Who wants to get their home and life more in order?
I’ve set aside the month of March to really focus on organization in my home and life. We’re getting ready to move to Tennessee in April and this is the perfect time for me to clean the house from top to bottom and clear out clutter. And I’d love for you to join me!
Want to Follow Along?
Starting Monday, March 3, every weekday morning at around 10 a.m. EST, I’ll be posting the day’s assignment and then every evening at around 8 p.m. EST, I’ll be posting my progress and pictures, along with a link-up for you to share your progress and pictures, too.

I love this! It’s simple and allows me to do an entire home clean-up step by step! Thank you for this extensive home cleaning guide! I love it!
Carrie says
I am crazy OCD yet lately, it seems, everywhere except my own home! For the past several months it has simply become a place to sleep during the week and a place to pack and unpack suitcases on the weekends. ?
Norma Hunter says
I was just curious if there might be a Facebook group for this.
Thanks
Norma Hunter says

I am going to attempt this challenge a few days late. My husband is going to pick up a task and help me make up the missed days.
My home needs much attention. I have 6 children and I need to completely organize and clean our home. I am able to keep the “guest” areas decent but the home is generally disorganized.
I need this and so does my home and my family.
Crystal Paine says
You can do it! I’m cheering for you!
Janelle Marin says
this sounds like such a great idea. I need this.
Mary Quesenberry says
We moved nearly 3 years ago and I’m STILL trying to get things in order. It didn’t help that I later had to empty a full size storage unit, then my brother decided we needed to go thru my Mom’s and our two great-aunt’s estates that my Mom had never gone thru. Everything was in his garage and he wanted to clear it out. The house we bought had closets, but no rods or shelves or flooring, I had to tape, mud and paint 2 rooms. There have been many other things in the house needing our attention. In this time, I’ve had a hysterectomy, ear implant, cellulitis and have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia. And I work 40 hours/week. I lead an exciting life. 🙂 Next week we are supposed to be having a house appraisal to refinance our house and I am at my wit’s end. Regardless of how the appraisal turns out, I have to finish putting stuff away and finish all the rooms. Your info and help will be a lifesaver!
Jo says
Thank you!!!
I love having the ebook, all the info at my fingertips without searching through the computer.
Thank you for your organization and willingness to put it all down in writing for us. I appreciate your sharing of your talents that you have been blessed with.
Annette says

This came just in time. I like to think I’m a very organized person but there is always room for improvement. With 4 kids (ages 2-18) and a husband I am always cleaning. I’ve been getting lazy with the cold weather (I live in Maine) so it’s time to start getting busy again. I’ve just started a new Facebook page of household tips. I post a new tip every day. My new page has helped get me moving and now I’m eager to start your challenge. Bring it on!!
Here is the link to my page: https://www.facebook.com/todaystips

Looking forward to starting this! I’ve started with my 2 girls clothing already this past week to get rid of all the things #2 has grown out of. We were saving it to use again, but just found out last week our 3rd and last is a boy!!!! I am so excited, and at my halfway point I’m already starting to nest somewhat and trying to start getting things in order and figure out what we need. I’m excited, and hope this helps get rid of some of our clutter and get more organized to prepare for our little mister this summer!

Rg Tecson says
Doing this! Very late Valentine’s day present for the OCD hubby, but at least now he won’t be coming home grumpy and yelling about the mess. This is definitely going to be a challenge because I have 3 kids (7 & 5 years old, and 8 months) AND I run a family daycare and have 5 two-year olds with me the entire day, too! Good luck!

Because this was quite a surprise we have very little time to prepare our house to sell so we can move. My husband starts work there in a month. Help!!!! This challenge will hopefully help me get started.
Clare C. says
I’ve been good in February about doing 15 min. a day of decluttering but it would be fun to do this along with everyone else. The accountability and ideas of where to go next would be great inspiration.
Christyl says
I need this too! We just moved two months ago from Los Angeles to Vancouver, Canada and I still have over twenty boxes to unpack and find places for everything with two young kids at home! I’m hoping this will help me sort things and find permanent homes for them. 🙂

Stacy Stechman says
My house needs an overhaul and I can use all the help I can get!!

Moving from our tiny basement apartment this summer! This will be a great jumpstart on that process…and all of the deep cleaning that I’ve put off “because we’re moving and I’ll have to do it anyway.” 🙂

Can’t wait for this challenge, as I really need to spring clean.
Janet says
Super excited about this. We’re considering a move ourselves, and the house needs cleaned out anyway, so I am thrilled to have someone else put together the plan to get it accomplished. I need the guidance!
Bronwyn says
I definitely need this! We’re moving overseas later this year, so I may need to do this now, and then again in a couple of months. 🙂
Amber says
Looking forward to this!
Ellen says
I’m in! Let’s go!
deanna says
Sounds like a great idea to me!
lisa says
with a new baby due at the beginning of April this will be the perfect way for me to get the house ready for her grand arrival!
[email protected] says
I was planning on working through a lot of my spring cleaning during the whole month of March. This is the extra push and accountability I needed!
Thanks.
Shelley says
My house gets less and less organized and more frustrating. I can’t wait to tackle this job, full steam ahead!
Ashley says
This comes at the perfect time as we are putting our house on the market this month and I’ve been trying to figure out how to clean, declutter and prepare for move to another state. This will help immensely as we get the house ready for showing! Thank you so much for this!
debby preciado says
My husband and I will be joining in. I’m very excited.
Stevi says
I’m in! thought me and hubby live with my mother in law I could deff use this to organize our room and our daughters room (having only 2 rooms to put all our stuff in doesn’t seem to be working out to well lol)
Jenni says
I’m in. I need a better system so my husband can find stuff, too, not just me. 🙂
Rosemary Guyton says
One of my major goals this year is to reclaim our home so we can enjoy it again. I’m making slow head way. Hoping this will give me more progress. Thanks.
MicheleStitches says
We moved cross-country last summer, so I did a LOT of letting go before that big move. I am currently in process of moving cross-town…to a SMALLER house! Next weekend we will be hauling our furniture over to the new place. I am looking forward to any inspiration and help this challenge can offer as I go through this downsizing!
Rebecca says
Thanks for making the ebook available. I need to declutter/organize, but I just had my 4th baby last week, so I know I won’t be able to keep up with you. Thanks again.
Lisa says
I need this! Excited to do it together!
D says
You are coming to my home state! You will love Tennessee!!! Can’t wait to get organized with you!
Nicholle says
Just what I need.
Nicole says
I have decided to stop fooling myself into thinking my house is “organized enough.” If it is, this challenge should be a piece of cake, haha! If not, well… this will help me get into gear. So, I’m in!
Toya says
I’m in! Preparing for a community yard sale in April and a move at the end of July.
Amanda says
I’m really excited for this challenge! 🙂
Carlye Rankin says
I am so in! I can’t wait to become more organized!
Julie V. says
I’m ready to get started! My house is in definite need of organization.
Michelle says
It seems like you just bought your 100% down home that is so perfect!!! What prompted the move? – I need to declutter as well as organize – – thinking the decluttering comes first, but I think I will try to do both at the same time since I can’t seem to find a lot of things lately, lol.
Crystal Paine says
Believe it or not, we’ve been in this house since July of 2010! We’ve always felt that we were probably here just for a season, so we’re excited about the new opportunities that lie ahead of us. I talked a little about our move here: https://moneysavingmom.com/2014/01/say-goodbye-survival-mode-conference-call-replay.html
Erika says
I was going to start this challenge a few weeks ago, and noticed you were going to start it on your blog. I waited for you because I know I’ll do much better with you as my lead! Thank you!
Melony says
We are currently 8 weeks out from welcoming baby #4 and so excited! But I’m definitely feeling the nesting instincts starting to kick in, so this will be perfect. With pregnancy brain, it’s hard to remember things these days….a checklist is exactly what I need! Whoo hoo!!!
Shana says
I’m in!
Sarah says
I can’t wait! Recent winter illnesses and snow days have gotten us behind in the house and I am so ready to get back on track!
Shannon says
I planned to start on spring break but this sounds like the motivation I need!
Beth says
Need some guidance in organization, looking forward to this month!
Jill says
Yay for moving to Tennessee! I am moving there in a week myself! I’m looking forward to doing the challenge for the week I am still here.
Rebecca says
I have been trying to work on this since the start of the year and have slacked off. I needed this motivation! Thank you!
Allison says
Looking forward to getting more organized… 🙂
Alka Sood says
I am definitely in. Looking forward to getting organized
Erin says
Thank you!! I’ve been thinking but wasn’t sure how to get started! Now I’ve got some help thanks!!
Leatha says
I’m looking forward to this!
Abra says
I’m in! We recently moved and I still trying to find a place for things. I am sure this will help.
Becky G says
Crystal, I am excited to do this with you & the other ladies here! I have gotten on a regular cleaning schedule, in addition, everyday I do a quick clutter pick up which has helped me immensely in keeping the house looking decent & clean. Decent is great when you homeschool & you “live” in your home 24/7! lol! This will take me to another level & the accountability I will get will help get me motivated! Thanks for inviting us to join you! 🙂
Mystery says
Planning on joining as well. I hope it’s something similar you did about two years ago – it was a true challenge (and my heading crates had never been so clean!). The one last year was just regular cleaning and not nearly as much fun 🙂
Jen says
I can’t wait to start! We are in the process of trying to sell our house and though I’ve been working to declutter and organize, it all feels so overwhelming. I’m glad to have your help and direction!
Crystal says
I’m in. Definitely need to get done organization in this house.
T Sconce says
Excited to do this!
Janine says
I cannot wait to start this!
Tina says
Ready for the challenge! Time to get focused and turn over a new leaf! Let’s do this! 🙂
Tracy says
I am currently in nursing school and my house has taken a beating to say the least. I am looking forward to this to help me clear out some clutter and organize so I have an easier time with maintenance cleaning. Glad we have Spring Break coming up!!
Mandy Cheshire says
I need a little reminder and motivation to make progress in this stem I will try to follow along, too!
kate says
Great way to start my spring cleaning and purging!!
Wendy, A Day in the Life on the Farm says
Just in time for Spring cleaning. Thanks Crystal.
Tamara says
I am looking forward to this. This month I’m really trying to make some much needed changes in my life.
Becki @Running with Team Hogan says
I’m excited for this challenge. I managed to get my house somewhat clean and organized and to keep it that way for more than a week in February. We need much more organization, and this is the perfect time for us to start this challenge. (I’m sure my clean house would be messy to some people, but this was a big deal for us to tame a lot of clutter. I need to remember to not compare my weakness to another’s strength, right? ) It just feels so good to have clean rooms and to get rid of stuff. Tomorrow looks like it’ll be a snow day – perfect day to start this challenge. 🙂
Tara H says
I’ve been kind of working on this on my own (slowly!). It will be great to be a part of the challenge! Thanks, Crystal! 🙂
Meredith M says
Moving to Tennessee?? When did that happen?:) I’m in…. I can’t wait to get my house done. Bring it on!
Tabitha says
My thoughts exactly! What did I miss? Tennessee??
Crystal Paine says
I shared about our move here: https://moneysavingmom.com/2014/01/say-goodbye-survival-mode-conference-call-replay.html
Jennifer says
Yeah, I want to hear more about this move. You just bought your house, so now I am hungry for details!
Cathy says
Yes, that caught my eye. I live in TN. I love it here, and I hope you guys will too, but aren’t you moving away from all your family?
Wendy H. says
Luckily, my house is pretty well organized now. My husband and I are retired, and our children live on their own with their families. Our daughter and her family lived in our family home for several years. The dryer caught on fire (not lucky), and the house had to be gutted. The structure was still sound because our wonderful fire departments got here in time and contained the fire in the basement. Smoke damage was different though. To make a long story short, our house is “new” inside; my husband and I moved back in here 2 years ago, and since it is only us we keep it pretty organized. To those moving or are in Tennessee, I have lived here all my lifeand it is GREAT!!!
Stephanie j says
I’m joining in! Need to get things under control.
Maria says
Like Amanda, I had made goals to clean up my house, which I flopped on majorly in February. I hope to attempt the “40 bags in 40 days” during Lent this year, so this will probably give me a push to do more. The way my schedule is, however, doing any housework on Tuesdays and Wednesdays is very difficult. I’ll probably have to tweak and adjust things to fit into my schedule.
Jackie says
Thanks so much for all of your great ideas!
Amanda says
I am a working mom and have been trying to organize my house for the new year. So I look forward to your posts on this!
Jenny says
I’ll be joining in- looking forward to spring cleaning!
Karen Horn says
Moving from TX to SC in July. I am all in.
Andretta says
I’m ready to begin. I have accumulated many things; toys for 3 (under age 2) grand babies; and craft projects. Time to organize.
Cathy R says
I am very excited to join you on this challenge. I really need this!
Jan says
I need help! Time to get control of trouble areas! Thanks!
Elisabeth says
I had already set a goal to have gone through my entire house by the end of March setting aside yard sale items and organizing. April will be my month of deep cleaning. We are moving from Alaska to Kentucky in June.
Lori says
I am excited to follow you on this journey!
