WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN WE WORK TOGETHER
BEFORE
YOUR SESSION
During your free consultation you can explain what you’re hoping to achieve from the work we do together and I'll answer your questions.
I’m interested in hearing how your rooms are used, who uses them and when. This helps me to understand how to make the space work for you.
I’ll encourage you to create a vision of your Ideal Lifestyle – this could be how you'd like your home to look, how you want to feel in your home or how you'd like the space to function more efficiently. Having a vision of how you want things to be will help motivate you to get started.
We’ll agree the focus for your first session. I'll confirm the cost and, if you're happy, we'll set the date for my first visit.
DURING
YOUR SESSION
Please don’t tidy up before I arrive. I like to see how the space we’re working in is currently used and what we need to sort through and organise.
We’ll work together to sort through your items deciding what to keep or discard based on the KonMari Method™ of identifying which items spark joy for you, this process takes up most of the session.
I'll never ask you to discard something you don’t want to but I will ask you questions about your “stuff” so that you know that you will love, need or use everything you keep.
I'll share ideas with you about reusing, donating or selling your items on auction sites such as Ebay.
We’ll always have time at the end of the session to organise your storage, making sure that everything you love and need has a home that works with your lifestyle.
AFTER
YOUR SESSION
I'll share organising tips and new routines to help you keep your space clutter free.
I can take a car load of good quality donated items to a local charity shop. I’m unable to take your discarded items to the local household waste site as I do not hold a waste carrier licence.
I'll give you some “homework” to complete after I’ve left so that you can try out some of the techniques by yourself.
The KonMari Method™ works best if you declutter your house in one go, this can take as long as it needs to, the important thing is to set aside regular sessions to work through the categories.
