Let a Professional Organizer help you get rid of more than the box!

When I find a piece that I want to use in a project, I am relentless in making sure I’m getting the best price. Did you know that many popular retailers sell the same items that you can find elsewhere for less? Here is an example of two furniture items that I’ve purchased in the past from Wayfair, but that I first found on WS Home and Pottery Barn. Some items on Wayfair may only be visible to registered designers, so let me know if there’s something you’d like my help in finding for your next home design project!

It can be difficult to create a gallery wall of your favorite photos, but with this stylish product from Pottery Barn you can create a clean, modern look without all the measuring and countless holes in your wall. Mount multiple of these in a hallway or up a staircase and you’ll optimize your space with little effort!

Did you resolve to get organized this year?

Join me for a virtual workshop, and 1 hour private session, where I will walk you through cleaning out and organizing a closet in your home. Get 2021 started off on the right foot by making space for all your shoes (or coats, purses, jeans, etc.)!

Workshop will take place on two consecutive days for 2 hours each. First day will be focused on clearing out the space and how to let go of things that are no longer serving you. The second day you will learn how to organize the space in a way that works for you and others that use it. Up to 1 hour virtual private sessions will be scheduled to get more specific advice about your individual space and needs. Minimum 4 attendees needed per workshop, but maximum of 6.

Choose between
Session 1: January 23 and 24, 9am-11am PT
or
Session 2: January 26 and 27, 9am-11am PT

Another example of making use of the insides of cabinet doors, while establishing work zones, this being the “shred zone”. Creating a space inside the cabinet with the shredder ensures that this type of paper has a “home” and doesn’t pile up on my desk, helping me to keep it looking neat. Once the pocket is full I can sit and do a session while listening to a podcast or pay my teenaged daughter to do it 😉 If your shredder is out in the open, you could attach a folder to the side of it. The goal in all organizing is to keep “like with like” as much as possible.

As many of you who have worked with me know, my organization motto is “Practical, not perfect”. In my own spaces and those of my clients I strive to create systems that are easily maintained...by everyone who will be using them. As an Interior Designer, I believe good design is functional and beautiful, in that order.

Example: My husband has a large home library and if I arranged it by color, he would go mad trying to find a book, as people don’t memorize the color of every book spine. The library is organized into a few general topics and then by author because that is easiest for him. I will style the bookcase to be attractive, with art and objects, but more importantly it has to be easy for him to find and replace his books.

Forget the cute containers and clothes sorted by color that you see on social media. Particularly during the pandemic, we need to be realistic.

Great look at how Olga Naiman works, which is very similar to how I work. She doesn’t refer to herself as a “Professional Organizer”, in addition to being a Designer, but it is what she does. If you’d like to improve the look, feeling, and function of your own space, contact me!

The fournder of the design company Aparat asks her clients to describe the life they want to lead, and goes from there.

My interior design AND subsequent home staging work in Tiburon, CA. Many pieces were custom-made or vintage (I love shopping on 1st Dibs), but you can also find some of these items at DWR.com and HD Buttercup.

Professional Organization isn’t about moving your things around so they look nice and then printing out some labels. It’s about “transferring skills” so that you learn how to maintain your space and the systems I’ve set up on your own. I’m “teaching you how to fish”, so to speak. Contact me today to get started!
