🏡 What to Do When Everything Feels Like a Treasure

Does decision-making come easily to you?
For many of us, it feels simpler to call every possession a “treasure” than to part with it.
But what can you do when everything seems to hold value?

The first step is understanding that not every item can be a treasure.
We need a thoughtful process to separate what truly matters from what simply takes up space.

✨ When we pause and reflect on what lasts forever, our perspective shifts.
The things of this world are temporary — and recognizing this can bring surprising clarity and peace.

“What we hold onto here, we won’t need where we’re headed next.”

Also, remember — the choices we avoid making today may become a burden for those we love tomorrow.
By taking action now, we free ourselves and those around us from future stress.

We all desire order in our lives, some of us more than others. Here are 10 areas you can get a handle on this fall. It’s all in the spirit of being proactive which allows you to save time and money.

2.   Coat closet

      Prepare for the change in weather

3.   Medicine Cabinet

      Get rid of expired items

      Stock up for allergy season

      Stock up on the cold/flu medications

4.  Bedroom closet

     Bring out the appropriate clothing for the changing weather-flannel pj’s, fuzzy slippers, sweaters, etc.

"Help! I'm drowning in here and very overwhelmed!", this is a common statement I hear from so many clients. For many of us a home office doesn't have to be a room all its own. It may be as simple as a space in the kitchen to a larger room devoted to being a home office. As an organizer, I generally see the dysfunctional home office. 

Why is the home office such a challenge????

-It's the perfect storm of paper...

So many categories of paper ending up in this one place creates the perfect storm!

-You may not be alone...

Your office space may be in a high traffic area allowing access to everyone in your house. That's alot of extra paper!

-May have more paper than space...

Sometimes these areas end up overwhelmed by the amount of paper and the limited amount of space! Is a purge in order???

-No system in place...

The method of piling paper on a desk is the only "organizing" there is! How do you find what you are looking for??

Creating a system that works for you is not as hard as...
