Thinking of Downsizing?
Is your 2-story 4-bedroom dream house a lumbering dinosaur
now?
Did you imagine your life after kids spent lugging the vacuum
cleaner up those stairs and spending just as much time cleaning
and repairing the house as when you were raising a family?
Many of us are thinking about downsizing. Guess what? You
can’t take 30 years of stuff with you if you intend
to live in a smaller environment!
A professional organizer can help you decide which your most
treasured items are.
You can’t keep everything if you plan to downsize and
why should you? The ancient theory of Feng Shui says that
everything holds energy and draws energy from the largest
source which is you! Downsizing requires very specific questions
to be answered. Just because your aunt left you that enormous
breakfront that you never really cared for, doesn't mean you
have to keep it. Give Aunt Shirley’s breakfront to someone
who has been looking for a piece like that forever or consign
it to an antique store. There is someone who will give it
the “love” it deserves.
What should you keep? What should you give the kids? How much
furniture is enough? Where do you place the furniture when
you get to that new home? These are questions a professional
organizer can help you answer.
