The latest in Storey's best-selling ''One Minute
Organizer'' series, ''The One Minute Organiser A to Z
Storage Solutions'' offers practical advice based on the
time-tested principle that everything - absolutely
everything - has its place.From airline tickets to
X-rays, Smallin suggests handy ways of organizing common
household items neatly, and in a way that makes the
items easy to find. Her idea of 'storage' goes far
beyond baskets and plastic bins; with her help, readers
will not only be able to keep their household items from
piling up on the kitchen counter, they will also be able
to find everything they need in a matter of seconds.
Smallin tackles some of the most vexing clutter -
children's artwork, receipts, holiday decorations, and
mismatched socks.Her tips are at once creative and
commonsense - like storing earrings in ice cube trays,
one set per cube, or investing in furniture that can
double as storage units. Items are presented
alphabetically for easy reference and browsing, and the
book's colorful, quick-read format makes it both
practical and fun.To help readers who are new to a
clutter-free lifestyle, Smallin also includes some basic
time tested organizing principles - like discarding old
items as you acquire new ones, and donating items that
haven't been used in more than a year. Every page brings
even the most clutter challenged reader closer to a more
ordered life. With the help of this concise, no-nonsense
reference, readers will enjoy more time and less mess.
Best of all, they'll also be able to find that take-out
menu, spare tube of toothpaste, and ever-elusive
matching sock, every time. |
