Happy weekend!! If you had a stressful or long week, I'm sure you're looking forward to relaxing with friends and family (and maybe escaping this heat!) As we start our well-deserved time off, let's also take the time to think about some of the clutter that's getting in between us and our goals, whether the goal is in relation to our homes, our jobs, or our personal lives. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Ask yourself these questions: what clutter are you having to sidestep every day? What's a way you can get rid of these obstacles that will benefit you and possibly others? What else can you do with all aspects of your life that will bring more joy? If some of the answers lie in freeing your home of clutter, don't hesitate to reach out. I'd love to help you, and so would Jane, my new team member (and currently we're offering 20% off sessions with Jane 👀)! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #simplymavenhaven #choosejoy #mykonmari #konmari #konmariconsultant #konmarimethod #declutter #declutteryourlife #sparkjoy #thelifechangingmagicoftidyingup #tidy #tidyingup #tidyhome #tidying #tidyhouse #professionalorganizer #homeorganization #homeorganizing #homeorganizer #TUWMK #tidyingupwithmariekondo #mariekondo #clutterfree
They key to an organized silverware drawer is a good silverware holder! Some holders don't have enough slots for all of the varying sides, don't have slots big enough or small enough, or just don't accommodate your needs. For such an essential part of your kitchen, it's important that you have the right one!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This weekend, check and see if your silverware is having their organizational needs met! You can find this particular one, if it seems to meet your needs, in the liketoknow.it app, along with many others! While you're looking, check and make sure your other items are in storage containers that fit their unique needs! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you would like help in this process, or just a second opinion on some of your storage solutions, don't hesitate to book a consultation! I'd love to help 😊 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #kitchenorganization #getorganized #organizing #tidyingup #konmari #homeorganization #konmarimethod #kitcheninspo #kitchenrenovation #organizedkitchen #mariekondo #organizingtips #organizedlife #organizedhome #organizingideas #organization #organized #gettingorganized #thingsorganizedneatly #beorganized #organizer #organize #organizers #organizedmom #tidy #tidyhouse #clutterfree #organizeit #rsorganizing #sparkjoy
Marie Kondo emphasizes that folding your clothes isn't just about saving storage space, but also about showing your clothes your love and appreciation for everything they provide for you. With that being said, the storage saving is a nice bonus😂 Being able to keep your kid's clothes neat, organized, and compact makes it easier for you, and for them, especially as they begin to gain independence! And as I've mentioned before, being able to set the example for your kids on how to fold and care for your clothes is invaluable.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This style of folding has been such a lifesaver, and once you get in the habit you never want to go back! I'd love to walk you through the process, both with your clothes and your children's clothes! Reach out for a consultation; summer is booking fast! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #simplymavenhaven #choosejoy #mykonmari #konmari #konmariconsultant #konmarimethod #declutter #declutteryourlife #sparkjoy #thelifechangingmagicoftidyingup #tidy #tidyingup #tidyhome #tidying #tidyhouse #professionalorganizer #homeorganization #homeorganizing #homeorganizer #TUWMK #tidyingupwithmariekondo #mariekondo #clutterfree
Who else worries about how to keep their kids toys tidy?? It can seem tough, especially when it comes to teaching kids to do some of the tidying themselves. But if you are always a constant example, your kids will start to pick up the habits, and find joy in keeping their favorite items in a safe place! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What are some methods you've found that work for you and your kids? Do you use shelves like us, or do you use larger bins? Let me know!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For those of you interested in getting started, don't hesitate to reach out or to book a consultation! I'd love to work with you! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #simplymavenhaven #choosejoy #mykonmari #konmari #konmariconsultant #konmarimethod #declutter #declutteryourlife #sparkjoy #thelifechangingmagicoftidyingup #tidy #tidyingup #tidyhome #tidying #tidyhouse #professionalorganizer #homeorganization #homeorganizing #homeorganizer #TUWMK #tidyingupwithmariekondo #mariekondo #clutterfree #tidykids
Some of y'all might be thinking of all of the laundry you totally meant to get done over the weekend. Trust me, there's no shame in that, we've all been there 😂 Something that makes laundry easier is to go ahead and fold as you take the clothes out of the dryer, instead of just tossing them into the basket. Yes, even the underwear. When you take care of the clothes you love, it not only saves you time, but it ensures that these items last sooooo much longer! And that should not only bring you joy, but also bring your wallet some joy!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I'd love to start working with you! My summer consultations are filling up quickly, so make sure to reach out soon 😊 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #simplymavenhaven #choosejoy #mykonmari #konmari #konmariconsultant #konmarimethod #declutter #declutteryourlife #sparkjoy #thelifechangingmagicoftidyingup #tidy #tidyingup #tidyhome #tidying #tidyhouse #professionalorganizer #homeorganization #homeorganizing #homeorganizer #TUWMK #tidyingupwithmariekondo #mariekondo #clutterfree
Simply Maven is growing ya'll! (AND PSSST! DEAL ALERT IF YOU READ TO THE END ;)) I am THRILLED to announce that my dear friend, colleague, and soon to be partner, Jane McCullough, is joining the Simply Maven team. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Jane and I have know each other for almost 10 years! We met @definebody when we were both going through training together to be instructors back in 2010. Since then, we have worked side by side to encourage and guide others through their health and wellness journeys. Jane was my first client when I was working towards becoming a KonMari consultant myself in 2017 and, two years later, she joined me in NYC at the KonMari Consultant Conference to begin her own journey to becoming a consultant as well. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I could go ON AND ON about how fabulous this woman is ya'll. Seriously. If you know her, you know that her grace, kindness, and strength is OFF. THE. CHARTS. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ My goal for Simply Maven is to truly help as many people possible to transform their stressful environments into calming sanctuaries, and I am so glad to now have an extra pair of hands in this mission. Jane has already begun working with clients and is doing an amazing job!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Book with her this summer to receive 20% off services while Jane completed her KonMari training -- link to do so is in OUR bio!
We've talked about pantries a lot recently, so I thought I'd use this quote from Marie Kondo to help: “The point in deciding specific places to keep things is to designate a spot for every thing.” When your pantry is organized with baskets, containers, and any other system you can think of, it becomes a much more efficient space! Designating certain parts of your pantry for each set of items makes life soooooo much easier! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I'd love to help you begin the process of getting your pantry to be the most efficient space it can be! Summer consultations are booking up fast, so make sure to reach out soon! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #kitchenorganization #getorganized #organizing #tidyingup #konmari #homeorganization #konmarimethod #kitcheninspo #kitchenrenovation #organizedkitchen #mariekondo #organizingtips #organizedlife #organizedhome #organizingideas #organization #organized #gettingorganized #thingsorganizedneatly #beorganized #organizer #organize #organizers #organizedmom #tidy #tidyhouse #clutterfree #organizeit #rsorganizing #sparkjoy
As we start the weekend, let's take the time to be grateful for all of the steps we made this week, big or small, towards reaching any goal we have, big or small. The great thing about the KonMari method is its ability to truly bring peace and happiness into one of the most important aspects of our lives: our home. When our home is tidy and stress-free, a huge load is lifted. Another great thing about the KonMari method is your ability to apply its teachings to all aspects of your life. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Always choose joy, both inside the home and outside. Choosing joy allows us to make those steps towards our goals, and to becoming our best selves!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What are some of the goals you all have right now, big or small? What steps did you take this week that took you closer to reaching these goals? If there's anyway you think I can help, don't be afraid to reach out! I'd love to work with you! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #inspiremyinstagram #claimyourpower #powerandpurpose #dailylove #healthyliving #followyourbliss #useyourgifts #simplymavenhaven #choosejoy #mykonmari #konmari #konmariconsultant #konmarimethod #declutter #declutteryourlife #sparkjoy #thelifechangingmagicoftidyingup #tidy #tidyingup #tidyhome #tidying #tidyhouse #professionalorganizer #homeorganization #homeorganizing #homeorganizer #TUWMK #tidyingupwithmariekondo #mariekondo #clutterfree
Who said folding had to be a chore?? As Marie Kondo says in her book, "The act of folding is far more than making clothes compact for storage. It is an act of caring, an expression of love and appreciation for the way these clothes support your lifestyle." I've definitely found this to be true with my own clothes/towels/linens, and I love seeing clients start to see this as well! Sure, the compactness of the items is a great benefit as well, but it really is about that feeling of joy you get from taking care of the items that you love and appreciate.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Folding may not seem super exciting now, but I'd love to walk you through the process! My summer appointments are booking up fast, so reach out soon! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #simplymavenhaven #choosejoy #mykonmari #konmari #konmariconsultant #konmarimethod #declutter #declutteryourlife #sparkjoy #thelifechangingmagicoftidyingup #tidy #tidyingup #tidyhome #tidying #tidyhouse #professionalorganizer #homeorganization #homeorganizing #homeorganizer #TUWMK #tidyingupwithmariekondo #mariekondo #clutterfree
Announcement! I am currently celebrating being accepting into the KonMari Speakers Circle! Man oh man -- I couldn't be more thrilled. The more I reflect on my purpose here on this earth, the more I come to the realization that I love love love to educate. I'm sure it stems from my parents, both high school teachers. The opportunity to spread knowledge lights me up -- it's why I love(d) my time at DEFINE body and mind, and its a huge part of why I love working with clients to declutter and organize. Yes, I love a pretty pantry -- but it's the a-ha moments and the truth bombs that really get me excited :) To everyone who supports me and gives me a platform to speak -- THANK YOU! To everyone who has given me feedback, or has been a part of my journey in honing my presentation skills -- THANK YOU! To all the people who are my support in helping me live my dreams (babysitters, class subs, and sounding boards) thank you, thank you, thank you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ My friends -- what lights you up?! What is holding you back from going after it with a fierce passion? If it's clutter, let me tell you -- you can fix that. You just give me a call ok? ❤️My one-on-one sessions are booking up fast, AND I am working on something exciting to be able to help more of you faster. Hang tight boos! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #simplymavenhaven #choosejoy #mykonmari #konmari #konmariconsultant #konmarimethod #declutter #declutteryourlife #sparkjoy #thelifechangingmagicoftidyingup #tidy #tidyingup #tidyhome #tidying #tidyhouse #professionalorganizer #homeorganization #homeorganizing #homeorganizer #TUWMK #tidyingupwithmariekondo #mariekondo #clutterfree
