    The 60 Second Rule

    If it takes less than one minute … do it immediately!

    That should just be the end of my story! But seriously, have you ever been rushing and think “I don’t have time for that?” How many “I don’t have time”s pile up into the mess you now don’t want to look at and definitely don’t want to tackle? Have you ever timed some of the menial tasks you are skipping? I have! I proved to myself most of the little things that were causing clutter in my home could have been dealt with in less than one minute. Am I a professional organizer? Yes! I had the systems in place where things SHOULD go. But I didn’t always bring them there either. Now I can boast I live in a clutter-free home. A guest could stop over any day and I have nothing to apologize for. With this one simple rule I turned my home from “please excuse the mess” to “come on in. What can I pour you?”

  • “But this is worth money…”

    “But this is worth money…”

    As a professional organizer, one of the most common objections to ditching clutter is its monetary worth. And I completely understand that!! I mean… I don’t even throw pennies away as we organize. Why on earth would I ask you to throw money away? But being unsure of its worth and how to extract that […]

  • Using Reminders on iPhone

    Using Reminders on iPhone

    One of the many consequences and causes of clutter and disorganization is memory issues. When your living space is cluttered, it takes up real estate in your brain and effects your focus, and in turn your memory. (Seriously! I know you probably already believe me, but Google it!) I spend most of my client time […]

  • The Island of Misfit Knick-Knacks

    My favorite Christmas claymation growing up was Rudolph: a story of a scrappy young misfit who became a hero. But my favorite part of the special was always when the misfit toys got picked up by Santa. The poor toys were banished to the island because “No one wants a Charlie in the Box” and […]

  • Save Storage Space By Decorating!

    While working at a client’s home this weekend, he asked me what the “Holy Grail” of organizing is. I told him that everything needs a place to live. Clutter and disorganization start only when we have run out of places to put our belongings. Does this mean we have too much stuff? Usually. Does this […]

  • “Clutter Eats Equity”

    Today I was sitting with a client and her real estate agent. We have been clearing the clutter and reorganizing to get ready for the house to go up for sale in the upcoming months. Very soon though, there will be more to do than just organize: it will be time to stage! And while […]

  • Start BIG!

    One of the things I hear the most frequently with new clients is they do not know where to start. Prior to calling me, they will pick up a few items and put them away somewhere, then look around what to pick up next. They will sort through a box of papers or small items […]
