Our goal at Hello Simplified is to lift the stress from your life. Our packing & unpacking services are one way we can help. Moves are often rushed and stressful, and there are a million and one things to figure out. The last thing you want to consider is where to put those kitchen dishes - yet it's essential for your daily functionality. As professional organizers, we do this every day, and we'd be delighted to set up your home for you, so you’re organized and in love with your new home from the start.​

Do you feel like it’s finally time to declutter and get organized, but the overwhelming thought of where to begin prevents you from diving in? You’re not alone there. That’s one of the top reasons people don’t start - or finish - home organizing projects. Sifting through all the items in your house can lead to decision fatigue and frustration, but that’s where we step in to help; as professional home organizers, we help you get unstuck and simplify the process. By decluttering and organizing your home, you’re making your daily life easier and creating a sense of calm and relaxation in your space.  ​

​If you feel overwhelmed every year with what to do with your twinkle lights and garland, we have a hack for you. We suggest taking photos of all of your decor in use and storing them in a labeled phone album that you can reference year after year. 
This means simply snapping a photo of your front porch, the mantel, the dining table centerpiece, etc after you’ve decorated. The idea is that if you can see how you decorated last season, you can mimic it easily and efficiently.

It’s no surprise that as professional home organizers, we love labels - but we have a good reason. They save time, and at the holidays, you know there is never enough time! 
To save time, we often encourage storing items in bins; clear bins can be the easiest to use (you can see the things in them without digging through!). If you have minimal decor items, storing them by type, such as all ornaments in one bin, candles in the other, etc., may work for you. (Did you know there are bins and bin inserts specifically designed for storing ornaments? Game changer!)
However, storing it by room/area could better benefit you if you have a larger home with many decorations. This method also works for those who like to use the same decor in the same area annually. 
Either way, labeling your decor in their respective bin is a lifesaver for holiday decorating. [Imagine no more digging through boxes trying to find that one nutcracker you swore you put in that one box last year!]

Have you ever bought a few rolls of wrapping paper and tape, only to start digging through a closet a few days later to find you already owned a ton of wrapping supplies? If you answered yes, we can help you eliminate the unnecessary clutter and spending with just one simple trick - organizing your wrapping supplies. 
​Plenty of products on the market help organize your gift-wrapping supplies, but it can be pretty simple too! First, round up all tape, ribbons, gift tags, bags, and wrapping paper. Discard anything broken or empty, and place all the items in one convenient location. 
You can use something as simple as an under-bed bin or our favorite small-space hack, a clear garment bag. Like pictured above, a garment bag is perfect for clearly seeing all your wrapping paper - and can hang right in the closet. No more wondering if you have wrapping paper or tape because when you need it, you’ll know exactly where to find it.
