Generally the two main areas of the home that need organizing are the; study (or study area) and the music and DVD areas. In these areas, particularly the study there is a lot of life admin – paper-based clutter that always seems to accumulate first just inside the front door after the post has been and then in the study where it is waiting to be filed. Similarly, with the DVD areas, there is a great deal of coming and going when you swap and change the choice of CD. We shall focus on this area to help you make your space a more organized one.
