Pantry and kitchen refreshes are an ongoing need as lifestyle or dietary needs change and kids grow up.

If you’ve been living in your home for 5-10 years, and you’re struggling to reimagine your spaces, it might be time to call in a professional. Reach out on the Contact page, or DM to get started.

"As a nonbinary q***r person, I was happy to learn there was a LGBTQIA+ community group when I moved to Upper Arlington in 2022, and it didn't take me long to get involved. I'm thrilled to be a part of this growing, vibrant Rainbow UA community, and I'm excited to help present our annual Pride event and Teen Closet on June 28th this year, along with our year-round events and programming." - Tabi

* After three years and welcoming an additional child, these clients were ready for the family room’s kid art drawers to be refreshed.
* Younger sibling friendly items and common supplies were put in the bottom two drawers, and supplies with smaller parts or direct supervision needed were zoned to the top.
* As part of a longer session to prepare a few areas for guests, these drawers took just under 2 hours to declutter and organize.

Why are sentimental items hard to declutter?
The stories behind the items.

Organization Pending’s Downsizing Tips for Adult Children and Their Parents includes:
* home organizing concepts and questions you and your parents can ask to help think about their future space and their items,
* questions to help your parents start thinking about maximum potential downsizing,
* and quick tips for decluttering books and sentimental items.

How to declutter and organize sentimental items
* Declutter blurry photos, unimportant landscapes, duplicates, and photos of unknown people or pets.
* If you can’t write a caption for it, you can let it go.
* Look for timestamps or handwritten dates, writing the month/year on a sticky note, and start organizing!
* Working on a large project? Use envelopes instead of sticky notes for quick storage.
* Implement a sentimental container for each family member, living or deceased. Revisit these containers every 5-10 years, decluttering items that no longer hold meaning, and reincorporating favorites into your daily landscape.
* Schedule Nostalgia Navigator services, a collaboration of Organization Pending & Vintage Solutions: one-on-one support to gather & organize, then preserve your family’s memories through digitization.
