Back to School already?
Dear Candice,
I hope you’re having a nice summer!! School is still a month away (yay!), but it might be a good idea to kind-of-sort-of start thinking about it a little bit. ? One area that’s fun to think about is your kids’ memorabilia. Sometimes it can get overwhelming, I know, but setting up a system now will help make it more manageable when it starts pouring in! And I LOVE this organizing solution in the following article. SUPER easy to set up and maintain!! I hope you think so, too.

Do you know where all of your summer gear is?
Summertime is here, and you are going to be accessing the things in your garage more and more—bicycles, camping gear, gardening supplies, beach chairs….but the question is, can you get to, or even find, any of these things? Are you too embarrassed to even open the door? You are not alone! But wouldn’t it be great to just walk into your garage, grab your beach blanket, chairs and cooler, and simply go to the beach?? This is just one good reason to get control of your garage and get it organized.

Can a clean home improve your health?
May is the month for a number of health-related awareness events including National Mental Health, High Blood Pressure, and Better Sleep Month.

Clearing the clutter and living in a beautiful, organized home will reduce stress and allow you to focus on the things that are more important in your life. Let\’s take that first step together!
