We like big bins and we cannot lie!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Because when kids can see it, grab it, and put it back, playrooms practically organize themselves!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A few of our go-to playroom organizing tips:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✔️ Use large, clearly labeled bins to simplify clean-up (bonus points if you use photo labels for littles)
✔️ Stick to a neutral color palette to reduce visual clutter
✔️ Group toys by category for easy resets
✔️ Store puzzles and board games vertically (like books on shelves) or reduce them down in size by storing them in labeled vinyl bags
✔️ Choose bins that grow with your kids (hello, longevity)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The result? A functional playroom that works for kids and parents!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Want the exact bins we use and love? Head to our LTK where we’ve done the organizing homework for you and linked our favorite playroom storage bins.

Here’s a little secret: If you forgot you owned it, you probably don’t need it. Which is why we try to put items on display as much as possible as we organize for clients. 🤫

It’s also the reason why we start every project with an editing session! It never ceases to amaze me what treasures we find!

A moment for the lighting, each swipe will have you swooning!

We all know it’s the littlest humans who somehow come with the most stuff.

From mini hoodies to tiny shoes and every little must-have in between, this closet has a place for it all, making outfit changes, park prep, and post-nap wrangling way easier.

The best part? Labeled zones mean no more digging around. Because let’s be honest—tired parents don’t have time for treasure hunts.

Happy Valentine’s Day from the LOVEliest closet!! 💋💋💋

A new love letter just hit the blog ❤️

Love is in the pantry! ❤️

When was the last time you took inventory of what’s expired or no longer edible in your pantry?

Here are a few tips to help you live with less and waste less:

✔️ Pull everything out and group like with like (snacks, grains, canned goods, baking supplies)

✔️ Toss what's expired (yes, even that seasoning you haven’t touched since 2018)

✔️ Use clear bins or baskets to contain categories and make things easy to see and grab

✔️ Write down what you already have and plan meals around it before hitting the grocery store

✔️ Less variety = less waste. Stick to what you know you’ll eat

🧹 Minimalism isn’t about deprivation—it’s about intention. Especially when it comes to your food and how much of it ends up in the trash.

👇Drop a 🧽 if you're ready to do a pantry purge this week. Or tell us —what’s the weirdest expired item you’ve found lately?

Post-Holiday Toy Overload? We've Got You Covered! 🎁🎄

After the gift wrap settles and the new toys make their debut, it’s the perfect time to press reset on your playroom!

Whether you're wrangling remote-control cars, rehoming rogue puzzle pieces, or just trying to make space for the season's favorites, a little organization can go a long way (and look this good doing it 👆).

🎯 Pro tip: Group like items, use labeled bins or crates, and make the most of vertical storage (hello, rainbow book display goals! 🌈📚).

BUT HERE’S THE BEST PART ➡️ Before tucking away every single toy, take a moment to sort and share the joy. We’ve rounded up our favorite Donate + Do Good resources so you can pass along gently-loved toys to kiddos who could really use a little magic this season. ❤️

Head to thebaerminimalist.com and click Donate + Do Good to find a giving opportunity near you!

Pssssttt….Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. We just thought you’d like to know (and obviously share our favorite gift, The Luxe Edit, a bespoke closet transformation from @the_styleriot and @thebaerminimalist)!

Sundays are for sneakers. 👟

We loved how these mudroom shelves turned out, plenty of space for the whole family's footwear obsession, styled and sorted to perfection.

Want to step up your own shoe storage game? We’ve linked our go-to organization must-haves over on @LTK!

Can we just take a moment for maximizing pantry space when space is limited 😍

The power of an edit session!

This primary closet got a facelift and maxed out shoe storage with some new product, a shoe lovers dream. 😍

It’s time to welcome guests for the next few weeks, whether we are ready or not. A few ideas to get your guest “quarters” ready that don’t cost a thing:

✨Grab a few hangers and clear some space in the closet.
✨Pull together some of the leftover travel toiletries you’ve snagged from hotels and add them to a convenient location for your guests.
✨Just in case you have early risers hanging around, make sure the @nespresso is ready to rock and roll this week. Maybe then, you can get a little extra shut eye.

Merry, merry friends!!

We just love having the chance to showcase some unexpected organized moments throughout another gorgeous #mckenziepierrothomes by @jodipierrotdesign and @madebymckenzie.

Located in @holliday_farms, this home could be yours for the holidays. 🎄 Just give @callmattindy a call!!

Christmas break is right around the corner — and that means cozy days and lots of creative energy to burn! 🎨

We’re obsessed with how this craft zone turned out, perfectly organized, easy to access, and designed to let little imaginations run wild (without the chaos).

By giving everything a place, your kiddos can create independently and clean up like pros — which makes this setup a win for them and for you.

Ready to turn your own craft chaos into a calm, creative space? You’re one edit session away from getting there! Now booking for 2026!

This snow (storm) has me feeling extra excited for a handful of clients who prioritized their garages this Fall. Because parking inside your garage is the ultimate gift when you pull in from a day of Small Business Saturday support!

Partnering with @thecontainerstore @elfa_international allowed us to truly maximize every inch!!

Homework, but make it dreamy. 💭 ☀️

How could you not dream, doodle, or debate your way through homework here?

Six organizers walk into their local @thecontainerstore and one of our favorite employees called it a Baer Crawl! I can’t. 😂

We strolled aisle by aisle scoping out new + old favorites and talked about unique ways to use products throughout the home. And now we are spilling our secrets for our 2026 must-haves.

What product is on your wish list?

File this under: things that make mornings easier.

Your daily dose of organization, delivered. ✅

When your stand mixer deserves VIP treatment, but counter space is precious… we roll in the perfect solution! A sleek 3-tier cart that tucks perfectly under shelving for a dose of pantry refresh magic.

Now that beauty can cruise to the kitchen whenever baking time calls. 🍪🧁

Say goodbye to wire shelves and hello to flow!

We upgraded this closet using @thecontainerstore Elfa — no more wire shelving, just beautiful, functional magic. With attic access taking up one side, we added hanging space that works around it perfectly! No guest work needed. Every drawer and rod mapped out clearly before a single item was placed!

If this maximized space inspo has your dreaming of your own closet glow up, let us wave our magic wand.

📅 Head to the link in our bio to the consultation today!

This pantry got the glow-up it deserved and it only took one quick edit session and a follow-up product install with just one organizer! Truly magic!

She wanted pretty, he needed easy-to-see options… and now they both get exactly what they wanted 🙌🏼

Swipe ➡️ to see the before + after, we’re proud of this one!

What if a high-traffic area in your home, like the pantry, also had beautiful heirlooms on display??

Or your closet had some personality woven in?

We believe that no matter how small the space, there are ways to honor your past. Curious how?? Let’s explore the items that are being stored away and see how we can incorporate them today.

Oh hey germ season…is that you??

Before the those sick vibes make their grand entrance, take a quick inventory of your medicine cabinet! Ditch the expired stuff and restock the essentials. This Lazy Susan might get a little dizzy this year, but she sure makes it easy to seek + find in those moments of need. 🙃💊

We’ve rounded up our go-to organizing faves and linked them all for you in our @shop.ltk

Mornings made easy in a kid-sized closet!

From clearly labeled bins (that are no longer overflowing) to clear shoe organizers and easy-to-reach hangers (bonus: they’re matching 😍), getting the kids out the door on time just got a whole lot smoother!

If your mornings could use a little more calm, an editing session just might be your solution! Let’s chat and make your mornings stress-free! ☕

When your pantry has a system, everyone wins 🎉
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
No more scavenger hunts for snacks, just clear bins, easy finds + peace of mind. Not to mention, look how fabulous it looks with solid systems in place!

If yours feels like chaos, let’s chat!

It's National Taco Day and you can't have tacos without a festive cocktail! 🍹

We love any excuse to dust off our label maker, mix in clear bins and organize each and every space in your home…with the entertaining closet being no exception.

Even the most organized homes have spaces that need a little extra love. We are just one click away from giving yourself that gift!

And just like that…it’s time for a @indybuilders Home-A-Rama takedown. (Anyone else have this soundtrack on repeat)??

What a blast being a part of the @custom__living and @madebymckenzie + @jodipierrotdesign #mckenziepierrothomes beauties!

Until next year…. ✌🏼

PSA: Time to pull out the Halloween PJs 👻 🎃

If yours are MIA (somewhere between summer sandals + last year’s holiday sweaters), we’ve got you!

📱 Book an edit session with us + make space for spooky season!

Fall is calling... and so is your seasonal wardrobe swap. 🍂

Whether your sweaters are tucked away or your closet’s working overtime year-round, here are a few tips to ease into the new season:

1️⃣ Shift → Rotate your wardrobe with intention
2️⃣ Edit → Clear what no longer serves you
3️⃣ Donate → Drop your gently worn pieces at @thetoggeryresale (we’ll even help set you up with a consignment account!)
4️⃣ Access → What you wear most should be easiest to reach

Feeling overwhelmed? Deep breath. We’re here to help you make the shift seamless. Currently booking seasonal refresh sessions!

@indybuilders Home-A-Rama is in full swing with weekend #2 kicking off today! We were honored to partner with @custom__living, @inspiredclosetsindy, @thedutchgirlshop and @parksidelinen to bring this beautiful primary closet to life!

Styling a space for a show like this is always a chance to partner with fabulous friends (like liners @exactmats and accessories from @kjschendel’s collection), test out new products (@sortjoy) and get a little creative in the space as we flex our organizing skills. 💪🏼

The show features seven luxury builds in Chatham Hills, all with their own personality and style. Come visit Thursday through Sunday, this weekend and next, from 12-8pm!!

Some projects are about so much more than organizing. 💛

After reading Swedish Death Cleaning, this client wanted to thoughtfully sort through family mementos—lightening the load for loved ones while celebrating what matters most. Together, we organized the most precious pieces into keepsake boxes, creating a beautiful way to hold onto memories for generations to come.

Every project tells a story, and we’re honored to play a small supporting role in preserving the chapters that matter most.

Having little pops of “Organized Moments” in the @madebymckenzie @jodipierrotdesign was an absolute delight! This home is over the top stunning and calling attention to the beautiful cabinetry in the pantry and laundry, and the garage closet was an honor. And we got to partner with @parksidelinen to have luxe details in each space (I mean, look at that pickleball basket)!

Folks, we have one more weekend to tour the @indybuilders Home-A-Rama homes. Add it to the weekend bucket list!
