Home Maintenance Calendar
Home Maintenance Calendar

Hey gang! I wanted to share a tip for organizing your home maintenance needs - rather than just waiting for your favorite service providers to keep you in check or WORSE, coming home to appliances that have decided to fall apart in one way or another. 

Something that has helped us stay organized is creating a "Home Maintenance" calendar in Google that can be shared between me and the Baer.  When working with families, I always recommend creating a calendar for each family member's schedule (and the home that keeps your family safe is no exception) - it's quick, color-coded and can be turned on/off depending on what all you want to view on a particular day.

Just Get Started!

One of the benefits of working with a professional organizer is the ability to kick-start a project into gear. My approach when working with clients is to just get started.

Here are a few tips to make the process easier:

1. VISUALIZE how you want the space to look once it has been cleared of unwanted items – maybe you’ll treat yourself to a candle, turn on your favorite tunes (Leon Bridges is top of my list right now) and relax with a book. Maybe not, but do think of the sanctuary that you deserve your home to be. What does that space look like? How will you use it? Breathe easy knowing you are just a few hours away from this reality.

Top 5 Tips for Selling on Poshmark

Over the last several years, I’ve embraced buying secondhand – it’s also been a great resource to sell items so they can be given a second (or third) life. As we embrace Fall, now is the perfect time to sift through your closet and see if any of your summer items should be retired.

This can be especially difficult for items that you haven’t really worn - maybe you got a great deal, maybe you brought it home and it didn’t go with anything in your closet, or you discovered it simply isn’t your style.

One way to make this a bit easier is by reselling items. For me, Poshmark has been an extremely easy way to earn a little cash while turning my wardrobe into a place where everything is loved. Here are my top 5 Tips for selling on Poshmark:
