Organizing for the Rest of Us
Organizing for the Rest of Us, by decluttering expert Dana K. White, features 100 cleaning and organizing tips--for real people living real lives--that free you to declutter in a way that works for the long haul. Includes full-color photography and high design.
Eliminate the clutter and discover the joy of having your house organized with simple, realistic strategies that work for normal people.
So you want to keep your kitchen counter clean, but you aren't ready to toss the toaster? You want to be able to find your kids' socks but aren't looking to spend your 401(k) on clear bins? You long for a little more peace, but minimalism isn't sparking joy? Discover 100 practical, doable tips to organize, declutter, and manage your home.
Traditional organizing advice never worked for decluttering expert and self-proclaimed recovering slob Dana K. White. Is it possible, she wondered, to get organized without colour coding my sock drawer? As Dana let go of the need for perfection, she discovered the joy of having an organized house in the midst of everyday life. You can too!
In Organizing for the Rest of Us, Dana teaches you how to make great strides without losing your mind in organizing every room of your home. You'll find her 100 easy-to-read organizing tips invaluable, including:

- The basics of organization for people who don't like to organize
- Why changing how we think about clutter is the first step to getting rid of it
- How living with less stuff is better for the environment, our spiritual lives, and our relationships
- The simple yet life-changing tactic that is the container concept
Organizing for the Rest of Us includes colourful, practical photos, a presentation page, and a ribbon marker, making it a thoughtful and useful gift or self-purchase if you are:
- Doing spring cleaning (or cleaning during any season)
- Making New Year's resolutions
- Downsizing your own home or your parents' home
- Decluttering and organizing for your own peace of mind
Fans of Dana's popular podcast, A Slob Comes Clean, will treasure this book as a timeless (and frequently revisited) resource. With her humorous, light-hearted, easy-to-follow approach, Dana provides bite-size, workable solutions to break through every organizational struggle you haveβ for good!

About the Author
Dana K. White is a blogger, podcaster, speaker, and (much to her own surprise) a decluttering expert. She taught both English and theatre arts before leaving her job to make her family her life's work. In an attempt to get her home under control, Dana started blogging as "Nony" (short for anonymous) at A Slob Comes Clean. Dana soon realized she was not alone in her housekeeping struggles and in her feelings of shame. Today, Dana shares realistic home management strategies with her signature humor and a message of hope for the hopelessly messy through her blog, weekly podcasts, and videos. Dana lives with her husband and three kids just outside of Dallas, Texas.
