Clutter Edit by Cort

Stress. It’s the idea that the less control you have over your circumstances, the more agitated you become.

Though not all stress is bad, if you do not have an escape, stress can become chronic and those stress hormones become toxic. In the world we live in, stress really is impossible to avoid. But we often underestimate the value of having somewhere to go where we can, if even for a moment, that allows our nervous system a reset.

That’s why I love what I do. I want to help you get started to have a home that takes away your stress, not add to it.

So, where in your home can you relax? Or even better, what in your home is holding you back from having that?

Have you ever heard the saying, “More money more problems”, well the same goes for clutter; More stuff more stress. Let me help you simplify your living space.

Today is a big day for me and my business. Today marks 1 year since I started this adventure with Clutter Edit.

This past year has been an incredible experience. I’ve learned, developed amazing relationships with clients, grown and can’t help but look forward to what the next year has in store.

Thank you to everyone who has supported, liked a post, followed my journey, and hired me. I am so unbelievably grateful.

In honour of Clutter Edit’s 1 year anniversary and hitting 500 followers, I will be posting a giveaway later today 🥳

For now, thank you times a million xo

Time flies when you’re having fun!

I have been in many homes and although my strategies can overcome most, it is always important to acknowledge that each person faces different challenges when trying to organize or declutter their space.

One commonality I have noticed is that unfortunately, these problems sometimes have the overwhelming power to discourage the most motivated person when they are left to figure it out on their own.

Though my job title is commonly “organizer”, a few other “hats” I wear are motivator, support person and planner. When someone finds it impossible to get organized and live in their home comfortably, I come in and provide that push of confidence and effort to let you see the light under all the household stressors.

People might think that “it will just get messy again”. Well, yes, just like anything in life, accountability will always play a part in the process. I talk through the organizational issues with you, but I also discuss what can be done to avoid getting back to the same state.

My main job is to make sure you don’t feel alone, and you don’t lose your ambition. It’s also important to remember that the outcome doesn’t have to be perfect or resemble a show you saw on Netflix (but we will try 😜). It’s going to make you feel good about what you’ve accomplished and feel like you can continue the process once I have left.

I have witnessed it time and time again; organizing your home can truly be life changing.

A great reminder after a hopeful relaxing Family Day… or if not relaxing, spent exactly how you wanted with who you wanted.

We spent ours at a hockey tournament. Is my house now a disaster? Yes! Did I put some work aside? Absolutely.

But being present and having fun while cheering on the team was worth every little piece of catching up I might have to do today.

Have an amazing rest of the week and I can’t wait to see my clients these next few days 🥳

and their amazing quotes

For those who are ready to tackle a project this weekend, I wanted to pass along my easy decluttering system.

It all begins with four simple bins;
-Donate
-Sell
-Keep
-Trash

Remember if you want to be productive in a short span of time, make your setup accessible and easy to follow.

Annnnnd, although some of those decisions between which bin they go in might not be as simple, having those bins at least allows you to make decisions and move forward.

Next step, take the “donate” bin to the donation centre right away! Don’t leave it hanging around. After all, second-guessing never get anyone anywhere 😜

AND

Give yourself the two week rule when it comes to selling items. If they don’t sell within two weeks you can either; lower the price and give it one more week OR realize its had its moments and it’s time to donate.

Send me some pictures of your projects. I love supporting you on your decluttering journey even if I’m booked. I will always support from afar. 😘

As life changes and evolves, sometimes your spaces have to follow.

Often times when I go to a clients house, my first questions are, “what’s behind that door?” Or “what’s that closet currently being used for?”

I’ve mentioned before about checking in with your storage and asking yourself if it’s really making the most use of the space.

This was a clients house that used this area for one thing but as they became parents, this area needed a shift to better accommodate their everyday needs.

One of the best parts of having me come to your home is to not only organize your spaces but to also see them from a completely different perspective.

Are you stuck? Let me help free you from the clutter, headache and frustration. Trust me, I LOVE it!! 🤓

I love organizing and helping prep homes for next steps.

This dining room is gorgeous and just needed a little revamp to give it that dinning room feel again.

Keeping the space dramatic with the walls but warming it up with the curtains (in love with the burlap texture these days). Then I topped it off with a modern light.

Now time for a glass of wine in this elegant space 🥰

Yes!! I can provide Gift Certificates 🎄

I’ve been asked this question a few times in the past two weeks and the answer is yes! Better yet, why not ask your loved ones for a gift certificate?

What’s a better gift then having me help you put all the Christmas gifts away 🤣

Simply send me a DM and I will gladly make it happen xo

Really enjoyed doing this entry Space. I love finding the perfect items for the perfect spot in a home.

One of my favourite things it to help clients figure out the “what now?” stage of organizing a home.

Don’t feel like you need to rush to find those items for a certain spot in your home. Take your time, shop around, and make sure you’re really in love with it. By doing this you avoid overspending due to over buying.

This space was a combination of and frames from Michaels.
