Taylor and I just returned home from the annual National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO) organizing conference, this year hosted in sunny Los Angeles. Over 4 days we met with fellow organizers from all around the country, connected with local friends in the business, and gained more educational insight through professional development workshops that focused on topics we love like: working with hoarders, helping clients with ADHD, tips for greater productivity, and efficiency ideas for home relocations, just to name ...

An Organized Garage with TONS of Inspiration
Happy Monday my friends! I hope you have all recovered from your Superbowl festivities. I honestly didn't care to watch, I'm still holding out for the Detroit Lions to make it to a Superbowl one day to become a fan. I know it will probably never happen but I need to stand by my team. I spent the weekend relaxing for a change, it was nice to have two days off in a row. Saturday we headed to Napa for the afternoon and Sunday my friend Larry came over for lunch and some light decorating at my house. I have had a few lingering ... Keep Reading >>
Santa Cruz Craft Room Transformation
Today's before and after will either put a smile on your face (because the transformation is beautiful) or serve as an episode of "scared straight, this is your life." Either way, I'm happy - HA! When this client contacted me I was knee-deep in a estate full of crafts and was oh, so tempted to tell her I was crafted out, but the more I listened to her specific needs the more I wanted to check it out. Our client is a artisan and teacher who has lost both of her legs and desperately needed a transformation of her work space that ... Keep Reading >>

An Organized Home in Silicon Valley Part 2
I'm back today with part two of this week's organizing inspiration! As I mentioned in Monday's blog post, my goal for 2015 is to balance out the estate sale marketing with more beautiful spaces that my staff and I have organized. In that post I shared gorgeous photos from a home that we have organized from top to bottom in Silicon Valley. It started as a relocation project and over the last 6 months we have unpacked, fine-tuned, and maintained the space. When I say "we" I am including my wonderful clients who have been ...

An Organized Home in Silicon Valley Part 1
Kuzak's Closet gets to work on so many beautiful organizing projects each week, some are shared on the blog or social media sites like Instagram and Facebook, but the majority of projects are never shared. In 2015 my goal is to work on creating more of a balance between the estate marketing and the organizing inspiration. The organizing side of Kuzak's Closet is just as thriving as the estate side (hard to believe, I know ... yes, it causes lack of sleep) and I love the balance of services that we are able to provide - but I ...
