Another view, with mirror "window" on left, and reflections bringing in light. Good angle to see the too-long patio window that hangs over from the file cabinets on right.
In-process paper and files easily stash under the patio glass overhang. I was too cheap to have a glass piece cut to fit the file cabinets, but I found a tempered glass window that fit -- sort of. (Thanks, Freecycle.org.) Hence the overhang, which has been a serendipitous blessing. I shove papers underneath when I leave the office, and the desk always looks tidy. The computer mouse and keyboard sit on a glass shelf under the desk surface - when I push the shef in, they 'disappear' visually.

A Hot Spot is an area, when left unattended will grow and take over the whole room as well as making the house look awful.
Yes, I know that. My craft room is a perfect example of that tragedy and the room is actually a one huge Hot Spot. Another one is the dinner table in our living room. I just happened to clean that up last Sunday and it's been pretty ok since that, so I bravely entered the craft room. We've had more Hot Spots when we didn't have a toddler. Everything's out of his reach now, so dinner table it is!
FlyLady says: "Now I want you to set your timer for 2 minutes and let's practice putting out your Hot Spot. You don’t have to work till you have finished; just do what you can in 2 minutes."
This is my desk in my craft room. The room has been in a horrible state for ages. The whole desk is full of stuff, but I had to choose one corner because of the limited time. It still took me 8 minutes instead of two. I couldn't stop, but fixed two corners instead of one.
Conclusion: I really need a small paper shredder. I've been talking about that for years. I don't feel comfortable to put my bills and other personal papers to the recycle bin outside the house. I tear the papers to pieces, but that takes time and I'm still not happy with the result, so these papers just keep lying around. What I also need is a proper trash bin in the carft room. I only have a plastic bag and it's not nice or handy in any way.
Look, I found candy! They will take care of themselves quickly, I promise!
"Do you have areas like this that continue to grow if left alone? Does the rest of the family see this as a place to put things when they do not want to put them where they belong? It is our job to nip this in the bud. Get rid of that pile, find the surface underneath, and stop the Hot Spot from becoming a raging Clutter inferno!"

This baseball cap is from a winery I LOVE. I have owned it for 4 years and worn it exactly 0 times. I've been saving it for the day I'll wear it but, let's face it, that day isn't coming. Off to Goodwill it goes!
This photo is a blast from my High school Past. Wow I had hair back then! 150Lbs Then maybe less.
This was from the Moore High School AFROTC Dining out. I found this photo cleaning out some old boxes while trying to declutter my life.
My towels and washclothes. I left the basket of vitamins and the tuperware of our less used jewery in there. Then I got rid of all towels that didn't match, that had big holes or stains, and that just generally didn't work. I left only 6 towels in great condition (one needed a small repair to a hem) and that all matched. I left all the white washclothes (we use about 4 a day), and three hand towels (which are mostly for show in the bathroom).

One wonders How I get any work done here at all .. well, I haven't ! Last two months I have not made ANYTHING ! I have just contemplated designing and organizing this room ;}
With a move to a new building looming in work we've been encouraging people to declutter and shift as much crap as they can from out of their cupboards.
This has yielded some unexpected gems, particularly in the discovery of very old technology.
One such item was this beauty which looks barely used. It's a Sony Mavica FD series digital camera. Guess what the FD stands for? Yes, as well as using those new fangled Sony memory sticks it also accepted 3.5 inch HD floppies into its built in floppy disk drive.
Maybe this tech passed me by, but until I saw this I had no idea such beasts existed...

I am pretty sure I look even dumpier than normal in these jeans but they are comfortable. What's a girl to do?
Very messy before shot of my home office I let it go way to long before cleaning, including typical paper clutter, as well as toys on the floor as well as other junk that didn't belong in the office in the first place.

And this is where it gets hard. I know Goodwill isn't going to do anything with these, and the only place to put them is in the trash. But it is really hard to throw things like this away, even though they've been collecting dust for years.
While trying to declutter my apartment this summer, I discovered a bunch of videotapes stored in some drawers in my living room. Wow, I've watched a lot of TV over the years, but going through these so far has only confirmed for me that I have pretty good taste and still love everything now that I loved back then.
I got "Fields of Gold" in my head for this illustration after a weekend full of watching and listening to my immense stash of Sting performances. Tyrone blends into this warm scenery perfectly, but he will neither confirm nor deny whether it's really Sting's backyard.
Here's the song if you need a reminder or, like me, you don't mind hearing it one more time: youtu.be/PeKE2Z-9HVM.

My advice for organizing cheaply: Don't buy any more storage! If I feel the need to buy a new storage box, instead I declutter a box I already have. I like using shoe boxes and gift boxes for storage because I can change them or get rid of them without wasting any money. I reorganized this entire closet without spending a dime.
