Take the quiz: https://clutterbug.me/what-clutterbug-are-you-test

I found this kind of fun as a springboard for organisational ideas. The quiz results are followed up by a video for tips.

Personally, I am a bee:

Love visual abundance and organizational abundance. You prefer to see your everyday used items instead of hiding them away. You are also a bit of a perfectionist and tend to pile items until you can put them away properly.

Ladybug. Gotta be able to put things away easily and not have to deal with visual clutter.

I also struggle with visual clutter but also need to be able to see everything so a bit contradictory. Hence the bee need to have things visible but organised and also aesthetically pleasing I suppose.

I’m the same. I tend to put things in clear bins in cabinets and closets. So when I look in them I can see everything that’s in the bins, but when seeing everything is making me crazy I can close the door and not see it.

It says I'm a bee, too, some of which I agree with and some I don't. For several of the questions, none of the options were a very good fit.

Also allegedly a bee. I didn't see some options for not having a mess at all (in certain areas/situations).

Haha yeah, it's aimed mostly towards people who struggle with clutter in some way I suppose as she sells solutions (products, advice etc) and has a YouTube channel aimed at that.

My wife is a sucker for this stuff. She bought a ton of plastic bins and boxes after watching a bunch of tiktoks, and now our pantry is clogged with pretty bins AND the half a Costco box that didn't fit.
