Recycled Can Supply Organizer
If you have some clean cans and some strong bulldog clips, you can have a catch all to keep handy. Just put the clip everywhere the tins meet, and fill evenly with things like I did. I put in office, tool, and craft supplies.

Use It or Lose It
By Kelly Ann Butterbaugh
I'm sitting on a jackpot, and I didn't realize it until a rainy week inspired me to clean my office closet. Over the course of this year I had easily purchased fifteen boxes of thank you cards for $3 a piece.

Keeping Clutter Off My Kitchen Counters
An old wicker shelf, a large cup-hook and some plastic bins help to organize all the miscellaneous "stuff" that winds up in the kitchen. Then distribute items once a day to their "proper" homes!

Make an Extension Cord Keeper
The supplies you will need to make an extension cord keeper are: a small plastic pail, a 2 inch paint roller handle, and an extension cord. Measure on bucket high enough for the handle to turn without scraping the floor.

Time for a Major Declutter
I have been having a major declutter at my house. Nothing has been spared. I figured if I hadn't looked at some of the stuff I was considering hanging onto, I didn't really need it. I went through one room thoroughly every day, sparing nothing!

Organizing Ideas from Magazines in a Filing Cabinet
Since I have children, I often get magazines that have lots of ideas ranging from craft ideas to party and food ideas. I had accumulated so many because I wanted to keep the useful ideas that I came across. I was becoming overwhelmed with magazines.

Clean Out Clutter
Americans spend BILLIONS of dollars a year on storage containers! Recent data indicated that we spent $1.4 BILLION on FOOD storage containers in 2003 alone! I am a pack rat by nature and I save everything:

Craft: Clothes Pin Paper Organizer
Personalized Organizer from a recycled ruler, magnets, clothes pins and foam shapes. We used hot glue to place the clothespins and magnets onto the ruler. We wrote my children's names on each clothespin and decorated with some liquid beads for the center of the flowers.

Decluttering Tips
I am going to be single if I do not attend to clutter that I've accumulated! But to me, it's a mess not a throw-away kind of clutter. Can you give me ideas, like where to start? I have accumulated many 5 gallon buckets for tool carriers and this season's container garden.

Recycling Wipe Pouches for Storage
I use these wonderful wipes, then use the container for something else around the house. For flat things, they are great. I have Zipties, rubber bands, office supplies for the car, and just about anything you want to keep handy yet dry.
