Vacaville Organizer-stepping away
Hello organizing friends! After a great deal of contemplation, I have decided to no longer accept new clients or book consultations through the end of the year. This change is effective 9/1/16. I appreciate your overwhelming support, referrals and partnering with many of you with your organizing goals.
Happy Organizing!-Lorinda, owner of Vacaville Organizer

Vacaville Organizer and LuLaRoe
I see a lot of closets. Just recently, I helped a client edit and organize a closet which yielded 18 black garbage bags in donations. Closets are a woman’s inner sanctum…the place we let few people see. Why? I think it is one of the most personal spaces in the home. Our closets are full of memories-both good times and bad. Closets usually house our various sizes; I would say most women have at…

Could a baking center help you get organized in the kitchen?
Could a baking center help you get organized in the kitchen?
Does it take you 15 minutes to grab all the ingredients to make a simple batch of cookies? Do you often begin a recipe only to find out that you are lacking a simple staple? Does the way your kitchen is set up deter you from cooking? Maybe a baking center would help.
It is no secret that I have an affinity for organizing kitchens. I love the huge difference that a few hours can make. I work in a…

The Magic of Two Hours
The Magic of Two Hours
Where does the time go?
Two hours can pass so quickly. In two hours you can watch two evening television programs, one movie, wash and dry a load of laundry, make and serve dinner, drive back and forth to work, go to the dentist or a myriad of other seemingly ordinary, mundane tasks. Do you ever ask yourself where the time went at the conclusion of a busy day? You may feel exhausted, but you…

The Myth about Storage Bins
The Myth about Storage Bins
 Storage bins, baskets and containers are everywhere after the holidays.
They are alluring.
They are on sale.
They come in great colors.
They are offered in a dizzying amount of sizes and styles.
They illicit thoughts of neatly organized spaces.
Don’t buy a single bin until you read this.
Our homes are over-run with storage, yet we are not more organized as a result. You may ask yourself, “why”?

Free, In-Home Consultations
I saw them setting up the Christmas isle in Target yesterday. Holy smokes! Yes, the holidays are just around the corner. Baking, parties, family gatherings and big dinners are a part of the fabric of many families during the holiday season. Ask yourself-
Is my kitchen ready for baking? Would I feel comfortable having holiday guests? There is plenty of time to schedule a free consultation with…

Food Storage Containers...You Need LESS
Food Storage Containers…You Need LESS
I promise you that you need less food storage containers than you think.
Open your food storage cabinet and take a peek for yourself. I can give a pretty good guess what it will contain:
A huge stack of disposable containers
A pile of mis-matched Rubbermaid bowls. You have about half of the matching lids
A few good TupperWare pieces. You only have one or two of these lids.
Most of the contents…

NEW! School Memory Book Service Offered
New Service: Â School Memory Books
An an organizer, in nearly every home I encounter bins of school papers. The most common explanation as to “why” families haven’t done anything with their children’s paperwork, school photos, artwork and memorabilia is two-fold:
They simply do not have the time. These are busy, dedicated mothers and fathers who often have more than one job and adding to their…

During our consultation, she expressed a desire for her pantry to have the following elements:
Tiffany-blue and grey color scheme
Canvas bins for bulky items (did not want to see ugly, larger bags of product)
spice and pantry staple storage located…

Organization does not have to be time-consuming or expensive. This quick kitchen cupboard update’s cost was less than $13 dollars and took less than an hour. Take a little peek inside of a darling client’s cupboard I had the privilege of giving a “quick update” to recently.
This is a very typical kitchen cupboard and my client had great components already in place. Often, there isn’t a need to…

Beautiful Pantry Reveal
The kitchen pantry is one of the most used parts of the home. Most families are in and out of their food storage cabinets/pantries multiple times a day. To complicate matters, the pantry is a communal space as all families members need to access it. It is a heavy-traffic area in most homes. According to the book, What Americans Build and Why: Psychological Perspectives, 85% of Americans want a…

Wrapping and Crafting Organized
January is National Get Organized Month according to N.A.P.O. (the National Association of Professional Organizers). I decided to tackle a project closer to home, my own disaster craft and wrapping supplies and take advantage of the Container Store’s semi-annual Elfa Sale. Elfa is a line which the Container Store offers that includes shelving and other storage pieces which is completely…
