Meck Organizing’s own Nancy Meck was recently tapped in a Good Housekeeping article on the color coding bookshelf trend.

“How you arrange your books should be based on how you are using your books and your personal aesthetic. If they are set out mainly for decoration to warm up a space and provide interesting talking points, then color coding could be one option if the consistency or progression of color is visually appealing to you. Some dig it, some think it looks too staged.”

“Worst way to arrange them: Piled up and forgotten in the bottom of a box in the attic or other storage space. Use them or lose them. Their words and pictures do no one any good if they aren’t seen, accessible, and in good condition.”

Tired of your wardrobe? See what happens when you tell a 6 year old she can dress you! My pint sized stylist's philosophy was very Rachel Zoe "More is More"! Jewelry from my grandmother, Yacht Rock hat from a group night out, several bday presents from dear friends...see things through a different lens, embrace what you've got, and have some fun even if you don't leave the front porch!

After you say yes to the dress - and yes to the groom - what's the answer to, "Where do I put this gown?" First, have it professionally cleaned. Then, some choose to hang it (use breathable cotton garment bag if covering it) and some choose to box it (use acid-free paper and acid-free, archival box). The hanging ones often take the position at the far, dark corner of the closet, the boxed ones often get shifted around because the box is too big for a standard shelf and thus gets in the way. Another option is to frame it so it becomes a piece of art to be seen and appreciated on more than just your wedding day. This first photo at our client's is of her grandmother's framed wedding dress along with photos to deepen the connection to the person in addition to The Big Day.

More and more, we're finding homes and offices stocked with all sorts of products not needed to reach the clients' goals for peace, productivity, order, and great vibes. Blame marketing, impulse shopping, bad advice, changed plans or no plans. Save time, money, and energy by first deciding what you want to store and where you want to store it, then source a product that meets that need. Don't just buy because something is on sale, looks cute, or works for your friend. The wrong or excess product creates bulk, it might not be returnable, and it will ultimately end up in a landfill. Protect your resources (time, money, energy, the 🌎!), and buy strategically, knowing when enough is enough.

Thank you to the wonderful staff at The Container Store Buckhead, especially Trish pictured, who helped with this large return when I was the first customer at opening Saturday morning. Over $600 back to our client. We're putting it toward an closet system for a long-term solution for home!

Happy shopping!

Wore a for the first time today while managing a very crowded garage project. I know now when people ask, "What's it like to be a professional organizer?" I can respond that it's not unlike playing ice hockey. 🏒

That "healthy dose of OCD" required for this profession is also wondering why no credit for the full 10am to 7pm of constant motion on the job. Do we never outgrow the need for a gold star? My word. Maybe that's the lesson...relax! ⭐️

"I just found this on the counter. We had nothing to do with it. Nancy, have you been training her. We’ll share the final version when we see it. Based on the color version, there is probably more to come."

Got this from my brother. Niece Alexandra and her mom have been working on her room. It's inspired Alexandra to write a book. Author, artist, and organizer!

Your children may have a vision for their room, too. I always start off helping with kids' rooms by asking the kid if they could change up the room, what would they want. It's often a big surprise to the parent. Then we take it from there with changes we can make given time, budget, accessibility, and new habits. Apparently you can also now call Alexandra, or read her book, if you need a peer consult. ☺️

We've managed so many client moves in the last few months we've lost count, but one thing we can count on is this group of guys at who have helped us through many tricky relocations. If you are gathering quotes for an upcoming move, don't be shy about asking for details about how the company works and the projected costs. What kind of training does the team get? What type of insurance do they have? Do they do background checks on those they hire? Are they employees or subcontractors? Do they own their own trucks or rent one for the job? Will they bring protective covering for the floors and walls? Do they move and also pack? If so, how are the materials priced? Do they do disassembly and reassembly of beds, tables...trampolines? Do they do de-install and re-install of TVs? Do they provide crates for art and light fixtures? How much an hour per person? Do they charge when the team breaks for lunch? Is there a transport fee for the truck from the warehouse to the move site? Do they have a storage facility and if so, what type of security is there, how & when can you access it, is it multi-levels, is it pods, vaults, units, or open warehouse space? Will you have a designated pick up and drop off date or a window of time? Will your things be transferred from one truck to another at any point? What about a shuttle if the moving truck is too big to get to your house, what are those costs, and when will you know if that's required? Will the same team members be there every day? If the price is by weight, can you see record of the weight of the empty truck and the weight of it with your things loaded? What items will they not transport? How long have they been in business? What is the phone number for the driver / lead? What number do you use to contact the company rep if your move is after hours and there are questions or issues? What is their claims process like? Is there a processing fee to pay by credit card? Will they haul away packing debris and if so, is that an added charge?

Get your questions answered and have things clear in writing. Moving is tough enough. Know before you go.

We've found a lot of things on moves over the course of 20 years, but this week was the first time finding a runaway dog. Sweet girl was returned home...after snagging a slice of the movers' pizza (which here she's licking the last of). Was a nice way to meet the neighbors & let them know their pup will soon have two new four-legged friends to play with!

"All the Junkluggers were super pleasant and efficient. Thank you SO MUCH for lining them up!" The client had been wanting to empty her storage unit for years, she was tired of paying for it, but felt "stuck." She called at 5:30pm. At 9:30am the next day, Nancy met her at the storage unit with movers she set up, managed the move crew as they emptied the unit, and while there strategized with her and made calls about mattress disposal, bulk trash removal, what to do with the rest. Then Nancy confirmed with the storage facility's front office all account closing requirements had been met and headed to her home with the movers following. She cleared space in her garage and in a spare room for the items brought, and while doing so helped her make decisions on what to keep at the house, donate, discard, save for a family member, or try to sell, then managed the movers as they helped her move things based on those categories.

While there, Nancy took photos of items the client wanted to try to sell and circulated the photos to a long list of resellers she knows and lined up an in-person look. Then she had her friends at Junkluggers come out the next day and haul off everything destined for donation and disposal, and confirmed that the client received a donation receipt.

Thank you, Junkluggers, for helping, and being so nice and professional while doing so! The client is now down a storage unit and up a garage bay!

We get asked what to do with trophies & other awards. Our answer is we can't tell you, but we can talk to you and help you come to comfortable and certain decisions about what you want to do with them. Some will mean more than others. Like these awards earned by my mother, Kathy. She was a constant, positive force supporting my brother, me, her students, and those she volunteered with earn their own awards and be the best they wanted to be. She rarely, if ever, spoke of her own achievements. Often my brother and I didn't even know about them until someone else told us, back then having seen it in the newspaper. I found a whole stack that I've never before seen in the bottom of a dusty box in the storage room. She was so incredible and so humble.

Happy Mother's Day to you and your #1 Moms. 🥇
