Easy Home Organizer: 15-Minute Step-By-Step Solutions

By Vicki Payne

Book Overview

Are things at home out of hand? Is the thought of putting things in order just... overwhelming ? With these simple, quickly implemented solutions, life can become less stressful--and the messy habits of a lifetime will disappear along with the chaos. The focus is on the little things that make a big difference--like not having to search for the car keys at the last minute--and the book is as organized as the house will be when you're through: it begins with advice on assessing the accumulated junk and eliminating the excess, and moves on to shopping for containers, applying clutter strategies, labeling jars and boxes, and creating a proper place for everything, room by room. The ideas are smart and attractive!

Easy Home Organizer

This book has some good ideas for organizing. I did find it useful in setting up my craft space.

GREAT..But a Few More Pictures Would Have Been Helpful!!

I received this book today and sat down and read it cover to cover! It was very easy reading and helpful in many areas. My only suggestion would be additional pictures in some of those areas that most of us struggle with. For example, on page 57, the author makes suggestions for storing lids for pots and pans, as well as plastic storage containers. The idea "might" be good, but a picture would have been very helpful for this unusual suggestion. Instead, there are 3 pictures extolling the virtues of installing sliding shelves to store pots and pans (without lids!) Another place pictures would have been helpful is on page 72. The author suggests installing an extension rod or pot rack a few inches from the closet ceiling to hang purses. It is unclear how this would work - a picture would have been worth a 1000 words! Other than a few more pictures that would have been helpful, this book is GREAT! I would recommend it for anyone looking for additional and creative ways to control the everyday clutter!
