From this...
Guys you are in luck! My friend and sponsor Aby of Simplify 101 is offering a spot in her upcoming Organize your Paper Clutter Online Workshop!
The workshop starts July 14th and in it you will learn everything you need to know to get control over your paper, like where your paper is coming from and steps you can take to slow the inflow. You’ll also learn how to store and organize your paper and how to select the solutions that will work best for you.
To win this awesome give-away all you have to do is to leave a comment below. Any comment will do, you can say "Gimme that freebie" or "I'd love that" or whatever you can think of that lets Aby and me know you are up for it!
I know some of you have taken one or several of Aby’s classes already, as have I, and loved it! If you are new to the online workshop world, Aby has a great description here on what it is like to take a class, and here you can find comments from past class participants.
Please leave your comment before Thursday evening my time and I’ll enlist Wille or Martin to help me draw a lucky winner! Photos: Simplify 101
Comments are now closed for this give-away!
I'm unemployed and we just built a desk and re-did our home office space. But the papers are still out of control! Please help! This would really give me a much needed boost. Thanks for sharing your tidy and inspiring Swedish life with us, Benita.

Oh, luckily there were others too who happily (?) admit that they would need some(and more) help - me too. Count me in, please.
Thank you for this!
Yours,
Mia

Benita
Part of my daily routine is checking your blog. I'm sure that I've viewed all the history and saved so many of your how-to blogs for future reference. Thank you for all your hard work.
You really have changed my mindset of how to look at organising my cupboards, paperwork and clothes. I just need more energy to get it all done and finish jobs oncd started - any tips for that? Do you use any exercise plans or do any sports like pilates or running, etc?
Thanks for the opportunity to enter the competition too. It would be great.

Å jösses... Klart jag vill vinna!

Posted by: Kajsa | July 08, 2009 at 08:42 AM
Oh yes please! If this contest was on paper I would have lost it by now.
Posted by: diana minna | July 08, 2009 at 09:03 AM
I think that I know most of what's in my many piles of papers. The rest of the family totally disagree.

I desperately need that workshop!! Vi bor i en trea och har precis gjort om vårt arbetsrum till sovrum åt vår ettåring - i samband med det så kom mängder av papper fram och jag vet inte hur jag ska lösa det så jag får plats med allt. Jag behöver verkligen hjälp...!
Tack för en superblogg!

Wow. Her class must be amazing. I seriously need to do a desk clean. It is piled high.
Posted by: Lynda | July 08, 2009 at 01:31 PM
Bring it on, I'm ready to learn how to organize that demon called paper.
Posted by: lisa | July 08, 2009 at 01:38 PM

Posted by: aimee | July 08, 2009 at 01:50 PM

Posted by: emily | July 08, 2009 at 01:55 PM
If you saw the inside of my office doors, you would probably cry! I really need this! Thanks for the opportunity.
Posted by: Amanda | July 08, 2009 at 01:59 PM
Detta skulle jag verkligen behöva, papper är mitt svagaste område här hemma. Allt annat funkar skapligt eller i vissa fall till och med utmärkt, men pappershögarna växer ständigt.
Posted by: MiaKvack | July 08, 2009 at 03:55 PM
I need this so bad! Please help me get organized! Love your blog and so look forward to your postings.
Posted by: Angela | July 08, 2009 at 04:27 PM
This is at the top of my to do list!
Posted by: Samantha | July 08, 2009 at 05:05 PM

Posted by: Shirl | July 08, 2009 at 11:12 PM
My husband and I just moved into a smallish 1928 house in San Diego, California and I swear we could insulate the entire house with our paperwork. For some reason I have a deeply rooted fear of getting rid of "important" papers that I might need someday. Your blog is a daily read for me as I imagine you have no such problem as hanging on to excess papers.
Posted by: Kristen Vik | July 09, 2009 at 12:23 AM
Oh why not? I can't seem to get it together on my own......
Posted by: april | July 09, 2009 at 12:42 AM
The past four years of college have been a nightmare due to my inability to organize. I'd like my fifth (and hopefully final) to be a little less stressful. Pretty please?
Posted by: ashley | July 09, 2009 at 02:02 AM
My family an dI need thsi help! Thanks. :)
Posted by: Elizabeth G | July 09, 2009 at 02:10 AM
I think I need it as well! :)
Posted by: Marta | July 09, 2009 at 05:46 AM
If you should see my "office" at home you would pick me directly...I got the will but not the knowledge and I can assure you I would be the perfect pupil!
Posted by: Tanja | July 09, 2009 at 06:00 AM
With a little luck... Would be fantastic to win.
Posted by: Monica | July 09, 2009 at 06:15 AM
I've always wanted to take that!!
Posted by: Kristin | July 09, 2009 at 07:59 AM
I'm sooo disorganized and I have sooo many piles of papers - important stuff mixed up with garbage. I think I'd really love this class... :)
Posted by: AnnaB | July 09, 2009 at 09:00 AM
Just in time to let you know that I could definitely use some help!
Posted by: Vanja | July 09, 2009 at 09:16 AM
