November 22, 2025

PronounsShe/her
Describe a situation in which someone successfully assisted you with a decluttering or organizing project. What factors contributed to the success of the collaboration?I recently cleared out a garden shed( stuff moved from hse !) and l got help from my friend who does the garden.He knew what the tools were, unlike me and whether they were worth keeping.There were items l was unsure of and he suggested getting rid of them as we had the skip.I dont miss any of it and am grateful that its another job done.
Describe a situation in which you successfully assisted someone else with a decluttering or organizing project. What factors contributed to the success of your efforts?I have often helped my Mum to sort and clean rooms in her house She has the chance to talk about her items , where she got them , whether they are significant etc and it helped make it clearer what stuff could go.The trick is not to rush the process and some things went after time .She hasnt missed any of items that were donated.
Describe a situation in which you offered help with decluttering or organizing, but you didn’t achieve the desired results. What factors contributed to coming up short of success?I am dying to help my friend declutter her house after she confessed she cant get into one room in her house as its so full of stuff.She just isnt ready yet so l just re assure her lm here when she is ready.
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.What boundaries do you put on your stuff ( Gayle bead queen , Ed book and art lover !!) Do you prefer to deckutter alone or are you open to "advice / suggestions" from others ?????? LOL...
