• These brothers love sand more than any toys! When we’re not visiting the beach in Malibu, the boys play for hours at a time in our backyard sandbox in Dallas! . We are saying yes to less (stuff) and more to experiences, outdoor time, and toy sharing with neighbors, instead of buying lots of new toys! . Recent studies show that children that have less toys, play with each toy longer. Makes sense right? . Here are a few ways to buy less and have less. A concept that is actually a privilege to have! . Use your local library to check out books, audio books, and puzzles. . Start a neighborhood toy swap! . Save left over packaging like egg cartons, tin cans (just tape the edges to keep smooth) and Amazon boxes. Kids love to stack and built with objects! And when you’re done, they are all recyclable! .

  • If your children are into dress-up, then here’s an idea for you! . I used a guest room closet to set up this area for my clients’ kids to have easy access to their favorite make-believe character costumes. . Bonus! There was still room on the closet shelf for other categories of family storage! . . . #weekendproject #organizedhome #organizedliving #dressup #organizedcloset #containyourself #thecontainerstore #kidspaces

  • Traveled with both boys solo to LA today and it went better than expected! If you caught my Stories, you would have seen me talking about packing light! . Packing light is access to travel freedom! We all got on the plane with a on carrying roller for the boys which Dean sat on while I rolled it, a @eaglecreek backpack for me, two mini backpacks for the kiddos and a booster seat! . Remember... Reduce what you think you need to pack. Simplify the way you pack by getting creative and making several outfits out of fewer items. And always carry on! . Happy travels my Weekend Getawayers! . . #packingtips #protips #organizedliving #travelmomma #professionalorganizers

  • We set up this area with my favorite glass containers, paired with bamboo turn tables and sea grass baskets for storage. . Matching containers like these are beautiful, but more important than things being perfect, is the way we respect and keep our food! When we know what we have in our pantries and cabinets, we can be mindful about not over buying and using up what we have! . Here are my 5 tips that anyone can use to organize their food storage area starting this week! . 1. Skip the chip clips and opt for using something cheaper and more beautiful (in my opinion) instead! Wooden clothes pins make the perfect chip clip! . 2. Reuse rinsed out pasta sauce and pickel jars as food storage containers for things like almonds and dried fruit. Then, make them look more uniform by added pretty matching labels to the front or the lid, depending on what side of the jar you see first! . 3. Shop for the space you have now, not the space you wish you had! If you’re saying you don’t have enough space, it’s time rethink how much you buy and how you can make what you have work for your needs. Sometime this means moving back stock items to a different location in your home! . 5. Think outside the box! Move things around. You will probably surprise yourself with creativity you didn’t think you had. When you make things look nice, you’re more likely to keep it up! . #organizeme #organizedpantry #pantrygoals #organizedhome #thecontainerstore #containyourself #bulksection #glasscontainers #pantryproject

  • Linen closets love order too! . Here’s our top tips for creating order out of chaos in your linen closet: . 1. Declutter so that you are not stuffing. That means you should work with the space you have and not save for the space you want. . 2. Use matching bins to organize by category. And then file fold within the bins for easier visibility. We did this here with decorative pillow cases and guest bathroom hand towels! . 3. Fold by sheet set so you can quickly grab and go to make a bed in a jiffy! . Like this post if you’d love our next post to be a fitted sheet folding video!❤️ . . . #Fittedsheets #organizedlinens #organizedhome #organizedliving #californiacasual #bohopillows

  • We are doing a free declutter challenge over on our #LivingOrganized Facebook Group! . Yesterday’s challenge was to declutter and organize your tea & coffee station, so naturally we decluttered our client’s teas too! . It’s amazing what can happen to the soul when just one drawer is reorganized! It’s like your inner voice pats you on the back and says “we’re back in business baby!” . When Lauren, one of our Dallas Organizational Experts showed me how these these 6 beautiful bamboo organizers fit perfectly in this drawer, it was like the heavens opened up and we both heard the sounds of harp music 🎶! .
