Here are some great Before and After pictures of our client Nancy’s craft room. As Nancy describes it, with the help of her Seamless Moves team, she transformed a room that was so crowded she could only use it as a ‘dumping ground’ into a beautiful, practical workspace.

Nancy’s favorite parts of her organizing day (actually 4.5 hours) were:

1) Knowing what she could do to prepare for organizing day; 2) we took away items she wished to donate to charity and gave her an itemized tax receipt from the non-profit recipient; and 3) “They hung my child’s art!”

We really enjoyed helping Nancy reclaim her craft room and learning about knitting (she has a yarn category called “Yummy”).

Nancy said her team was, “competent, courteous, thorough and smart about what they do. Hire Them!”

T-Shirts Before

Do or your children you have a disorganized T-shirt drawer? Maybe your t-shirts are well-folded but stacked on top of each other in the drawer, making it difficult to see which one is which.  Here is Seamless Moves’ super-secret “Out of the Box” professional organizing tip so that you will quickly be able to find just the right t-shirt to fit the occasion.

As you may know, there are many ways to fold a t-shirt. For this tip, you will need to fold your t-shirts “store display” style, in other words you lay it on its front, fold both sides in to about the 1/3 mark, then fold the t-shirt in half. Depending upon the depth of your dresser drawer, you will either need to fold it in half again, or fold it in thirds instead of half. Make sure you can see some of the writing and/or picture on the top third and fold of the shirt.

Note: For a really fun, easy way to fold t-shirts, see videos on YouTube such as How to fold a Shirt in 2 Seconds or you can buy a plastic shirt-folder thingie from just about any garage sale in town.

Now here’s the big secret—ready? Don’t lay the t-shirts on top of each other in your drawer, stand them up on end with the neck opening facing down like this:

T-shirts After

What? Aunt Millie is on her way over? Where is that cutsie cat t-shirt she gave me? (Open drawer, look, grab = 3 seconds), “Hi, Aunt Millie. What? Oh yes, I wear this all the time; such a thoughtful gift!” And just think how quickly your kids will get dressed for school.

Enjoy!
