to work on projects.
Describe ways in which your efforts to declutter and organize your space have enhanced your ability to carry out or enjoy creative projects and activities.With de-cluttering I have found items that I have saved to work on a special project and have forgotten about. I have donated most of the forgotten supplies to a teacher where she can make use of said items instead of sitting in a box for my one day that never comes.
Describe the key features of your ideal creative workspace.My ideal creative workspace would be a studio where there is space to lay out projects to work on without tripping over things and a separate organized space to store everything away.
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.When creating do you have several or just one project at a time?
