Sharing your vision with the people you live with.
Two nights ago, I was giving a talk to the W.I. East End to a bunch of lovely receptive and enthusiastic ladies. So no wonder I was asked a lot of interesting questions. One really stuck with me: How do you do to make your husband (or whoever one shares ones home with) understand how important the state of your house is for you? I must admit that it must be because I still haven't found the perfect answer yet that it stayed with me. Actually there isn't a perfect answer, but


Decluttering and Organising with Children
I recently had the joy to work with a lovely young girl teaching her the rules and benefits of decluttering. She was at first a bit worried but quickly started to enjoy the process and in the end was thrilled with the results. It got me thinking that it would be a great topic for a blog. Children often drag their feet at the idea of having to tidy up their activitities, let alone their bedrooms. However it is also the best time for them to learn valuable tools that they will

How to make your room look bigger!
One sometime wish that one could push the walls of our beloved homes. As it is rarely possible, let me show you some ways that we help your room look bigger.

What state is your home in after days of family invasion? Do you find that, instead of finishing to tidy things away you have been shove them in dark corners or under the bed where would will happily leave them to be forgotten? Except that they won't b


On letting go.
In the de-cluttering side of my business, I work with people who often struggle to let go of their belongings. It is a process that I have since been reflecting on, as it covers a large scope of situations. Letting go of physical objects requires to let go on a much deeper level. It represents something different for everyone and always echoes within ourselves. So how exactly does it affect us? Researchers at Yale University recently identified that two areas in your brain as


On mindfulness
This is a blog that comes from the heart. This week, I am not going to share tips or informations but I am going to put myself out there and share with you what I believe in. Because as Alley Jean Aka the Visibility Queen says on Louise's Cartwright's podcast (check them out people!), there is no point in having a business in which you can't be your true self. So this is me people. I have recently reentered the world of high street retail by actually going out shopping for an


Why work with a decor and organisation consultant?
When you ask this question you often get two opposite reactions: - "Oh my! I SO need you in my house!" or - "But, surely, people don't need to pay someone to help them tidy up?!!!" Which means that, in the world of Organisers and decor consultant, there are two types of people. The one that already have a strong sense of organisation and, therefore are likely to not need our expertise. And the ones who lack a sense of organising/space/time/energy/ideas... and who really need
