It's one thing to get organized, but how do you make those systems stick? The Home Edit Stay Organized takes the intimidation and hesitation out of the maintenance involved to prevent you from abandoning your once-tidied systems or maybe help you to get organized in the first place!
When you have a system that works, maintenance is a breeze. Think of a silverware drawer: It's obvious where each utensil goes, and so everyone in your house should know how to move the forks from the dishwasher to their spot. Often, when you’re struggling to keep your home tidy, it’s because your system is too complex and needs some tweaking—and this book will dig deeper to show you how. Throughout the book, Clea and Joanna reveal the important habits, debunk the myths, address the setbacks of being organized, and new and exclusive images show you how to tackle the hardest and trickiest spaces in each room in order to create a home that's organized for the long term.
With inventory checklists, tips for getting the whole family on board to help, fans' frequently asked questions, and more, The Home Edit Stay Organized will help you move forward feeling calm, collected, and confidently organized—with humor, relatability, and beautiful imagery to enjoy along the way.

Organizing gurus and influencers Shearer and Teplin (The Home Edit Life) return with their latest book in "The Home Edit" lifestyle series. Their previous books introduced readers to the authors' organizing philosophy on arranging items in the home to regulate busy lives. This book focuses on maintaining organizational systems throughout various rooms in the home, starting from easiest (entry) to hardest (garage). Each chapter contains checklists, scripts, and a "Low-Bar Lifestyle Long-Term Goals" section to assist readers in creating their own personal organizational systems that can be modified as the family's needs change. The organizing basics of edit, categorize, contain, and maintain are discussed. The book also demonstrates how to incorporate household habits into a visually pleasing, organized system that is simple for all household members to maintain. While most concepts mentioned in the book are self-explanatory, it would have benefited from further explanations of the terms "backstock" and the "80/20 rule" for the readers who don't follow the authors on social media. But the photos in this book are Instagram-worthy. VERDICT An easy-to-read, judgment-free book for readers who want to tackle intimidating home organization projects.--Aspasia Luster
