The Simplify Style

💌 This is your permission to break all the rules. Designing systems around the gold in clients is our inspiration in every home.

If your love language is quality time or gifting & baking brings you joy, forget the traditional kitchen setup! Use that prime real estate to make memories & love your people well. Create spaces that reflect the very best parts of yourself.

What does your day look like as the very best version of yourself? Walking through what your life looks like in a perfect world is my favorite part of the journey with a client.

We first edit what no longer supports that vision and begin thoughtfully adding pieces to set your environment up for success. Your goals are everything.

Goal - improve eating habits
Simplify Solution - eye level fruits & nuts, smoothie station with blender placed directly below in pullout drawer & dark chocolate treats readily available to avoid pretty much everything else when you have a sweet tooth

Thank you Knoxville Academy of Medicine Alliance for inviting me to speak about the value of the edit, organization and self-care. The Spring Clean theme was fun to prepare for! 🌿

Let’s talk about junk drawers! We can move mountains with or without product investment, but…. in a catch all space it’s a must.

🚨Spoiler Alert: It’s not simply to make them pretty.

We’re intentionally raising the level of responsibility for each family member. The separation this product creates is the necessary accountability to ✨return a random item to it’s designated home✨

When you need them, you need them. The goal is to minimize frustration searching and maximize the solution! Your family dynamic is our true passion, we just happen to make it beautiful! ☺️

Target for the win!! Sneak some Starbucks and browse the isles! ☕️

We LOVE same day transformations. ✨ Sourcing local has had its challenges without our beloved Container Store, but that’s allowed (demanded 😅) us to grow creatively. On REALLY fun projects we access, zone, edit, measure, shop, install in one whirlwind day.🌪 It’s a mad dash to the kid section (thank you Pillowfort), office, decor, literally ALL the sections!!

There are hidden product gems everywhere. Allow yourself to think outside the box! And if you happen to see two blondes, on a mission, with a stacked cart say Hello!! 🥰

*Secret Pantry Tip - add a pretty bowl out of reach of the kiddos and stash your favorite treat 🙌🏼

Fall has arrived and it’s our favorite time of year for garage projects!!

For many of us it’s the first moment when we arrive. Tough question - When you return home and open your garage door today will you be greeted with a calm welcoming or an overwhelming space?
THIS is why we love a good garage transformation!! It tends to set the tone.☺️

Check out the mid progress pic for real life. It ALWAYS looks impossible until that last 10%. Full disclosure - we are professional mess makers in the middle of large projects. You are always welcome to dive in with us and enjoy the process or strategically plan a getaway! 😆

Garage Tip : Sort like items. Invest in unified bins. Label for easy access to retrieve items and most importantly return. Once you (or we) put in the work keep that blower charged and in a handy location!

Our sweet little helper was crated for treats and love while the garage door was open. Unless it’s to keep to them safe bring on the pups, we’re kind of obsessed!! 🐶

I LOVE creating unexpected and beautiful moments that reflect my client’s style! Does your pantry and closet flow nicely with your home’s aesthetic?

Farmhouse chic pantry for my impeccably chic client and friend ! Still obsessing over the matte black bin and brass label combo. 🤩

Moving is exciting, but it can certainly be an overwhelming process. We’re here to help make the transition peaceful and organized. We’ll neatly pack you up - coordinate the movers with your schedule - and have you unpacked, organized, and enjoying your new home in record time.

Thank you Amelia Young and WBIR Channel 10 I’m excited to see what’s in store for Knoxville and all the new small businesses. It’s honor to be among them!

Catherine Porth Cahill, Knoxville Entrepreneur Center and Knoxville Chamber thank you for creating this space for us and being so intentional with your support.

According to a new report from the Tennessee Secretary of State, the first quarter of this year in Tennessee saw almost 20,000 new business filings.

Introducing Simplify Sketch - our new product planning feature! We can provide a digital blueprint, product recommendations and pricing sheet for client approval. We also included a sketch of the family in this layout which will be featured in the pantry.

We love our clients!

Professional Home Organizing - with zero judgment.

Organizing your physical space helps to reduce stress and anxiety, increase your love of your surroundings, boost productivity, and bring a sense of calm into your life. My goal is to create organizational systems that not only save you time and money, but also allows you to focus your energy where it matters most.

Here’s to strong women.
May we know them. May we be them.
May we raise them.

Happy 15TH Birthday to my Lovely Liv.

Taking a moment to truly appreciate Marie Kondo’s new line with the Container Store. It’s not only stunning and thoughtfully designed, her focus on sustainability makes me a HUGE fan.

I’ve admired her approach with clients since day one - the level of respect and kind encouragements. It’s a pretty accurate representation of what life looks like working with an organizer (usually with a lot more laughs). We LOVE making spaces beautiful, but the connection with our clients sacred. It’s a privilege to be trusted with your “mess” that we don’t take lightly.

I’m thrilled to see Marie Kondo come full circle - balancing practical function with beautiful design.

Does anyone else have their eyes on this incredible Women in Business movement in Knoxville?! It has been the honor of my LIFE organizing and encouraging women in the midst of this crazy season. Beyond grateful to each of my clients for welcoming me in to homes and trusting me to be a part of their journey. Im so excited to see where this year takes us!! ✨

Life happens. Tacos help.

When you open your pantry door do you have to brace yourself for the chaos? This is such a important space in our home and often overlooked. It’s the gateway to inspired meals with our families and healthy (or not so healthy) decisions are made.

Today I’m giving away my biggest pantry secret - Change the lightbulb 💡

A bright daylight bulb in your pantry changes everything! Start there. You’re welcome!!
