NAPO 2023 Summit Report | A Case Study in “Tetris Organizing”

This week Gayle is attending the annual summit of the National Association of Productivity and Organizing Professionals in Las Vegas. She’ll share a report on the latest news, ideas, trends, and products in the organizing industry.

Do your closets or storage spaces resemble a game of Tetris, with every item, box, or bin carefully shoehorned into its designated slot? We’ll discuss the pitfalls of “Tetris organizing” and suggest alternative approaches that are easier to use and maintain.

In our next meeting, we’ll discuss these topics and answer questions from our viewers and listeners.

The Clutter Fairy Weekly is a live webcast designed to help you clear your clutter and make space in your home and your life for more of what you love. We meet Tuesdays at noon (U.S. Central Time) to answer your decluttering questions and to share organizing tools and techniques, success stories and “ah-hah!” moments, seasonal suggestions, and timeless tips.

We meet using the Zoom video-conferencing app, a free tool that allows the audience to share questions and comments live online or over the phone. Up to 100 people can participate live via the Zoom app. We also live-stream the meetings on our Facebook page and record each event to post on our YouTube channel:
