Happy GO Month or Get Organized Month!

Looking forward to our NAPO Connecticut meeting tomorrow where we will celebrate GO Month 2024. Each year, it’s a tradition for our members to collect donations for an important organization. This year at NAPO-CT we collected coats, towels and baby diapers for IRIS - Integrated Refugee & Immigrant Services along with hats, mittens and scarves for The Light House.

We are looking forward to getting these items into the hands of those that need them. 💕

This is just what one busy professional organizer 🐝 collected. I can’t wait to see what all our members can do!! Together we are better!!

Don’t miss my upcoming class if you have a move in your future. Gain great decluttering tips, simple staging strategies, and ideas to keep your move manageable.

In celebration of GO! Month (Get Organized Month!), NAPO Connecticut members have spent the month doing a coat drive to benefit our communities. I’m happy to report I was able to donate a total of 41 coats plus 8 snow pants to local charities.

Happy Halloween from the Organized Hive! Anyone else find that sorting the candy “like with like” afterwards is almost as much fun as the trick or treating?

Underwear in one of the most under-donated and most needed item of clothing. No one should be without this daily necessity.

Received these beautiful flowers from my professional association, NAPO Connecticut. So honored to be president for this fantastic group and thankful for all my fellow organizers!

When you’re self-employed, it means the world to find your people!

I rarely post before and after photos. I dive right into a project and completely forget to capture in pictures the magic that is organizing.

At the end of our session today, the client said “We should have taken pictures!” She insisted I at least take an after shot. So here is her lovely entry hallway after a great session of emptying, sorting, editing, and organizing. 3 orderly closets + 1 tidy entry = a happy client.
