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 >>
Our Home: Bathroom Transformation
Next up on our home tour is our bathroom which is tiny so it will be a quick tour! We have a single bathroom and while it was an adjustment from our three bathroom rental, we have survived. We weighed the options of adding on a second bathroom but it wasn't worth it with our timeline and budget. After all of the numbers weighed in (carrying costs, additional rental costs, and construction costs) it would've only made sense to ... Keep Reading >>
Our Home: Living Room Transformation
Thank you all for the wonderful comments and questions on my last post featuring our kitchen remodel! You all seem to be loving the accent tile wall, banquette, and dutch door just as much as I do! Today's blog post features the changes we made to our living room, which is now open to the kitchen with the previous kitchen walls removed. Just to give you a frame of reference, here is the architectural plan we submitted for ... Keep Reading >>
Our Home: Kitchen Transformation
Our remodel was officially completed just over two months ago giving us the opportunity to move in just a few days before Christmas. I've shared updates of the process on the blog and through Instagram along the way. Thank you all for following along and cheering us on! Buying a home in this marketplace can be frustrating so having the opportunity to buy a home and remodel it from head to toe within a 6 month timeframe is still ... Keep Reading >>
Seattle Organized Kitchen & Pantry
You are probably thinking, oh, here we go, another beautifully organized kitchen and pantry with jars and chalk labels on the Kuzak's Closet blog. Yes...guilty, that is what you will see today! While sharing these beautiful afters is rewarding, I wish I could capture all of the purging and analytical reasoning that gets us to these end results each time. Kitchens are used by multiple members of the household and the needs of ... Keep Reading >>
Seattle Organized Master Closets and Beauty Bar
I'm back with another beautiful post from our December organizing adventure in Seattle. As I mentioned in the craft room post from this project, my client didn't prioritize to have her closet and bathroom organized, the focus was all about organizing the shared family spaces and zones for her children. Of course I wasn't going to leave at the end of the project without giving her an amazing closet "after" so we hustled through ... Keep Reading >>
Seattle Craft Room & Mud Room
Girls jut wanna have fun...and craft! When our Seattle client gave us her priority list of zones that she wanted us to tackle on our recent organizing adventure and I saw that she had the craft room in the second slot, just behind the kitchen and way ahead of the master bedroom and closet, I knew she had the heart of gold. Their new home was in the ballpark of 7,000 square feet, it was just days before Christmas, and starting a ... Keep Reading >>
Traveling Organizers: Seattle Adventure
The last quarter of 2017 involved really great relocation projects that took us to Cabo, Tahoe, and Seattle. Typically we only travel for client's that we have previously worked with on professional organizing projects here in Silicon Valley but when the request to travel to Seattle to help a new client transition from their Los Altos home to a new chapter in the Seattle I decided to take the plunge and take us on the adventure ...

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 >>
