The article explores a personal experience of organizing a cluttered storage console in a living room, guided by professional organizer Ría Safford. The process began with completely emptying the console and categorizing a wide array of items. Safford's method emphasizes the importance of evaluating each item to determine its fate—whether to donate, discard, or keep. By creating a clear categorization and reassessing the storage needs, the space transformed from chaotic into functional, with items returned to their rightful places, showcasing the benefits of organization.
"Assess each item and decide if it can be donated, thrown away, moved to another space in the house, or if it stays," Safford instructs.
"It housed a candle collection, miscellaneous hosting supplies, seasonal decor, household items, craft supplies, batteries, and more. It all came out to be sorted through, categorized, or tossed."
"The console itself is beautiful, but once the doors are opened it's pure chaos. In truth, before organizing I wasn't even sure what was in the console itself anymore."
