We all have clutter: from piles of magazines in the sitting room, overstuffed drawers in the bedroom, cupboards full of little-used kitchen utensilsHow we wish to be more organised as we frantically search high and low for something we know we've put somewhere.. American designer Paige Gilchrist brings order to this chaos in her down-to-earth, understanding and completely unpatronising way. Well-aware of our hording tendencies, she gently persuades us to re-evaluate our stuff, sorting it into used everyday, once a month, once a year and then offering a storage solution to suit. From make-your-own shelves and cupboards to wicker baskets and galvanised buckets, she has ideas to suit every home, both modern and traditional. Moving those magazines into a basket makes them instantly more attractive and portable. Hiding surplus clothes and shoes in boxes under the bed releases space in the wardrobes. Hanging bags, baskets and notes on peg boards, draping towels over ladders in the bathroom and creating a bathroom holder from old bricks are just some of the ideas offered. Not only will your clutter be more organised but it will be transformed into something more appealing than an unidentified heap on the floor. Although some of the projects may appear daunting at first, careful reading will soon dispel this and have you heading for the nearest toolkit to give them a try. But best of all is Paige's refusal to succumb to the 'less is best' mentality, she values your clutter as much as you do and only offers hints at how best to deal with it.
