There are a few other organizers I have met in this great town of Athens. I love that we can support one another. I had the pleasure of having coffee with a new organizer just getting her feet wet in this business, Lisa Lewis. She has some great ideas and has been working on her own home and friends spaces for some time and is now available to help others. She has a special passion for helping those whose clutter has become debilitating and extreme. But for today I've ...continue reading

Most of the time the goal in organizing is to help make it easier to find things that we are looking for. But sometimes the goal is to make ...continue reading
Five On Friday | Five Favorite Organizing Tools
I have a few favorite things when it comes to organizing. Today I'm going to share five of them with you. If you have ever worked with me you can probably name a few because you're probably using them in your house. It will also come as no surprise to my friends and clients that you can find everything I suggest at Target. That's not to say that you can't buy these things at other stores...I just may or may not have a bit of an obsession with Target. In fact, I ...continue reading
