1} I have more followers on Pinterest than Twitter or Facebook, but spend the least amount of time “pinning” photos.

2} I spend 30 – 60 minutes a day on my own home maintenance. I never waste time watching commercials.

3} No two days are the same. My schedule is not consistent.

4} I’m most productive at night. 

5} I update my calendar on a daily basis so I never overschedule, but I maximize each day.

6} I’ve learned when to say no.

7} My husband says I need to turn off my “on switch” once in awhile, but I never really do.

8} I’m not as spontaneous as I should be.

9} Sometimes client ideas come from my home. Sometimes I apply client ideas to my own home.

10} My favorite color is navy blue, but it’s not the color reflected in my own home.

11} I love vintage and industrial design, but only a portion of my home reflects it.

12} I have a lot of resources because I work with a lot of people. One client refers to me as a yellow page book. Another calls me the restaurant guru.

13} I love shopping for containers.

14} Organizing is not my only passion. I love travel, adventure, geocaching, photography, design, crafting, cooking, hiking, biking, drawing, writing and reading. Before all else is my family.

1} Install lower hanging bars. This allows children to reach their own clothing.

2} Install bins or lidless baskets. Bins make it easy for children to put away and grab socks, underwear, PJs, swimsuits, accessories and shoes.

3} Catagorize. Clothing dividers are optional.

4} Rainbow color order. Children learn their colors in preschool. By color coding clothes, it is quicker to match and make outfits.

5} One laundry basket. Keeping it small will force you to do laundry more often. 

6} One out-grown basket. Children out-grow clothing and shoes quickly. A bin will allow you to store those items until you are ready to sell or donate them.

7} Hooks. Hooks make hanging anything quicker. Mount around shoulder level.

1} Make use of space under the bed.  Lidless containers at your child’s level will allow him/her to easily put items away. You are also teaching responsibility and respect for things in the process.

2} Keep floor space open by using slender furniture and going vertical with storage.

3}  Limit bedding to a fitted sheet and comforter. Your child will be able to make their own bed easier {especially with school back in session!}.

4} Avoid storing toys in the bedroom unless you lack space elsewhere.
