“Simplicity is not about deprivation. Simplicity is about greater appreciation for the things that really matter.”
WHAT IS THE PROCESS?
The process is an efficient and effective one. We'll begin with a free initial phone consultation to discuss the basics of your situation and project.
DECLUTTERING/ORGANIZING
When you're ready, we'll schedule our first appointment at your home, office, or storage unit.
Our first organizing session starts with a tour of your space and involves a lot of questions about your goals, visual style, what has worked and not worked for you in the past.
Then we get to putting your space in order! We can work side by side the entire time, or I can work on my own with intermittent input from you.
My professional experience, aesthetic sense, and positive attitude keep the process on track, while your involvement ensures that the systems we implement are suited to your own needs, habits, and preferences.
HOME STAGING CONSULTATIONS
When ready, we’ll schedule the necessary appointments at your home to be sold or rented. You’ll have already let me know if you plan to rent furniture or use your own. I can also help with decluttering in advance if needed.
Our first session starts with a tour of your home. I will assess what needs to be done and work with you to create an action plan for you to execute. The consultation will include everything from guidance on home decor and furniture arrangement to recommendations on home improvements like painting or repairing noticeable design elements of your home.
If using your own furniture, this is a cost-effective way to stage your own home using my organizing and design expertise. If renting furniture, I can work with the rental company to make sure everything is arranged in a way that sets the stage for your potential buyers/renters to envision themselves living in your home.
The second session is a follow-up visit to see that everything we’ve discussed has been put into effect and looks great. We can also use this time to make any necessary changes together.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?
DECLUTTERING/ORGANIZING - We book by the session with a minimum of four hours. While each client’s situation is unique:
Four hours can be enough to complete a small project, such as a small to medium size closet or pantry.
Larger projects are better suited to multiple sessions of four to six hours each.
Sessions of up to eight hours are recommended in time-sensitive situations such as moves.
The final 10 minutes of each session are dedicated to reviewing our progress, collecting payment, and setting a follow-up.
HOME STAGING - Sessions are booked based on the size of your home.
I offer 4 hour sessions for small to medium size homes and 6 to 8 hour sessions for larger ones. The sessions are scheduled for 2 different days.
Any time spent over the sessions booked will be charged an hourly rate.
