“One color is never alone. Color needs company.” - Raw Color

Just like color, items need company too.

🤔An item alone, dumped with little intention, in a random spot- is sure to create clutter.

😍Instead- create a grouping of like items, place them with thought/love, ( hit of color 🌈), and voila! Organized items at their finest!

AND...If you're a color enthusiast (like moi), check out - a fun store curated with colourful treats from local artists. 🧡💛💚💙

Fun fact color has many benefits:
It's bold, playful and fun.
It's deeply emotional and impactful.
It Influences our moods, perceptions and experiences

Is it really the end of August, or are you 'julyin' to me! 😉

Despite the lack of posting- AUGUST has been packed with meaningful projects and personal goals.

Month in review:
📸 #1 - Yes...on occasion, and only when necessary, do I suggest purchasing tools to organize items.

🏠 #2- Functional spaces can be fabulous! Helping a client move into their new home.

👚 #3-Had the pleasure of working in a few closets this summer- ❤️ helping clients organize their wardrobe.

🚤 #4- Can I call this work-commuting by boat? I hope so b/c it's way more fun than driving.

😍 #5- Hooks...a great friend. You can never have enough! Solved many storage issues at this lake font cottage.

🚴‍♀ #6- A year after a bike accident that broke her hip- my mom and I had the pleasure of racing a triathlon together again!

August you flew by! I enjoyed every minute of you.

Another fun project thanks to this amazing friend!

No matter the space, even a rustic cabin perched up high on a rock, deserves to be functional and drizzled with some cuteness. 💕

Without acquiring a SINGLE new thing (a few items donated), we transformed the space to be worthy of it’s spectacular view!

✔Moved the kitchen from being squished against a wall.(📸 #2) - to having the best view in the house! (📸 #3) 😍
✔Added hooks- of course we added hooks! 😉
✔And ....

More to share in stories.... stay tuned!

I came up with several captions for this, then thought... no more needs to be said. Love it! 🤍🖤

Be the curator of your home and don’t ever give up! Even if you choose to expand your family- you and your baby deserve space + time - NOT stuff!

Despite what our hyper - consumerist culture promotes- babies don't need much stuff. And even less toys!

Research continues to show that in fact what is best for babies cannot be bought!
👶Talk to your baby
👩‍🍼Cuddle her, tickle him
🎶Sing and play

The “magic” is found in the love you have for your child, not in the STUFF! ✨

As someone who tries to live a low waste, less stuff lifestyle, it won’t surprise you that I’m a cheerleader for borrowing + sharing.

So when my daughter was adamant on baking .5 a birthday cake, instead of running out to buy cake pans, it only made sense to borrow.

Our modern ‘this-is-mine’ culture has taken us away from what seems like such practical common sense - Sharing!

🛒It reduces demand for new items.
🏠Benefits your space, limits an abundance of stuff.
♻️Environmentally friendly.
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦Connects us with our neighbours and friends.

Next time you need something, before you head to the store, ask yourself, is it possible to borrow it instead?

P.s return borrowed item in a timely manner and be thankful.✨
Thank you 🤗

Selling a home can be one of the most stressful life events that you face.

If you watch the latest DIY show, you might think staging a home to sell, requires lots of money, ripping down a wall or two, and bringing in all new flooring, furniture and decor. ��It doesn’t have to be like that!��Did you know, “De-Cluttering” is one of the top suggestions agents advise? ��🏠You want your home to look as spacious as possible.
🧺The fewer things you have inside, the bigger your home will look and feel.
👏And…guess what?… the less you have to move!

What do you do with your KID’S ART WORK? 🎨

I bet you can guess what I do?
Yup- you got it... I chuck most of it! 😂

I’m realizing that isn’t the case for all parents.
Kids’ artwork is one of the #1 areas my clients struggle with. "It’s so cute! It’s so sentimental! How can I get rid of it?".

But…
Nobody wants 10 boxes stuffed somewhere forever.

It’s nearing the end of school and that means… artwork is about to come home in one giant paper-and-glitter heap.

So here are my top 3 tips:
📸Take a picture of it- allows you to preserve it forever.
🧒Take a picture of your child with the artwork. After all the precious part is the child who made it.
🖼My personal favourite- find a way to display the most meaningful pieces in your home- and enjoy everyday!

The good news is that memories don’t live inside of your stuff – they exist in your brain and in your heart. 💙

Photo #2- sometimes easier said than done to get a photo of the artists! 😉

Oh anxiety--you are one of the most common emotional pain points I see and feel in homes…and it’s not just us adults!

As I organize kids’s play areas, I'm reminded that kids can feel overwhelmed and anxious by stuff as well.

📋Research has shown - "when there are too many choices available for children, it creates undue anxiety."
👩‍👦Just like adults, kids actually benefit and thrive in simplified spaces too!
🧸Streamlining toys, creates a living space that fosters creativity, connection, and quality play time.

The goal is to empower our kiddos, not burden them with all that...you know... S T U F F. 😊

In the quest for a well-organized home, have you ever considered taking inspiration from retailing practices?

Taking cues from your favourite shop can be surprising effective.

Just like in a store, the following can transform your home too:
✔️Arrange ‘like with like’ items.
✔️Bring order - to all the many different items.
✔️Create an easy flow to find what you need.
✔️Add a sense of fun that reflects your personal style, yet visually pleasing.

Enjoy shopping your pantry, closet, garage, and all your mini shops in your home! 🛒

P.s there is no magic wand for retailers either…just time and love. 🪄🧡

To all the mothers out there...enjoy being ‘non- perfect’& be proud of being the best mom you can be.

Happy Mother's Day to all! 💕

Anyone can quickly stuff their items into a closet or drawer (out of sight) and appear to be organized!

The objective of getting organized isn’t to hide everything you own, and it’s certainly more than expensive matching bins + perfectly coiled cords.

Home organization is about creating systems to manage all your belongings.

What makes an effective system?
👀Convenience- create a system that caters to your habit (where you naturally place, and look for items).
🏠Assign homes - 'like with like' items contained together. If an items doesn't belong, find it's proper home.
♻️Discard Excess- buried items are a culprit for frustration, and failed systems.

Keeping yourself sane, stress-free, and enjoying your home is absolutely worth!✨
