Is there a spot in your house that is always a disaster? Always collecting clutter?

Mine is the laundry room. Generally I'm on top of washing/drying/folding the laundry, but it never gets put away and it's just a disaster in there at all times.
 
it's my bedroom too. I put all the clean washing/ironing to do in there, (we have a small house) and you know I don't always get around to doing it. I have far more important things to do, like scrap ;)
 
My entryway... and the laundry/office/utility room... and the bedroom... and... OMG :dizzy:imok
 
the closets of the master bedroom are a cluttered disaster. and on the weekends when everyone is home my kitchen counters and island seem to be the dumping ground for everyone's random stuff.
 
Ugh! I hate clutter spots! Usually it's the built in desk in my kitchen. I hate it!
 
I am normally VERY organized.. everywhere except home.. for some reason I am a pig at home.. *L* drives my man nuts
 
We are very anti-clutter. Kind of in a scary way. But, there is a small counter area next to the fridge that tends to get all my crap after I come home - purse, laptop bag, mail that I need to go through. I try to keep it picked up, but its so small that once 2-3 things get stacked there, it looks cluttered.

Yay someone like me at last
 
Our entry way table and the office tend to get this way. Up until a few months ago, our bedroom was a disaster too but I finally got on top of that and for the first time since I was a kid, I mostly have a clean bedroom now! :) Oh and our kitchen table is often cluttered from all the amazon prime shipping boxes that sit there waiting for my hubby to break them down and recycle them. LOL There's only the two of us so we never eat at the table.
 
We have several. All mine! The end of the counter in our kitchen, that's where mail and other assorted odds and ends wind up. Also the top of my desk nearest my office door. And the hall tree in the hallway by the bedrooms is where my jewelry always winds up piling up. My husband has a lot of patience.
 
My desk in the family room. It is small but has a shelf and I am always stacking something else on top of what's on top. Of course the floor around the desk holds the extras.
 
It's my laundry room, too. It's one of the biggest rooms in the house, but since it doesn't really get used for anything but laundry, things tend to just get thrown in there until.....
 
I am lucky (unlucky?) to have an extra "office" room. It's scary cluttered. I keep the door closed so my family won't call the Hoarders TV show on me!
 
It seems like a lot of us have that little desk in the kitchen for our purse, etc. It is my definite clutter spot in this house.
 
Um... pretty much every horizontal surface. :blush
 
The end of our island....drives me batty. My scrap table always seems to be the "let's pile here" place too.
 
That would be my bedroom, the dining room table, the snack table next to my laptop and the chair where I dump my coats. Pretty much my whole house.
 
My clutter is the top of the microwave, which annoys me to no end because it's like right in eyeline for any photo I take in the kitchen. The girls have a playroom for toy clutter that is out of control, lol.
 
Ours is the kitchen table. It sits right by the door, and collects everything that comes in - reusable grocery bags, library books, things to go elsewhere, etc. I hate it. Every time I clean it off, more stuff finds a home there. I have given up!
