As a professional organizer, I see the stress and overwhelm people are feeling in their homes because of their stuff. I’m always so happy to be a partner in helping my clients tackle it and come through the other side. I always want your home to be the place you can come back to at the end of the day, get into your comfy clothes and feel cozy, safe and happy.
Here are four things you can do to show your home some love all year long:
1) Declutter, organize and create systems. When you don’t have too much and you know where to put what you keep, it makes it easy to stay on top of your belongings and not have them cross over the line into stress.
2) Stay on top of maintenance. Whether you’re handy with tools or you need to hire it out, stay on top of repairs, leaks, moss, cracks, exterior paint, etc. Protect your home from damage and stop little things from becoming big (expensive) things. I’ve got a great resource if you need one.
3) Decorate. A home doesn’t have to just be practical, it can be pretty too. Get inspiration from Pinterest, HGTV or hire an interior decorator for help. I’ve got a great resource if you need one.
4) Curb appeal. The first thing you see when you come home is the outside. Make it inviting and appealing to enter and exit your home each day, from the yard to the front door.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Happy Valentine’s Day!
