Portola Valley Relocation
Our relocation services are a favorite of mine because I love having the opportunity to unpack and organize a home efficiently from the start. When a client is moving into a new home or a major remodel is involved, we are often brought in during the planning and building phases to help with the storage design and plan. This Portola Valley project is one of those cases. I began working with this client six years ago at their ... Keep Reading >>
Our Home: Master Bedroom
Next up on our home tour is our master bedroom. It's just off the bathroom (well, everything is just off the bathroom when you live in 900 square feet) and with the changes we made during the remodel it feels like a retreat. Originally this space was two separate bedrooms but we opted to remove a wall to create a livable room and carve out space for a walk-in closet. In many parts of the country it would be silly to remove a ... Keep Reading >>
Traveling Organizers: Lake Tahoe Vacation Home
The last few weeks of 2017 were packed with traveling organizing adventures including a trip to Lake Tahoe to unpack and organize a beautiful Truckee vacation home in Schaffer Mills, just down the street from the 2014 HGTV Dream Home. This project was originally slated for the summer/fall but due to construction delays the organizing couldn't begin until the week before Christmas. It was worth the wait through because we had the ... Keep Reading >>
Live with what you LOVE: Home Entry
This quote by William Morris simply defines the rules of living and loving what you live with. It is so simple to let go if you can change your mindset and ask yourself if an item useful in the current moment and if you still find it to be beautiful. Throughout the month of February I've highlighted my top tips and client success stories for letting go and living with what you love and today I'm wrapping up the series with entry ...

Live with what you LOVE: Bedrooms
Love is in the air this February and I have a new organizing blog series to go along. I work with clients everyday on the art of letting go but I also give them the push to dive in and add items that bring them joy. This series is called Live with what you LOVE. I encourage you to be inspired to identify what makes you happy, create goals of how you want to live, purge what you can live without and add what brings you ... Keep Reading >>
Top 10 Guest Room Must-Haves
We have been busy clearing the clutter from guest room floors, closets, and drawers, to make ways to holiday hosting. Guest rooms all too often become a dumping ground for unopened packages and returns, overflow linens, and all other postponed decisions when it comes to home decor and memorabilia. Our guest room is often filled with visitors who stay anywhere from one night to one month so I feel like I've got a pretty ... Keep Reading >>
Beautifully Organized Craft Cabinet
A client recently reached out to ask me to help her create a storage space for all of her kids crafts in their living room. Her goal was to have a functional and organized space that wouldn't be an eye sore the open concept space and we accomplished just that by clearing the clutter and creating a beautifully organized craft cabinet. The black hutch previously stored extra serving and entertaining items that we were able to ... Keep Reading >>
Home Organization Transformation Part I
Last Friday, Matt and I tackled a fun organizing project in a client's entry way and dining/living room. We started this project with a jump-start during last month's session with my clients - we had extra time after working in the garage. Last Friday's session was so fun to see the finished transformation on this space, a complete makeover! My clients have two young daughters that keep them very busy and I know all of you ...
