Welcome to Jamie's Weekly Clutter Challenge

Jamie's Book



Many of you have emailed me to say you have the 1,000 Time Saving Strategies Book and do I have another title in the same series.

The answer is yes, 1,000 Best Organizing Secrets is the first in the series. You can see it here

Make Shelf Space

Are you out of shelf space? I am! I just went to put away a book and there was no place to put it. So I placed it on top of the other books on the shelf with the idea that I'll get back to it later.

But I know that's not true, I don't really have any intention of going back to shelve the book at a later time. It was just an easy fix for now.

That is until I have another book to put away, there is no more room to wedge books so it will have to sit on top of or next to the bookcase. Which means a pike will start to form.

So right after I finish writing this I'm going to the shelf to make some space.

What shelf do you have that is in need of space? A linen closet shelf, a kitchen shelf, a bedroom shelf, a bathroom shelf or a book shelf like me?

Take ten minutes today and clear a little room. No need for a major overhaul, just take a few minutes and make a little space. Move a few things around, toss something, recycle something, give away something or put something in another place to make space- you'll be glad you did!

When we have space we can breathe easier. We need open space, especially because we're going to get more stuff and we'll need a place to put it!

That's it for this week's challenge, until next Monday have a clutter-free week. -Jamie
