Which organizing client are you?

If this describes you, then our DIY Organizing Program may be what you’ve been looking for to get you started on a new way of living in your home.

What will you get with DIY Organizing?

• A fresh perspective on where to start
• Bi-weekly tele-classes (that’s once every other week)
• Specific suggestions for what to buy, where to put it, how to use it
• A checklist to keep you accountable for following through

Think about it, when you want to lose weight, you may prefer to go it alone. Or you may realize that you are much more successful in achieving long term results when you have a nutritionist and a personal trainer on your team—with professional experience and know-how—to coach and guide you through the tough spots. Let Your Home Editor’s DIY Organizing Program help you with your “clutter diet.”

The DIY Organizing Program is a one-year investment for a lifetime of knowledge. This yearlong course in all things organizing is conducted via bi-monthly conference calls led by Heather Lambie (link to my bio), a NAPO-affiliated professional organizer and a former professional educator.

HOW IT WORKS

Each conference call session will address specific organizing challenges and resolve organizational and time management issues that potentially keep you from maximum efficiency and free time with loved ones. Topics include everything from the organization of specific rooms in the home, the epidemic of consumerism in this country and how to combat it, your organized student, and the best way to organize a yard sale. The topics are non-sequential so you may begin the course as soon as you decide you’re ready to change the way you’ve been living. We don’t want you to have to wait around until a “semester” begins, and we would be the last to encourage any kind of procrastination when it comes to organizing!

You will build a camaraderie with others who are experiencing similar issues. The class will be limited to 8 participants at any one time, so you’ll be getting lots of personal attention.
