We’re doing something a little different for this edition of the Professional Organizers Blog Carnival. Rather than focusing on a specific aspect of organizing, readers were invited to submit a Top 10 List post, and the response was amazing! Read on, and don’t forget to let the bloggers know you found them through the Professional Organizers Blog Carnival!

I am very excited to announce that we have two new Professional Organizers Blog Carnival Star Bloggers:

A former professional organizer, I now eliminate stress for my clients by hosting, monitoring, and maintaining their WordPress sites so they don’t have to worry about security, downtime or performance issues. When I’m away from my desk, I enjoy reading, photography, watching movies, and cooking.
