Clutter and disorganization can make even the nicest home difficult to live in. For readers who find it impossible clean up, Mervyn Kaufmann comes to the rescue with this useful guide. Beginning in the entryway, the book takes readers through the public spaces of a home, showing how to identify problem spots and fix them. Tips show how heavy-traffic areas like the foyer, mud room, and living room can become welcoming, as well as functional. Also covered are the den, media room, breakfast room, and other family-oriented spaces that seem to invite disorder. Workhorse areas like the kitchen, pantry, and laundry room, as well as bedrooms and bathrooms, get a surprisingly fast makeover from messy to manageable. Containing a wealth of organizing and storage ideas, expert advice from professionals, before and after projects, and simple how-tos Organize It! is a practical guide to conquering clutter and creating an orderly, happy home.

Great book for spring cleaning!!!,
By Margot Reed (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Organize It!: How to Declutter Every Nook and Cranny in and Outside Your Home (Paperback)
I never knew where to start when facing the task of organizing my house after the winter. Clearing the clutter, switching winter/summer clothes, dreadful....! Not only did I find in this book solutions to clean and store, but I also discovered many useful tips to keep my house organized. I bought the book 2 months ago, and so far so good!!!

This review is from: Organize It!: How to Declutter Every Nook and Cranny in and Outside Your Home (Paperback)
It's a pretty book -- with great design ideas, and the index in the back is good for possible organization solutions, but this book focuses more on major renovation-type organization a lot (ie. cabinets/custom units etc.) and less about a true breakdown of how long to keep stuff, important stuff to keep, vs. stuff to toss, etc. Good general guide...

This review is from: Organize It!: How to Declutter Every Nook and Cranny in and Outside Your Home (Paperback)
This is a very generic organization book. If you are absolutely desperate or an extreme novice, it's not bad, but there are plenty of other great organization books. One great alternative for any level of chaos is Eliminate Chaos: The 10-Step Process to Organize Your Home and Life.
