Ep 371: Ten Common Clutter Traps and How to Avoid Them with Martha Carol Stewart

Podcast · This Organized Life Podcast

Hi Friends,

On today’s show I am joined by my friend and fellow professional organizer, Martha Carol Stewart of Chaos Organizing in Baton Rouge. You may remember MC from episode 91 where we talked about Back to School Organizing Strategies, or episode 156 where we talked about Holiday Organizing and Storage, or most recently, episode 346 during our series on Unpacking After a Move.

Today we’re talking about 10 of the most common clutter traps and how to avoid them. 

  1. Laundry
  2. Mail
  3. Dishes
  4. Toys
  5. Clothes
  6. Kitchen Gadgets
  7. Books
  8. Papers
  9. Beauty Product
  10. Your car

We walk through each area and give some simple and practical solutions, so if you find yourself struggling in any of these areas, this episode is for you!

I’m also super pumped for the release of MC’s debut book Southern Chaos which is filled with beautiful images and showcases many of the nuanced spaces that are unique to the Southern Home. Grab your copy here!
