Laura is an author and blogger of “I’m an organizing junkie” who is passionate about sharing her organizing tips and tricks. She is the reason I became so interested in organizing my own home.

Today Laura is offering her book to three lucky readers.

I am a follower of your blog from Japan! We just moved here almost 2 months ago, and I’m having to redo the way I organize the house. I’m in a Japanese home that is not set up the same way as an American home, so it’s been a lot of work getting settled. I am not yet very organized. I also shared about your blog on my blog. I love reading your stuff. I have made a home management binder that I use everyday and love it!
I follow ABFOL 🙂
The area that needs the most help in our house would be our bedroom, it’s the catch-all of the house.
Hi,
I have been a follower of your blog for some time now and have drawn so much inspiration from your projects! Thank you for helping me get organized! 🙂

I pride myself on having an organized home, but for some reason I can not get a handle on my daughters bedroom! They are 7 and 4 and cant seem to keep it tidy. I need some creative ideas to manage their tiny little space!

The area that needs the most help is my books/office supplies space. My DH and I have the hardest time letting go of books and seem to accumulate way too much office supplies (that were a steal at the time).

The area that needs the most help is my bedroom. It is where everything ends up.
I am a follower of ABFOL, and the area I need the most help would be the living room and our room. These are the two places that everything seems to end up. Although at the moment I forgive myself. I only just gave birth a week ago. So I can let it go a little bit more. >.<
I’m a follower! 🙂
Kids toys and paper clutter…. ugh.
I follow your blog!
Pretty much my whole house needs to be organized, but mainly our bedroom and the living room.
I’ve been reading your blog for a few weeks now and just started following it. I’m another reader from out in Japan and our tiny apartment definitely needs some organizational help! Probably the worst area is the dining room/office area.
I shared on facebook, tweeted and posted on my blog http://carriscraftingcorner.blogspot.com/2011/09/bowl-full-of-lemons-giveaway-time.html

The play room!! Help!
I am a follower of your blog. The area that most needs to be organized in my home would be my office.

I shared the contest via facebook.
My entire house needs to be decluttered – we are a family of 7 attempting to live – and run a licensed daycare – in a two bedroom duplex. (And we won’t even discuss the garage.)
Hi I love to follow your blog from Australia, My room that needs help, attention and a makeover is the sewing/computer room it dives me crazy !!!

the area that needs the most organizing is my girls room. 2 small girls in one small space; there’s stuff everywhere.
I’m already a follower!
Also, my storage closet could use some serious help. It’s where we store all of our empty cardboard boxes, luggage, fans, gym clothes etc. etc. Too cramped!
I am a follower of your blog. It is great.
I need help organizing and keeping up with paper clutter and toys.

I need to organize all the closets in my house. Every room has a decent sized closet but the space isn’t being used properly which results in closets full of piles and junk
I’ve been eyeballing this book. I am a follower of ABFOL.
I think my biggest organizational problem is my office/craft/homeschool room. There are too many things going on there at the same time and it always looks cluttered.
Well now, that is a tough question….. I want to redo my closets, but they really aren’t cluttered. My office needs a filing redo, but that really isn’t cluttered. My 5 year old sewing room………arghhhhh! That IS cluttered and needs a total rehab!

I need help with my closets! It’s so easy to just shut the doors and forget about everything that is packed away in there!
I am a blog follower! My master bedroom and garage need decluttered terribly! It’s so overwhelming though.
My office and guest bedroom both need a lot of organizing
I’m a follower : )
I need to get some order in our garage/entryway. Shoes are everywhere and something needs to be done to make a smoother transition of getting out of the house in the morning.

Oh boy! There are lots of places in my house that need help. My office and craft room are the biggest problems right now though.
My garage needs the most attention right now. We moved in 2 months ago and it’s been our dumpting ground.
I am a follower
What area needs organizing? Can I saw the entire house? Is that allowed? The one that needs it the most is probably the entire collection of toys — since they go over 3 rooms, I can’t really pick a room.
I just became a follower last week. I am crazy about organizing and I love your blog.
The area that needs organizing the most is my craft area. I can’t seem to figure out how to store some of my things

I am already a follower of your blog…and I have recently checked out Laura’s blog, thanks to Pinterest. My whole house needs to be organized!!! I’ve been working very hard at trying to get organized, and would love to have this book for more tips on how to make it happen!!
We just moved into our house a few months ago. It’s considerably bigger than what we are used to and now that we own our own home we have picked up lots of misc items and I just can’t seem to get everything organized. It’s clean but not organized and the hubby doesn’t get that! haha I need to find a way to get things organized in a simplified manner so that he can keep it that way too!

I have to organize my closets and my sewing room. The rest of the house I’ve gotten more under control, even the girls rooms, and they want to keep absolutely everything! Even trash!
Well, my 14 month old gets into everything but I’m trying to organize one space at a time. I would love to redo my bedroom.

My office needs some major organization! I have a scrapbooking desk, along with my sewing machine in there, and it is the room that we store, well basically everything in!
After decades of being disorganized, I am happy to declare myself a fairly organized person, but still have “problem areas” that need work. The first to come to mind is p.a.p.e.r! Having switched to a wireless laptop, I got rid of my clutter-catching desk — but now find paper piles land on my kitchen table! I really need a “process” of handling all types of paper.
BIG fan of orgjunkie.com!

I have one room in the house that is the “Catch All Room” If the item doesn’t have a home and I don’t want to find it one while cleaning the house, that’s where it goes. The room looks like something off the Horders TV show. I would love a copy of this book. I’m a new follower and found out about your site from Laura’s FB post.
I need help with my pantry!!
I am a follower of ABFOL and the area of my home that needs the most organization is my kitchen. We don’t have a lot of space so things get overly cluttered easily. I’m sharing this with my friends on FB as well! Thank you!!!
my garage!
Happy Wednesday! The room in our house that needs an intervention would def be our bonus room/playroom. We moved into a new house at the end of July and things are a MESS with the kids’ toys and books! We would love lots of neat ideas for kid-friendly storage!
Hi, I am a follower of ABFOL
As a mother of 6 kids and counting I need help in EVERY area, lol!!! Seriously though, there are a few that are beyond what I can do alone. Those areas are digital media (documents and photographs), hard copy docs (finanical, legal, medical, && kids stuff), and storage things (craft stuff, holiday itmes, && organizing saved clothing)… I could continue the list but those are the areas that are in extreme choas for the mere quanity of things I have per category!!! *sigh*
Thank you for the opportunity to “WIN” a book!!!

I am a follower of ABFOL! I would love this book because my whole life needs de-cluttered right now! We moved into our FIRST home 4 months ago, found out we are expecting our FIRST baby, are running 2 businesses (pest control and photography) out of our home and just last week my husband’s best friend moved in with us for a couple months to save money. We live in a 3 bedroom home. Every room needs de-cluttered and re-purposed it seems! Thanks!
I “liked” and posted about the giveaway on Facebook!
Too many areas need organization ..my bedroom is a catchall..sharing on fb
I will share the winner via random.org on my blog at the end of the weekend.
Great giveaway! (and much needed in my house with 4 kiddos 😉 I am a loyal follower of ABFOL. There are so many spaces in my home that need to be organized but I will have to go with our basement/kids area. I have been wanting to create a homework station down there for a long time. I bet this book will give me just the inspiration and ideas that I need.
Thank you for the opportunity.

I’m not sure what needs more help, my craft/office area or my closet/storage mess. I guess my craft/office area is more visable so that should get them makeover first.
Love this giveaway – I’ve been wanting this book for a while 🙂 Also sharing on fb. My sewing room needs the most attention, but so does our toy room – it’s so cluttered up. Thanks!
I am a new follower, and the part of my home that needs the most organizing is the new nursery! It has to triple as my craft room AND guest room. Really I just need to organize my life. cstruiks@hotmail.com
Hi Toni, I am a happy follower of ABFOL (and a happy Shaklee customer as well.) I love to be organized but I never quite make it all the way there!! xo,
I’m a follower!
A lot of spaces in my home could use some de-cluttering! Most importantly, my craft room and the linen closet!
Definitely my basement!
I am a follower of ABFOL!
The area I have the most trouble keeping up with is my kitchen. Since it gets the most traffic, it’s hard to keep up with maintenance and school papers!

My basement needs some organization. After a major declutter first 🙂
Toni, I am a follower of ABFOL and can’t wait to check out Laura’s blog as well! I have a house with lots of great storage space, however I am not so great at utilizing it. If I had to pick one space right now that needs the most organization, it would have to be my laundry room. It’s a mess, constantly!
I follow you!

My family room is a mess right now…..remnants of a move, a corner full of yard sale items, my furniture that I am painting….so cluttered and messy.
Also I have posted this on Facebook!
UGH! My whole house needs to be organized! If I had to pick one room though it would be the desk/office area of our basement. I’m horrible with desk organization!! It’s really very scary:P
I’m so excited that I found your blog. I’m a follower and now I’m going to go post about you on my blog:)

I am a follower. Wish I could pick just one spot that needs help…life would be much simpler! Lets start with the kitchen/dining area first. Yikes!

My biggest clutter problem happens on my kitchen counters. They seem to be a catch all, for mail, school papers, hubby’s keys, my crafting yarn/whatever craft project I am currently working on..etc. I would love to figure out a system to keep all the mess and clutter down to a bare minimum.

I am always organizing and re-organizing. I wish I could get to a place where I mostly stayed organized. I guess I need help everywhere. LOL.
I blogged it over at http://www.mylavenderave.blogspot.com.
I would have to say my biggest areas of disaster are the Kitchen and toy storage! I seem to LOVE everything in my kitchen but I think I’m holding onto items for their looks and not their function. my cupboards are to the max but I don’t know what to do! This would be a great book to have and share. ~Yvonne

My whole house needs organizing!
This is the first time I’ve read your blog, lucky me, just in time to follow and enter this giveaway! Just moved into a smaller apartment, so I need help organizing the whole thing – I can’t seem to find room for everything!
