I decided to purchase the book after seeing a preview. The book does have ideas that are very useful for anyone. But the main focus is organizing room by room. So, if you have a very small space or limited funds, you may only be able to do a few of the projects.

Little did I know that how you fold clothing would save space, and cut down on clutter -- it works! How to organize emergency supplies was a nice surprise. How to deal with memorabilia is useful. You're taught to measure spaces and items to get a good idea what storage is needed (saves time and wasted purchases). There are several more ideas that anyone can use.

There are pictures throughout the book -- comes in handy for folding items. Each of the organizing projects is presented as a "recipe" with "Total Time", "Tools", and "Degree of Difficulty".

Alas, there is no index in the book and no list of resources for purchasing the tools she recommends. Sometimes it can be a bit vague. But still gives you some good ideas.
