Spring forward

March is the perfect time to refresh your closet.

Think about it, a well-organized closet will save you time, $$, & stress!

1. Sort: Start by taking everything out of your closet.
Go through each item
Ask yourself: Have I worn this____ in the last year?
Does it fit?
Do I feel good when I wear it?
If not, it’s gotta go!
Donate or sell anything you no longer need or want.

2. Categorize: Once you have your pared-down selection of
clothing, group like with like, such as shirts with shirts.
Easier to find; easier to put back.

3. Maximize space, including shelves, vertical wall space,
hanging space & floor space.
Two examples:
This rod by Umbra can double your hanging space,
and these Bamboo shoe racks are sustainable space savers.

4. Invest in quality hangers. Using high-quality hangers not
only looks better, but also helps your wardrobe.
We recommend using wooden or velvet hangers for a
cohesive & functional look.

5. Label! Put labels on baskets, bins, and even inside drawers!
When it comes to closet maintenance, it’s easy to find what
you need, when you need it!

New Leaf Organizing knows that a well-organized closet has a big impact on your daily life.

Let NLO help you create a functional & beautiful oasis!

Happy Spring!

Testimonials

Shopping is a very different experience for me now. I no longer waste money on filling my home with stuff. If I buy a "want" rather than a "need", I release enough "haves" to allow plenty of space for the new "want".

She is a master at setting up systems for managing paper flow. Louisa goes the extra mile and is willing to do what it takes to see a project completed.

I needed a listing decluttered, organized, and staged. Louisa Gravelle did a wonderful job. She created beauty out of chaos. The listing received multiple offers and sold for well over its asking price within a week of being on the market.

I am so grateful for your assisting my friend Susie who has postponed organizing her closets for many years. Her world is no doubt much improved and I know that her travels this summer will be more carefree knowing that a better organized life awaits her as she continues to work with you.
