Welcome to the Decluttering Diaries, where we share our adventures in helping neurodivergent families and busy professionals transform chaos into calm. As professional organizers based on the Eastside of Seattle, we specialize in minimizing clutter and creating functional systems that stand the test of time. Our approach is non-judgmental, inclusive, and, dare we say, a bit badass when it comes to "kicking the klutter."
In our quest to conquer clutter, we've journeyed through a myriad of cities, from the serene streets of Bothell to the bustling neighborhoods of Bellevue, and beyond. Along the way, we've witnessed the transformative power of organization in places like Mill Creek, Kirkland, Redmond, Cottage Lake, and Shoreline. Whether we're in the heart of Seattle or the outskirts of Marysville, our mission remains the same:
to help you reclaim your space and your sanity.
Here are a few tips from our decluttering arsenal that you can implement starting today:
1. Don't Put It Down, Put It Away: One of the simplest yet most effective mantras of organization. Instead of leaving items strewn about, take a moment to put them back in their designated homes. It's a small action that yields big results in maintaining order. (I often have to fight my brain, STILL. It will try to convince me that it will take too long or that its more efficient to just pile it up and sort it later. But I have come to realize that you can overcome those thoughts by just doing it and then the proof is in the pudding.)
2. Creating Homes for Things Gives You Boundaries: Every item in your home should have a designated place where it belongs. By assigning specific homes for your belongings, you establish boundaries that prevent clutter from creeping back into your space. Remember, clutter attracts clutter.
3. Embrace Micro-Sucks for Future You: It may seem tedious, but tasks like making your bed each morning or tidying up your car after each use are tiny investments in your future peace of mind. Embrace these micro-sucks as acts of self-care that benefit your future self.
So, whether you're in need of a decluttering intervention in Kirkland or seeking organization enlightenment in Edmonds, know that we're here to support you every step of the way.
