The Clutter Cure

Author: Judi Culbertson
Stars: 4
Review by: patco81

This is one of the better books on the market promising ways to organize and enjoy your home. Each chapter ends with a checklist ("Stuff List") in which the reader identifies items on hand, reasons for keeping (sentimental, valuable, gift, object of comfort, etc), and final disposition. Very helpful, as are the author's boxed and highlighted lists of Dangerous Phrases, i.e., "it might be important!" or "It belonged to my favorite aunt!" or "I paid good money (or conversely, "I paid only $2) for it!" I was tempted to buy this book, but wisely decided instead to leave it at the library and re-borrow as needed - a lesson learned from those very pages...
