Whether you’re gearing up for the spring selling season or just doing some spring-cleaning, it’s lovely to have a well-organized house. It’s aesthetically pleasing (and good feng shui) to reduce visual clutter. The first step is to declutter rooms, closets, cabinets and drawers, by simply getting rid of anything that is not used, needed, or of personal value. Consider donating to a local charity.



These days, there are so many beautiful options for storage containers -- such as woven fabric, metal or clear plastic. While some storage containers are meant for display, others are designed to use as internal organizers for closets, cabinets and drawers. As a professional staging consultant, I often recommend adding baskets / bins / containers to catch the smaller miscellaneous items and help to give an overall appearance of being neat and tidy. A well-organized home is not just more efficient for daily living, it can definitely help to give a house an edge for resale!
