The Tidy Nanny by Macy Kerrigan

New Client Monday! 😍

Today I helped a sweet family get settled into their new kitchen!

After wiping out each cabinet, I unpacked every kitchen box and found a home for each item. The cabinet space was tiny but mighty, so I had to get creative to make everything functional and easy to access.

I made sure the small appliances in the lazy Susan were not too heavy for the shelves. I left cabinet space for more baby bottles as they prepare to welcome their second child. Less-used items went on the highest shelves. To maximize the space, I utilized the deep pantry for Tupperware and pots and pans. I intentionally left space in the lazy Susan for a few everyday pots or pans they may want to keep within reach of the stove.

Organization is not just fitting everything in—it’s about making intentional decisions that will make day-to-day life easier.

This project did not include any container organization—but boy, I would love to perfect the pantry and drawers with some later! 😍

This project took 6 hours at $75/hour.

This week’s closet organization!

The toy closet was a doozy. I removed each board game and puzzle from its box and swapped them for labeled Ziploc bags. Holy space saver! 😍

I decided to eliminate the XL totes to avoid recreating dumping zones. The truck parking may still get messy, but it’s a very easy fix. It took several hours to clear the floor and sort through the totes in this closet. I definitely did not want to have to come back and do it all over again 🤪

While I LOVE the small green latch bins over the transparent green shallow ones, I strategically chose the shallow bins for categories that won’t grow, like track sets and Jenga. This helps keep categories from getting easily mixed together. The slightly larger latch totes were reserved for categories with room to grow, like Hot Wheels, characters, dinosaurs, etc.

I truly try my best to be intentional with my design, personalizing each space to the specific needs of each home 🥰

Between 2 days and 15 hours, this full-scale beauty inventory organization project is complete 🥹😍✨

Four years ago, I connected with a local mama and content creator through babysitting services. This week, we reconnected for my largest, longest organization project to date. I’m so grateful she trusted me with this process.

This office/beauty room required a highly functional, structured system design due to the massive volume of products and constant influx of cosmetics. The final setup prioritizes accessibility, clear categorization, and long-term maintainability within the existing furniture layout.

Attention to detail was key in this project. Products were oriented so brand names were not visible from the front, supporting my client’s content creation. Each product within every drawer was also placed consistently, making it easier to locate specific shades and matches.

The result is a streamlined, category-based system designed to support both daily use and future product intake while maintaining visual clarity and order. Every drawer, bin, and category was intentionally labeled to make the system easy to navigate, maintain, and reset over time.

While aesthetics always play a role in my work, the priority is creating systems that actually function in real life—and continue to work long term.

Hoping I nailed this one 💪🏻

HOW CUTE IS TODAY’S PROJECT?! 💖

If only I had taken before photos of this lucky, little girl’s Barbie collection!

Today I purged, sorted, contained and labeled a 6 year old’s playroom and bedroom. This project included separating dolls, clothing, accessories, furniture animals, vehicles, action figures, art supplies and NERF into labeled bins that are easy for her to clean up.

I am obsessed with the storage solutions I found for this project. The white baskets were affordable alternatives to wicker. They are such great quality, and won’t shed like wicker does. I’m obsessed with the colorful bins. This piece of furniture was the most bizarre size—likely designed to ensure the storage solutions were purchased directly from them. Not to worry, I found the best pieces to work for this little family!

SOMEONE PINCH ME! 😍

Huge THANK YOU to another new client for trusting me to organize her entire home! So far we’ve tackled the pantry, dry bar, mudroom, fridge/freezer, and master bathroom. I am OBSESSED with every outcome.

I measured every space and ordered fit-to-size solutions. The fruit/veg savers are my new favorite. I couldn’t resist some color coordination 🍓🧡🍊🥝🍇

The biggest transformations are definitely the pantry/dry bar and the massive mudroom 🤩 The functionality is a total game changer! I always make sure my clients are comfortable maintaining the systems we put in place so everything stays functional long-term.

Every time I create these before & after photos, I am in disbelief that this is my work and my business. I am sooo grateful for everyone who trusts me to bring functionality, organization and a sense of calm into their homes. I genuinely love what I do! 💖

EEEK! I’m so tickled with this pantry organization! 😍

Today’s project included a pantry and a dry bar, which acts as an extension of the pantry. Last week I measured the spaces and ordered containers fit to size. Today I pulled everything out from both spaces and sorted it into categories. Then I created zones, transferred items, and arranged the bins in each space to make the most sense for this family.

The dry bar became mom and dad’s space, with each parent having a section for their snacks, coffee/tea, and baking needs. I moved all the kid’s snacks to the bottom of the pantry so they can reach them and easily prep their lunches. Finally, I added temporary labels to a few bins so mom and dad can get used to returning items to their proper homes. Full labeling wasn’t necessary since the spaces are so visible and functional.

I love seeing a space transform into something that looks gorgeous and works perfectly for everyday life.

My client said, “I don’t want to close the pantry doors because I am loving looking at it!” 🥹
