Seasonal Decorations
It’s that time of year. We have a bunch of holidays ahead of us, each with it’s own vibe. Halloween is spooky, Thanksgiving is harvest, Hanukkah is sparkly and Christmas is festive. If decorating for the holidays brings you joy, this can be a lot of fun, but also can bring a lot of things into your home that are used for very short periods of time. That is unless you are decorating for these holidays in line with the retail calendar. Thankfully, I haven’t seen any friends decorate for Halloween in July - yet.

Mindful Shopping on Amazon Prime Day
It’s no wonder people are frustrated with all the stuff in their homes. The temptation of a good sale, the excitement of a new & improved item, the rush of that box showing up on your doorstep. They’ve got many of us pretty good. This is a great time to reflect on our shopping habits over the past several years and prepare for the temptations and urgency that are ramping up.
The purpose of this post is to prepare you for the coming days. Knowledge is power and while I’m sure you already know how this time of year makes you feel, it doesn’t hurt to have a little reminder or perspective going into it.
Organizing Tiny Spaces: Dorm Room Edition
Organizing and maintaining a tiny space can be just as - or even more - challenging as a large space. You need to get creative, prioritize, and be a real problem solver as you try to Tetris all of the things into a limited area. Dorm living is a great example of this challenge!!
Maintaining a decluttered home
We have to be diligent about controlling this influx in order to preserve all that hard work & time you have been investing in your home.
To organize you must minimize.
The last thing I want to do is to go to someone’s home and get rid of all of their stuff. I want you to know what you have and use what you have.
The Life Changing Magic of….Hygge
When decluttering and organizing the parts of our lives that feel hectic and crazy, remember the “things” that make you feel good, that nurture connections, and that allow you the time and clarity to breathe.
