Your most valuable real estate spaces

Over the next few weeks, we are going to focus on cleaning and de-cluttering specific areas of your home.

I am a firm believer that certain areas of your home should be considered and treated as extremely "valuable real estate." Therefore, only the most valuable and useful items can afford to pay the premium to "live" there.

We are going to de-clutter and clean different spaces from top to bottom. It is after all spring! I will show you my methods for doing it fast and effectively. I can promise you that if you work with me, your spaces will be reclaimed with a crisp, fresh feel and you will want to show them off.

Challenge for today...get three boxes labeled (GARBAGE, KEEP, DONATE) ready for Monday!

Have a nice weekend and Happy Mother's Day!

Daily Essentials-Make your bed

Don't overwhelm yourself with trying to clean your house all at once. It is a process that takes time and lot of practice, but just remember that it is possible.

There is something that you can start today that will take just a few minutes of your time and I promise you that it will make a major difference in your journey to achieve a clean home. The tip? Something that I am sure we have all heard since we were kids...just make your bed. I don't think there was a day in my childhood that went by without my mom asking me to make my bed. It was something that I quickly realized made a huge difference in how my room looked. If your bed is made, somehow your room will look cleaner.


Your bedroom should be a refuge. It needs to be an escape from the stress and chaos of the day. And believe it or not, it is one of the few spaces in your home that can easily be pulled together with just a little effort. Making the bed is one of the quickest and easiest steps to the start of an orderly home. I loved these inspiring beds found from Pottery Barn(above)and Restoration Hardware(below).



My challenge to you is to make your bed as soon as you get out of it. Try it for a week and you will see that those few minutes each day will make a big difference.
