What if all you had to do was answer a simple question in order to be in a drawing for a giveaway?? Hopefully you would do it, right? Well I sure hope so!!
The question- Most needed area for organization in your home. (Example- My laundry room is in desperate need of attention. Really, it is!)
The prize- “Wallpaper: Dreams of Color for the Home” by Alejandro Asensio. (Its a fabulous amazing read with tons and tons of eye candy.)
Please, everyone participate! The contest will end this Friday and I will announce the winner next Monday the 8th. The added bonus of this giveaway is to realize that EVERYONE has a disorganized space in there lives and if you say you don’t then I dare you to show us! hehe.
Also, I will be doing follow up posts highlighting ways and looks to help us be motivated to tidy up those spaces that seem to be winning:)
Answer on!!!!
I am in need of a filing system for my piles of papers.
I tear things out from magazines and need a file to reference. I have some on discs and am in need of an organized system to reference. I am an artist and work from my home office so a system would really improve my work life.
My closet could benefit too. I need to follow a rule of one new thing in, one old thing out!
the basement. hands down. it could be such a great addition to the house but it looks like a garage/dumpster/storage-locker
My bedroom! It’s really true what they say about people leaving it to last because it’s the least “on show” of any room.
uh. have you seen the one about my closet? disaster. i pull things out and shut it. quickly.
This is fun! Ok, my teeny apt only has two closets, so my clothing is jammed in with my vacuum, spare linens, books etc! It’s so bad that I often end up wearing the same few pieces since I can’t even locate others…(not ok!)
Oh so lovely – thanks for the giveaway opportunity! My sewing room is in desperate need, its just well…yikes!
I don’t mean to brag – but I am pretty organized. OK, I’ll admit it my garage – which could hold two cars comfortably – is a complete mess!! We have tried to organize time, and time again, but things just won’t stay put. Between 5 kids, my husbands things, and my endless projects — our garage runneth over.
Your read my mind – the laundry room!
Thank you for letting me know about this fabulous contest! I’m so excited
My most needed area for organization in my home at the moment…EVERYTHING! Seriously! We are in the process of moving to another state and we will be reorganizing and redecorating every inch of our house. Right now our apartment has boxes full of wedding presents in just about every room that we never got to open because we have no room to put them anywhere lol!
Our Master Bedroom is in need of some serious TLC and organizing. The other rooms in our home carries a bit of character(which is where I spend most of MY time) and I have recently organized them to a "T". My husband spends the majority of time in our bedroom and he loves to read. He has books galore and they need some serious organization because now they are sitting in a very cluttered style on black utility shelves(gross) and his poor desk(there is paper everywhere…everywhere I say!:) & he needs a new office chair. Let's just say that I have to really get to this room, because he deserves a special place to read and be the awesome Designer he is(he's a Graphic Designer)!
Thanks for this contest…I am going to get started tomorrow…I promise:)!
My laundry room! There is stuff everywhere- from tools to towels to clean laundry to spray paint to cereal boxes- eek! Talking about it gives me the heebie jeebies. I love reading everyone’s answers! This was fun.
I have a large closet/cupboard at the end of my hall. It holds towels, sheets, scrapbooking and sewing supplies. I clean it out at least once a month and a few days later it is a disaster again. So, I am doing something wrong in the way of organizing. I would like to get it right!
..just like teal chic, it’s my bedroom…I started my blog this past January and I have been procrastinating, dreaming and talking about re-doing it since then…Check out my blog and see how desperate it really is…and I’m a decorator…UGH! I’m just going through a really blue period…and I don’t mean the color…
By far, it’s the basement! With a dirt floor, a collection of tools and materials from five-years of rehab, and all the equipment my husband stores down there to brew beer, that is the room that needs the most attention!
want that book!!!!
my drawers where i keep receipts, bank statements , bills , and tons of used envelopes that i keep for recycling!!!!!!!!
can somebody come here and tidy up for me ?????
that book looks beautiful!
Okay, my huge walk-in closet is horrendous. I don’t have near enough storage!
That junk drawer that always materializes in the kitchen. After only two months in my new home last year, there was already a drawer that looked liked we had lived there for years – full of chinese menus, loose change, pencils, pens, coupons, bits of string, hair ties, elastics and who knows what else. I hate it but have to admit that I go into it often looking for something. There must be a better way!
I’m with Cindy- “things fall out of my closets and hit me in the head”! That describes it perfectly
Oh gosh, I have two! My home office AND my laundry room! But I am probably in more need of organizing my office first! I’m excited… Hope I win:)
My laundry room also – I desperately need to get some shelving in there and get all the junk off the tops of the washer and dryer. And find a better way to manage the recycling.
And then there is my home office, which lately looks like a paper tornado went through it. I keep waiting for the cats to take care of the filing….
that would be my closets. All of them. I live in a small apt so there are only four…but they’re all an unorganized mess! the rest of my place is so clean and orderly but when you open the closets you almost fear that something might jump out at you. its that bad!
Ugh, my OFFICE!
Even when I do get around to organizing it, I end up doing a half-ass job. I can never seem to complete it and on top of that, it’s the room that everything that doesn’t have a home yet gets thrown in.
Totally drooling over that book. My office/study is in the most desparate need of organization. Books and magazines are double parked and practically falling out of shelves. I even have 2 huge 6′x6′ shelves that can’t hold everything, boxes stacked up on top of the shelves, boxes and stuff all over and spilling out. It needs serious attention but I find myself so pooped after work that I can’t seem to get myself started on the gargantuan task.

um…my walk-in closet!!! argh.
i’m planning on going to the antique stores to buy myself a couple of nice chiffarobes…hopefully of the victorian kind
my living room is in desperate need of some help! with 6 of us girls living in the house its hard to keep it clean and organized! maybe if it looked cute everyone would start to pitch in and clean up their stuff!
Most certainly my closet/bedroom. I have that “/” because the closet door is always open with things spilling out…therefore it automatically menas the bedroom gets roped into this area as well!
We live in a tiny 2 bedroom, 1 bath 1926 bungalow and I could use all the closet organizational tips I can get!
Great giveaway and I’ve loved reading all the comments.
my closet needs help, big time!!! i’d love to win the fun book
what a great little idea this was!
LOVE IT! I want to win! There are a few different spots I could put this to use, for sure!
Okay, it has to be the garage….hands down. I have been making progress though this summer. I am now able to park 1 car in there. Hopefully, the second car is not far behind.
Well I finally tackled the closets, so I’m going to go with our Bathroom – it’s in DIRE need of some organization!
My garage…anything that I don’t know what to do with gets sent to “the garage”. It is so bad that my car doesn’t fit in any more!! Help!!
My sewing room, or space rather
. I just started sewing and am not even sure how to organize it yet.
The book looks beautiful. I have a degree in graphic design so I get excited about eye candy to use as inspiration
. Thank you for the give away!
ok so my upstairs closet is down right scary!! if you know me [Mrs. OCD], you would not believe what i have crammed in there! 2 5×5 shag rugs, medicine and 1st aide supplies, all my linens, bath towels, potty stool, baskets..enough said it’s sad, im embarassed by it..and it keeps my humble! ha.ha! ps:: oh yeah i’m meeting with a psych therapist to find out why this closet has stayed in this shape for a year!
My clothes closet is an utter nightmare. I can barely look in there right now it’s gotten so bad, piled with clothes that need to go to goodwill and ones that i need to re-evaluate. Ugh!
I have a room that used to be a garage then it was a room for laundry but anything we do not where put it or maybe we should let go but we do not want ends there, that room is a shame!!!
my bedroom….
need help!

Hei!
My boys is shering a bedroom, they are teenagers and have a lot of media equipment and other stuff,it is not easy to designe a room that inspire the yout culture, and all the need they have……
My kitchen is in desperate need of organizing! Currently putting EVERYTHING on my dining table…ughhh!
My kitchen desperately needs organization!
My little boys room is crazy! Toys, books, the computer, clothes- I mean stuff is just everywhere. I don’t even know if I want to call it his room anymore. It’s more like one big cluttered room. Need Help badly! Daisy~
Oh, definitely our bedroom. We are still hunting for the perfect bed!

I can’t seem to keep my pantry organized, despite “gutting” it a few months ago. Actually, I could come up with a lot more spaces than that! Pick me! I am thinking about wallpapering my powder room…
My office. Because I don’t have one. Unless you count the desk in the hallway. Please help!
So hard to choose just one room but I would have to say my kitchen. No matter how many times I clear the benches they are a dumping ground for all my kids bits and pieces. Its only ever tidy for about five minutes at a time. Tracey x
