Organizing and Interiors and Spring Wreaths - Keep Scrolling!


Home Organizing Workshop
Organizing is not about stuff; it is about time and manual labor.  We will discuss how we got here, the origins of clutter, and why we have so much stuff. We will explore the common misconceptions about what it means to be organized, the goal of productivity and the barriers that prevent us from getting organized. We will cover organizing strategies and methods and conclude with choosing the correct storage solutions and how to maintain your space. Additional topics include moving, downsizing, selling and dealing with sentimental items.  Ben Soreff is a Professional Organizer and co-owner of House to Home Organizing based in Ridgefield.
