Hey friend! Can you feel it? The days are getting longer, the sun is shining a little brighter, and spring is right around the corner.

✔️ The five-minute scan—for the stuff you already know needs to go.
✔️ The "would I buy it again?" test—because guilt is not a reason to keep things.
✔️ Setting limits—so your closet doesn’t turn into a black hole of “maybe I’ll wear this someday.”
Plus, I’ll walk you through how to maintain organization in small spaces (hello, tiny closets!) and why decluttering is always the first step to an organized home.And if you’re ready to take things to the next level, don’t miss my Clutter Clinic Workshop this April!
