Lovely Stripes & Smart Organization for Fall!

As a new season approaches, many of us look forward to small changes around the house as we prepare to #cozyondown. As I type this, I just stepped out of my red rubber boots (it can be muddy at the fleamarket), and I’m wearing a very fall ensemble: red and navy plaid with jeans.

Plaid is such a fall thing…but my mind is on stripes right now…

How to Create a Small, Organized Entry

I don’t know about you, but when I feel overwhelmed in terms of where to begin cleaning or organizing our home, I like to start with the entry. What to do if yours is tiny and inefficient? This book addresses this and other key issues.

There are so many books about organizing! What makes The REAL SIMPLE Method different?

It’s all about creating small, simple habits that make a big impact on everyday life. It’s an organizing plan with your well-being and self-care in mind.

The REAL SIMPLE Method will help you think of your home in new ways, so that a bedroom chair isn’t just a dumping ground for morning outfit rejects—it’s a comfy place to sip coffee in the morning or settle in at the end of the day with a good book.
