Making Space with Lily

Week 7: Pantry & Freezer Clean-Out! 🥫🧂

Week 7 should be an easy one! 🎉 This week, we’re checking expiration dates, tossing anything that’s expired, and making room for the things we actually use.

💡 Remember: Just because you don't need it doesn't mean it needs to go in the trash! Maybe someone gifted you a fancy condiment you know you'll never eat, you bought something for a recipe you didn't end up making, or an extra item randomly showed up in your Instacart order. If it's still good but you know you won't use it, consider donating it to a local food pantry like Operation Food Search! ❤️

✨ Your challenge: Spend just 10 minutes a day clearing out these spaces. Check dates, toss what's no longer good, donate what you can, and put everything back where it belongs.

Remember, the goal isn't to keep things just because you might use them someday. It's to make space for the things you actually love and use!

Seven weeks in, you're making progress! Progress over perfection. Every little bit counts! 💪

Today is National Mental Health Day, and in honor of that my latest blog post is on organization for the ADHD brain. If you or anyone close to you struggles with organization, be sure to give it a read!

In honor of World Mental Health Day on October 10, this month I’m writing about getting organized with ADHD.For someone with ADHD, clutter isn’t always a motivation problem. It can be an executive-function problem. The goal when organizing with me isn’t to tell you to “be more disciplined......

JUST GET RID OF IT! — WEEK 5 🧸👟

How did Week 4 go? 🧣👜

Hopefully you were able to make some progress on those accessories and get your seasonal wardrobe switched over. And remember, if you didn't finish everything, that's okay! You can always come back to it.

Now we're moving on to WEEK 5: KIDS! 👧🧒

If you don't have kids… lucky you! 😉 You've got an extra week to catch up on clothing and accessories, or tackle another area that's been bothering you.

But if you do have kids, this week might feel a little more challenging. Kids accumulate SO. MUCH. STUFF. And somehow it seems to multiply overnight! 😂

The key this week? START SMALL.

You don't have to conquer the entire playroom or every bin of hand-me-downs. Pick one small category, set your timer for 10 minutes, and just get started.

And if you find yourself staring at a pile of school artwork thinking, “I can't possibly get rid of this!” I get it. I will for sure be talking about some ways to make those decisions easier.

Stick with it! By next week, you'll be glad you did.

And don't forget to TAG while you're participating! Every tag gives you a chance to win 2 HOURS OF FREE ORGANIZING SERVICES WITH ME! 🎉

10 minutes. One category. One less pile of stuff.

JUST GET RID OF IT! — WEEK 4 🧣👜

How did the clothing challenge go? 👚👖

For some, clothing is a no-brainer—you can fill a donation bag in no time. For others, it can be one of the hardest categories to tackle. There are memories, “just in case” pieces, and clothes we really want to fit into again.

However it went for you, progress is progress! 🙌

Now that the cooler weather is finally starting to arrive, it’s the perfect time to move on to ACCESSORIES! 🧣👜👟

As you switch out your wardrobe for the season, take a few extra minutes to go through those accessories and cooler-weather layers.

And while you're at it, pack away those summer essentials. Before putting them into storage, ask yourself:

Did I actually wear this this summer?
Will I realistically wear it next summer?
Would I buy this again today?

If the answer is no… JUST GET RID OF IT! 😉

And don't forget to TAG as you work through the challenge! 📸 Every tag gives you a chance to win 2 HOURS OF FREE ORGANIZING SERVICES WITH ME! 🎉

Ten minutes at a time. One category at a time. Less stuff. More space. No overwhelm.

Who’s ready to tackle the accessories?! 👇

JUST GET RID OF IT! — WEEK 3 👕👖
How did Week 2 go?! 🛁📚
Did you clear off the bathroom counter? Find some products that had definitely expired? Finally let go of a few books you’ve been holding onto “just in case”?
Whatever you accomplished, celebrate it! Remember: this challenge is about progress, not perfection. Even 10 minutes makes a difference!

And now we’re moving on to a category that can be very easy for some people and VERY hard for others… CLOTHES. 👚👖
This week, we’re taking it one category at a time.

Some of these may be total no-brainers. Others might make you pause and think, “But what if I need this someday?” 😂
My advice? Start with the easy wins. Build some momentum, and then tackle the harder categories when you’re ready.
Set your timer for 10 minutes, pick ONE category, and...

New blog post is up! This one outlines the whole 75-Day challenge if you’d like to plan ahead 😁

Nobody’s perfect. Shocking, I know! But while that may not be a revolutionary idea, it does mean that everyone has at least a little room for self-improvement. I always strive to find ways to be a little better, so a few months ago, when I was offered the chance to join a summer accountability gro...

IT’S TIME TO JUST GET RID OF IT!

Are you ready to make a little more space in your home—and your life?

Today kicks off my 75-Day Decluttering Challenge!

The concept is simple: 10 minutes a day for 75 days. That’s it!

No spending hours organizing.
No pulling everything out of your closet.
No creating a giant donation pile that sits in your garage for three months. 😂

Just 10 focused minutes to get rid of things you no longer need, use, or love.

Here’s how it works:

⏱️ Set a timer for 10 minutes.
🗑️ Declutter—don't organize what you don't need.
🚗 If something can leave your house today, let it leave!
💚 Focus on progress, not perfection.
🙌 Miss a day? No guilt. Just pick back up where you left off.

Week 1 is all about the QUICK WINS, with seven small areas to tackle—including your junk drawer, kitchen counter, junk mail pile, expired coupons, takeout menus, everyday purse/bag, and car console.

And because a little accountability never hurts… 😉

TAG ME as you complete each day's challenge! Every tag = one entry to win 2 FREE HOURS of professional organizing services at the end of the challenge!

Who's joining me?!
