Now that IKEA is here, I'm thinking I actually might be able to get into something like this. You know, not just think about it but actually do it. The cover of their premiere issue (out June 22 of this month) is so calming. Can you imagine a laundry room looking like that? Mine usually has 10 loads stacked on the table waiting, waiting and waiting some more for me to finally fold it. And then there is more waiting to be placed in the appropriate place. Bottom line, laundry is not my thing. However, maybe Organize magazine will inspire me! I think I may sign up. A year's subscription is only twenty bucks.
A few tidbits I learned already:
* 80% of the clutter in most homes is a result of disorganization, not lack of space.
* 50% of homeowners rate the garage as the most disorganized place in the house.
* 80% of what we file never gets looked at again
* 40% of housework can be eliminated by getting rid of clutter

wow, those are eye opener facts for sure.
ReplyDeleteYour laundry room is my only semblance of hope when I come over and see your place. "Those Brubakers aren't TOTALLY neat afterall. (Just 99.9%.)"
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I make you feel better. If you saw my basement right now (it looks like my laundry room) then you'd feel even better. That percentage will go way down!
