My fav thing to do in a waiting room is to organize my purse. I take everything out, throw out garbage, separate recycling, and put it all back in an organized way. To the point that I’m sometimes disappointed when they call me because I’m not done. 😂 Who’s with me? Who else uses waiting time as organizing time?
That time we tore down all the walls in our upstairs 😳
Where my moms at? 😂 Get in touch for help curating last year’s art and schoolwork to make room for the paper onslaught. 🙌🏻
I’ve been doing a ton of @airbnb styling this spring & summer! When we’re sourcing materials I love sourcing items from various sources - from high end to free! This space includes new textiles from @bouclair for that cozy feel, a vintage couch set we scored on @nlclassifieds, a church pew from @facebook marketplace, and the real winner, this massive vintage map that ties the whole colour scheme together - it was scored for free from someone who decluttering it! Style can be found at any budget as long as you’re creative in sourcing. (And yes, my services include picture hanging because I have laser level eyes 😂).
Laundry room organizing phase 1! Swipe left to see the before although the before is taken when I was already halfway through the project because I suck at remembering to take photos 😂. We pulled everything out, re-homed non-laundry items to other rooms, grouped like with like, put infrequently used items on higher cabinet shelves, and reorganized the white units to the left as laundry central with detergent, stain removers, clothespins, and other supplies. This room has to function as a shared space in a vacation rental so it was important that items are easy to find. Next steps are to move the washer beside the dryer for easier work flow, hang some art, purchase some pretty hampers, paint, and (of course) labels!

Had a conversation with someone today about clutter. She mentioned trying to teach her kids that if they buy less stuff, they can travel more - something she loves. She said, “Buy less. Do more!”. I replied that that would be a great life mantra. What would you prefer - travel or stuff?
You can buy all the containers you want - if you just put things here for now instead of deciding on a home and maintaining that system, you won’t have a tidy space. I’ll often return to a perfectly organized space to find the work has been undone and the client can’t figure why it wasn’t ‘fixed’. No container, no professional organizer, no pretty labels are a match for habits. #selfsabotage #habitsmakeresults
Trying to get clear on what should stay and go? Whether it’s a nightstand, a craft room, or the kitchen island, try asking yourself what’s the job of this space?
I was chatting with a client recently about the stuff we keep in our homes. Items we hold onto until someone else’s kids grow into them, items we keep in case someone asks “Where’s that ___ I gave you?”, items we keep because we feel guilty getting rid of them, and more. The client vented, “Who decides what stays?!” In my case, I don’t give up space in my house to obligation. I don’t give up space in my house to guilt. I decide what stays in my house and that includes things that are functional for my family, things we love, things we use, and things we have the space for. I decide what stays in my house; who decides what stays in yours?
When your intern gets it - a consumable gift tailored to me (I’m a gum addict) before go to help someone in a hoarding situation. Best of luck to Lindsay who has bravely dug into the learning AND the stuff - all with a smile!

Years ago I stopped apologizing for my home - no matter how dirty, how disorganized - I simply don’t do it (you’ll notice how much you do it now). And then recently I saw Nanette by @hannah_gadsby and realized how much we make fun of ourselves and put ourselves down. Most of my clients are moms and I hear it all the time - “Mom of the year right here!” because there’s piles of laundry, because you’re decluttering kids’ “art” or toys, or (heaven forbid) because your kids have rules that mean sometimes they’re not happy. Instead of decluttering another closet, let’s declutter self-deprecation today. No more self-deprecating mom of the year posts on social media; no more self-deprecating comments about how organized ( or not) our homes are; no more self-deprecating comments about our personalities, preferences, or what we will or won’t put up with. Down with self-deprecation!
