organizing your space

Every other article I've read lately is about "getting organized" but I've seen very little on staying organized. Some of the organizational ideas I've seen/read on line are borderline ridiculous. One article I read recently was about hanging up sheets to divide a room or to hang up sheets to hide shelving that was placed against a wall. Are they serious? Sheets? The best idea that this so called interior designer could come up with was using sheets? Come on! Lets see some of your ideas on better organization. Lets not cover up our mess with sheets but openly display out organizational skills!
