What We Do

If organizing were just a matter of putting our stuff where it belonged,
we'd all be organized!

Home Office

The fact is life is not that simple and neither are we.

As professional organizers, helping you understand how your lifestyle has started to control you instead of the other way around is one part of what we do. The other part is working with you to impart what we know to get your life organized and back on track.

It doesn't matter if it's your office, closet, car or even your brain. It's the same process. Think of it as a personal training session for your mind and your space.

How We Do It

Kitchen Counter

  • We help you understand the cause of your clutter, and work with it as it usually holds the key to getting and keeping you organized;
  • We teach you practical skills for thinking like an organized person using your preferences;
  • We show you how to give your thinking process more options;
  • We help you engage those areas of your mind to work differently or, if they've become a little flabby, back to the way they used to be when you were a reasonably organized person.

For example, one of our clients, a retired female executive, kept all her old expired spices in glass jars for 25 years. She was holding on to a false identity of herself as a domestic diva when in fact she never cooked at all. How did those spice jars enrich her life? After a short time, with our help she got rid of them and never looked back.

Linen Closet

Consider how LET'S MAKE ROOM would work with you on this typical organizing dilemma:

Instead of stacking five years of old magazines in your spare bedroom, we'll explore how they help or hinder you now. If you choose to keep them, we can show you how to reorganize them to use as reference material or repurpose their contents saving what you enjoy about them. If you decide to recycle or donate them, we will even arrange to remove them for you.

By taking action, you'll be surprised how quickly you can alter your chaos into calm. It's a small change with a big impact.
