Dave and Robin Zyboski have been married for three years and have a two year old daughter named Grace. Dave's someone who would enjoy working in an art studio and both would like a nice office to work in. They have both of these rooms in their home, but they're so cluttered with items such as a stuffed bunny chair that nothing can get done in them. Peter promises them organized beauty and helps them part with the clutter so they can have what they seek. They manage to go through things rather quickly, reducing them to a manageable level. This lets designer Angelo Surmelis get to work on the redesigns. The new art studio features a desk area for clients, a new computer desk, shelving for art books and even an easel for Grace. The office is given a Mediterrannean feel with beautiful lighting, a refurbished antique desk and area where Robin can relax with Grace.

Carrie and Kevin Meyers have been married for eight years and have three children. The years and Carrie's craft work have taken their toll on the home: the living room is filled with toys, games, papers and a piano that's unreachable. The bedroom is no place to sleep, as it's filled with unused sewing machines, unfinished craft projects, unused craft material and more. It seems that Carrie has attachment issues with the craft stuff, but fortunately, organizer Shelli Alexander is there to sort it all. She helps Carrie to let go of the idea that she's throwing things away by getting her to see that it can go on to a better purpose, and that when it's gone, she'll have time to complete the things that are truly important to her. Angelo Surmelis works to redesign the rooms, with a rather unique idea for the bedroom. It's given new photo displays, a reworked bed, a pristinely organized closet and perhaps the most noticeable feature: balls hanging down by the ceiling. After the homeowners re
