This is the organizing book to buy!,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Knack Organizing Your Home: Decluttering Solutions and Storage Ideas (Knack: Make It easy) (Paperback)
I bought this book after starting to try and organize my home and discovering that among other things I had enough bandages (stored all over the house) to supply a small clinic. Clearly I needed help. This book is so great that I have been giving it as a gift (because I don't want to loan it to anyone)
Each subject has two well illustrated pages with readable text above the photos and one line "bullets' beneath the photos. Additionally, there are special boxes on many pages with important information. The photographs are great and it is easy to quickly see the type of equipment you might need to buy. I wish that I had had this book when I had children at home and could never find anything. I found tips on organizing areas that I never knew could be organized.

Experience with Real People,
By Emily S. (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Knack Organizing Your Home: Decluttering Solutions and Storage Ideas (Knack: Make It easy) (Paperback)
Last year, I employed the author to help me organize my small one-bedroom apartment. In only a few hours, Emily quickly identified several areas where prime real estate wasn't being taken advantage of, and coached me to clear unnecessary clutter (cardboard boxes!). She also provided helpful tips for affordable organizing tools like shelf expanders, and encouraged me to make simple changes like getting matching hangers so it would be a pleasure to hang up my clothes. What I really appreciated was that she worked with the realities of my life, didn't try to change my lifestyle, and focused on high-impact changes. This book is based on real experience with people who want easy access to often-used items and can't spend all their time organizing and cleaning.

Practical and elegant solutions,
This review is from: Knack Organizing Your Home: Decluttering Solutions and Storage Ideas (Knack: Make It easy) (Paperback)
The field of books about home organizing is crowded, and it's not easy to figure out which books are really worth our attention. Emily Wilska's book, in the new Knack series, stands out as comprehensive, beautifully written, and entertaining. She offers tons of decluttering and storage solutions. I dare anyone to read this book and not find practical and elegant ideas in every chapter.
