Are you a collector?

This client has thousands of basketball and football cards, and hundreds of those are graded. The collection is AMAZING.

However, he can't find what he owns because all his cards were simply filed in boxes with no rhyme or reason.

This is a work in progress, but we're slowly getting there.

Do you have a collection for which you need organizing support? Give us a call; we're happy to help!

Continuing our remembrance of Dolly, here's a very good quote about the importance of reflection and perserverance.

This especially applies to entrepreneurship and small business ownership; it's not for the faint of heart and requires a constant need to learn.

Thanks, Dolly!

"I thank God for my failures. Maybe not in the moment, but after some reflection." — Dolly Parton

Save this carousel, and use it as a checklist the next time you’re in your kitchen!

Your pantry doesn’t need more storage solutions. It needs fewer things. Swipe through for 5 items cluttering your kitchen right now that you can confidently toss today. No guilt. No “what-ifs.”

Here’s the truth: an organized kitchen starts with decluttering, not organizing. Once you remove what doesn’t serve you, the organizing part is actually easy.

And if you want help tackling the whole pantry? You know where to find us. 👇

Because of a client's understanding and flexibility, I get to take off this Labor Day!

Funny story, I recently messed up my calendar and the client's selected day I was traveling. So, I offered a client a session today. His response: "No, let's find another day. No one wants to work on a holiday, especially not one celebrating our labor."

Touché, Mr. Client, touché.

My client moved into a new townhome, and this closet is literally the only storage space for 2.5 floors.

There's no linen closet, no laundry storage, nothing! I mean, seriously, what builder thought this was a good design?!

Anyway, she was asking this space to do TOO MUCH, so we had our work cut out for us. Here's what we did:

1) We created space in a bedroom closet to store extra towels and bed linens—that category, GONE

2) We moved housewares, e.g., batteries, candles, extension cords, to a nearby buffet that had a couple of underutilized drawers—that category, GONE

3) We simplified what's actually being stored in this space. It's now cleaning, overstock kitchen and bath products, laundry supplies, and medicine

From absolute chaos to functional storage!

What do you think about this before/after?!?!?

NEW BLOG POST: https://theorganizingboss.com/back-to-school-organizing/

Back-to-school season is here. And yes, it's exciting, but it can also be anxiety-inducing with new routines, new schedules, new chaos everywhere.

Here's what I've learned from working with families for years: the ones who survive back-to-school calmly aren't the naturally organized ones. They're the ones with SYSTEMS.

These 5 back-to-school organizing tips are game-changers for your family's year. Kitchen drawer for lunch stuff. Paper processing system. Shared calendar. Supply station. Organized entryway.

Simple systems. Real life. Actually maintainable.

The most common organizing mistake? Creating a system that’s too complicated!

You set up the “perfect” organizing system with multiple steps, labels, zones—but it takes too much time or you can’t remember the process, so you abandon it entirely.

That’s not a personal failure. That’s a system design problem.

The best organizing systems are simple. If it takes more than 30 seconds to put something away, it’s too difficult to maintain. Simplify it.

Your organizing should feel effortless, not like a chore. When your system is easy to use, it actually sticks!

This week we lost one of the best humans who has ever lived: Dolly Parton.

She was truly someone who loved EVERYONE, and someone who was loved by EVERYONE. She was a treasure.

In her honor, here's one of my favorite Dolly quotes; it's something I've thought about many times over the past 6 years. If I hadn't been brave enough to start my own business in 2020, I would still likely be working in a job I hate, tired of the daily monotony that is office life.

I am so thankful for where I'm at, both professional and personally.

Thank you, Dolly, for inspiring so many people around the world! You will be truly missed.

"You'll never do a whole lot unless you're brave enough to try." — Dolly Parton

Jessalyn showing us some client love!

I know I sound like a broken record, but this is exactly why we do what we do. We get to help people, and we get to have fun while doing it!

Not everyone can say they love their job, so I am incredibly grateful that I've found something that fulfills me and also helps people live calmer, less stressed lives.

"Working with Blake and his team was an absolute pleasure. We were in the middle of a basement renovation and needed help transitioning our two kids' rooms to better fit their ages and interests (no small task with all the furniture shuffling involved!). Blake was efficient, kind, and made the whole process incredibly easy. Our kids love their "new" rooms!" — Jessalyn K., Arlington, VA
