Krista and I had the pleasure of talking with our guest today, Aby Garvey of  Simplify 101 & Creative Organizing Blog.

Here’s the Pearls of Wisdom from the show today:

  • Aby mentioned that organizing is different from storage. Interesting?  I thought so!
  • Organizing is more than just products, but thinking about the overall space and your needs.
  • Maintaining a space has a lot to do with establishing habits.
  • Aby’s “Bucket List” post

We also mentioned…..
Organizing for Your Brain Type, by Lanna Nakone

Hi! My creative outlet is taking pictures and scrapbooking. I just haven’t figured out how to properly scrapbook and don’t know where to begin, really. Thanks!

Well, for a creative outlet I used to scrapbook. I would love to get back into it. I also really want to do embroidery. Right now, I am only creative in writing and designing.

Thanks for entering me into the giveaway!

Hello,
I like to crochet and do puzzles in the winter and at other times of the year I enjoy paper crafts, gluebooks, and altered art/books. It would be great to utilize the information/techniques from this book since scrapbooking is a close relative. (At least in my opinion.)
:)
