The last splurge vs. save post I did about our favorite organizing products did so well I decided to write another one focusing just on baskets and bins. These baskets and bins are not only beautiful and affordable but will also help you stay organized in all areas of your home!

One of my favorite things to do for my clients is to design their closets. Recently, my team and I had the opportunity to design and organize multiple closets in our clients’ new home. Today I’m going to break down that process (with pictures!) and give you tips on how to organize your own closets. Below I go into detail a bit more about a master closet that we designed.

With spring finally here my team and I have been doing a lot of organized moves. Recently, we moved a growing family into their brand new forever home. We were able to get them in and completely organized in three days. Yes three days! How did we do it? By following some simple guidelines that I’ve listed below.

Last week I traveled to the beautiful and sunny Palm Springs so I could participate (and to celebrate the 10 year anniversary!) in this year’s Altitude Summit (Alt Summit). Creative business owners from across the country gather every year to take classes, hear speakers and create! This year there were 2,000+ attendees with speakers that included Joanna Gaines (@joannagaines), Cortney and Robert Novogratz (@thenovogratz), Danielle Lucia Schaffer (@citygirlgonemom), Susan Peterson (@freshlypicked) Joy Cho (@ohjoy) and…myself!

Today I am excited to share with you all the details from the amazing meet and greet I had with Erin Condren last Saturday! As some of you may know, Erin is the designer behind the ultimate planner, the LifePlanner. As an organizer you guys know I love my planner and her planners make keeping track of everything I have to stay on top of so easy. When Erin and I met, we instantly connected over our shared love for all things organization and the fact that we are both twin moms! I had the best time at this event and even got a chance to interview Erin. Below are some videos of our interview as well as some exclusive pictures from the event. Finally, don’t forget to check out some of my favorite Erin Condren products that I use linked in this post!

A question I get asked all the time is “where is that product from?”, so today I decided to share five products I typically use when designing and organizing spaces. As a bonus, I am also sharing their less expensive dupes! Check out a few of my favorite products and their less expensive counterparts in this post!

Lately it seems as if everyone has hopped on the recent organization craze. Everywhere you look you see beautiful images of perfectly decluttered and beautifully labeled and organized spaces. But how do you actually get there? As a professional organizer one of the main things (among many others!) that I do is to help my clients declutter and then implement versatile organizational systems that continue to keep them organized after I leave. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: getting organized isn’t a one-time event and I don’t treat it as such. I focus on creating systems that will last based on the needs and current lifestyle and habits of you and your family. With those elements in mind, I’m able to implement solutions that will last because they support how you are already living, making it easy and intuitive for you and your family to adapt.

There is something about spring that inspires people to declutter and organize. But, like I always say, organizing is not a one time event but rather a way of life. Something I tell my clients is that a good rule to follow is at least once a year try to pull out and re-evaluate the items in each room of your home, and with spring quickly arriving what better time than now?

As a business owner, busy mom of twins, and wife, I receive a lot of mail. So today I’m going to show you not only how I organize and file my mail and important documents but also teach you how you can create a mail ‘drop zone’ too!

Proud mom moment: my identical twin girls were on the Rachael Ray Show this week! If you’ve been following for a while, you’ll remember that my daughters Ellie and Marin shared their tips with Rachael Ray last year (more on that in this post), and Rachael Ray invited the girls to skip school and come hang out with her to hear more of their tips!
