I have some new clients that I am pretty darn excited about. We are new friends and have known each other for about a year. But this is first time that we have worked on any organizing together. They recently had the ability to travel abroad for an extended period of time and upon returning to their home they realized it was time to make some changes.

Five On Friday | Five Favorite Organizing Tools
April 25, 2014 By
I have a few favorite things when it comes to organizing. Today I'm going to share five of them with you.

In an unfinished basement you care about how things look but let's face it...you're looking at studs and insulation all around you. It's not THAT pretty. But when your space is finished you tend to feel the need to take your room to another level. My client loved this new space but she was ...continue reading
