The Kuzak's Closet team recently had the opportunity to organize 6,000 square feet of bliss at a Los Altos Hills custom home project. It is the first time that we've worked at the same property twice, the first project was an estate sale in 2014 and and now again that the house has been sold and remodeled (a complete coincidence). We started working with this client at their previous home for purging sessions a few weeks before ... Keep Reading >>
A “Kuzak’d” Pantry
I recently had a client call to inquire for organizing services. When she told me she wanted her pantry to be “Kuzak’d” I cracked up, how is it possible that the way that we organize at Kuzak’s Closet is becoming a verb! Pantries have always been one of my favorite areas to organize, mostly because it is often the most neglected area of a kitchen and selfishly because once I get my hands on one it becomes a beautiful space to ...

The Perfectly Organized Pantry
This morning Taylor and I met with a new client for an in-home organizing consultation, an experience that must feel odd for the client. I say odd because in most cases they haven't met any of the professional organizers from Kuzak's Closet before so we are complete strangers that they are taking on a tour of all of the nooks and crannies that most house guests never get to see. I mean, how many of your friends come over and you ... Keep Reading >>
An Organized Home in Silicon Valley Part 2
I'm back today with part two of this week's organizing inspiration! As I mentioned in Monday's blog post, my goal for 2015 is to balance out the estate sale marketing with more beautiful spaces that my staff and I have organized. In that post I shared gorgeous photos from a home that we have organized from top to bottom in Silicon Valley. It started as a relocation project and over the last 6 months we have unpacked, fine-tuned, ... Keep Reading >>
Pantries Don’t Have to be Painful
Today I am back with another pantry project. A new client of mine was sick and tired of the pileup in her pantry so she scheduled a session for me to work my magic. She thought it was going to take an entire day or two so she was surprised when I quoted the project for just shy of 4 hours. She is experiencing the start of empty nesting but her buying habits haven't adjusted. With two kids in college and one living at home she ... Keep Reading >>
Custom Pantry Transformation
Last week I worked on a two day pantry project, most pantries take me 2-6 hours to complete but this one took two days because we had to remove all of the items, dismantle the existing pantry, sort and toss the items, and then install a new custom pantry. On this project I acted as a project manager by coordinating with a cabinet company, providing suggestions for the pantry layout, scheduling and supervising the handyman and the ... Keep Reading >>
Kitchen and Pantry Makeover
The holidays are just a few weeks away making it the perfect time to clear out the clutter in your kitchen so you are ready to entertain your friends and family. Also, it couldn't be a better time to donate or regift all of the canned goods and cooking gadgets that you no longer need. ... Keep Reading >>
Kitchen Organizing with Before & Afters
A few weekends ago I started working with a hard working couple and busy parents of the cutest little boy. During our consultation they gave me a tour of their home as we discussed what they were struggling with along with their goals, timeline, and budget. The room they struggled with the most was the kitchen, it butts up to the living room (which also serves as a play room and home office) and had become a dumping ground for ... Keep Reading >>
