To contact us Click HERE
Lack of space is a common complaint for both men and women. So why not de-clutter as a Valentine's Day gift for your significant other? Examine the following trouble zones and take immediate action. 
Trouble Zone #1: The Bedroom
Both men and women are guilty of cluttering up the bedroom. This should be your romantic retreat, so why not de-clutter to increase the desire factor.
Idea:
Keep clutter out of bed and around it. Make room for your lover/spouse by kicking the magazines, books and papers out of the bed.  Have a basket or wicker box nearby to toss them in. Or create a "Electronic Corner” for MP-3's, DVDs, CDs,cell phones, Blackberry's, iPads and other electronic devices.  Let the electric charge that flows in bed be between you and your lover/spouse.
Gift Alert! Buy a charging station, but keep it away from the bed.

Trouble Zone #2:  The Bathroom
Women are often guilty of overloading the bathroom with too many hairdryers, beauty machines or too many beauty products they don't use.
Idea:
Women, why not have a cocktail party, do beauty treatments and give away some of those products to your friends?
Men -- Gift Alert
:  Buy her beautiful cosmetic storage boxes for Valentine's Day. But don't say "you're too messy, clean up” – let the gift inspire her. The idea is to give her more room – she won't get mad at that.
Trouble Zone #3:  Kitchen or Dining Room Table
Both men and women are often guilty of cluttering up the kitchen/dining table with keys, mail and magazines.  Food fuels satisfaction, so keep the table clear for romantic moments of sensuous feasting or unwinding with a good meal at the end of the day.
Idea: Make a proper place for keys, mail and magazines.
Create a place for each of these items.  Put an attractive key rack and a mail sorter near the front door, if possible.  Use a basket or wicker box to drop magazines in when they arrive.  In less than a minute you can reduce this common clutter. 
Trouble Zone #4:  The Clothes Closet
Women love to keep "skinny" clothes they're never going to squeeze into again. Force yourself to go through your closet and if you haven't worn it in a year or two donate it to the needy.
Idea:
Women, why not have a fashion show?  Invite a few close friends over and model your old favorites and if they don't fit, you can pass them on friends who have always wanted to wear them.
Men -- Gift Alert!
  Buy your lady some lingerie that sheer and flowing.  She won't feel fat, she'll feel sexy.  
Women -- Gift Alert! 
If you're tired of his socks, underwear and ties lying all over the place, buy him an organizer and do the first round of organizing for him. 
Trouble Zone #5: Garage, Attic or Hall Closet
Men, are you keeping ugly moose heads, singing mechanical fish or neon bar signs stuck in the closet or garage, attic or hall closet because she won't let you put them on the wall?  Why not put them in storage unit and create a "Man Cave” of your very own?
Women -- Gift Alert: Buy your man his own luxury "Man Cave” Getaway.
  A quick trip to Wal-Mart, Target or your local home décor store will provide you with many gift ideas.
