Brand new house. Brand new kitchen. And soon… a brand new baby! This sweet client moved in just two months ago, and with a little one on the way, getting this kitchen set up right was such a privilege. We were so excited to get our hands on this beautiful space and create systems that will grow with her family for years to come. Can’t wait to see all the memories (and meals!) made here.

I should gatekeep this, but that’s not my style.

If your flowers only look good from one angle, this is for you. I like my arrangements to feel balanced all the way around, not just from the front, and the easiest way to do that is using a lazy susan.

I put the vase on it, spin as I go, and adjust as needed. No guessing. No awkward reaching. Just an easy way to see the whole picture while you work.

I use this every time I arrange my @traderjoes flowers and it instantly makes them look more intentional and pulled together without overthinking it.

Will you try this next time you bring flowers home?

First Project Day™ of 2026, and it was for one of my OG clients.

This was our fifth Project Day™ together, which honestly makes me so happy.

This linen closet had super deep shelves. You know the kind. Things get pushed to the back, forgotten, and then accidentally rebought because it feels easier than digging.

So we got to work. We sorted, categorized, and zoned everything using the right products so nothing gets lost and everything is easy to see.

The goal isn’t perfection. It’s a stress-free closet and no more overbuying because you can actually see what you already have.

All the products we used are linked in my LTK. Link in bio.

If you want one slightly sassier or shorter, say the word and I’ll do one more pass.

Because this tree needed a second post. The details were doing too much to stay in one reel.

A Ralph Lauren–inspired Christmas on a real tree. Layered, full, and unapologetically Dominican.

Every ornament tells a story. Some sourced, some collected, some passed down. Nothing random. Nothing sparse.

This is what happens when classic meets culture. When tradition gets to be textured, and personal.

Swipe slowly. There’s a lot to take in 🎄✨

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHoliday #LTKHome

Ralph Lauren Christmas. But Dominican 🇩🇴

Because minimal was never invited.

When my Dominican princess, long-term client. IYKYK. said she wanted a Ralph Lauren–inspired Christmas on a REAL tree, but packed to the gills like a proper Dominican tree, we said say no more. We got you.

Classic. Cozy. Full. No bare branches allowed.

I’m obsessed with how it turned out.

I linked what I could in my LTK. The rest is family heirlooms and a little magic from @homegoods and @homesense_us

What do we think.

You don’t need to buy all new decor to make your porch feel fresh for fall.

I reused almost everything I already had from past years.

The only new pieces are two wreaths from @homesense_us and a few Costco mums — which, by the way, will last way longer if you water them from the bottom.

That gold table? My neighbor put it out for bulk pickup and I couldn’t let it go to waste. A quick coat of spray paint and it instantly pulled everything together.

It’s not about doing a total makeover every season.

It’s about using what you already have, adding a few small touches, and giving it new life.

Because cozy doesn’t have to mean new everything.

Feeling kinda 90s

You’re gonna want to swipe to the end for the before. Trust me—this one’s wild.

This office slash guest room was the final boss of a full-home transformation we started back in January.

We organized every inch of this city apartment and saved the biggest, boldest project for last.

Yes, the physical transformation is epic (because wow).

But the real transformation? My client.

He let go of years of “I’ll deal with it later.”

He accepted help.

And he trusted us to design a space that reflects who he is—a true renaissance man with many hobbies, a love of good design, and now a guest room for friends and family.

Now he’s happy. The whole family’s happy.

And I’m a little sad it’s over 😭

They’ve become part of our family.

When my house was professionally painted in 2019, I took every leftover can and poured it into large mason jars and I wrote the color name and where it’s used. People thought I was nuts 😝

Five years later… they still pop when I open them.

The secret? Extreme temp changes ruin paint, so never store it in the garage.

Save this for your next painting project — you’ll thank me later.

When my MIL asked what toy to get my son, I told her a Dyson vacuum.

The reaction from a lot of people was: “But that’s a girl’s toy!”

And if you know me, you know exactly what I think about that. 🙃

Fast forward four years and now that same vacuum is going to my neighbor’s little boy. Because whoever said boys will be boys was right — and that should include learning housework too.

Growing up, I saw my mom work full-time (sometimes while running a business) and still come home to do all the chores. Girls were expected to learn it all. Boys weren’t. That imbalance shaped so much of the mental load we still carry today.

I want something different for my boys. Domestic toys, chores, and learning how to take care of themselves should be normal. Because if we want women to stop carrying everything, then boys need to grow up knowing how to do their part.

👉 What do you think — should we normalize domestic toys for boys?

If you want to GASP — make sure you swipe all the way to the BACK for the before 👀

I’ve known this young lady since she and my son were in the same baby room at daycare nearly 10 years ago 🥹 So getting to design her tween bedroom? An absolute JOY.

We created a space that feels fun, fresh, and totally her—while still being able to grow with her as she continues to shine bright ✨

To say I’m obsessed with how it turned out is an understatement.

I hope you love it as much as we loved putting it together!

As a professional organizer, I am sometimes reluctant to share outfit links because many of my clients struggle with over-consumption, but one of my clients once told me, “Leydi, you are EXACTLY the person we want product recommendations from!”

So here goes my first LTK outfit post!

#LTKMidsize #LTKOver40 #LTKFindsUnder100

This thing gets a workout. It’s a mini hammer, screwdriver, and the real MVP—it pulls out those stuck, hard-to-reach cabinet pins.

We show up prepared on every job. Tools, supplies, backup plans.

But if there’s one tool I can’t live without, it’s this one.

Worked with this amazing repeat client to create a comfortable and stylish hangout space for both adults and kids—because let’s be real, kids ONLY want to play where the grownups are!

Honestly, this is exactly how it goes down in my house too. Our playroom? Crickets… until other kids come over!

Anyway, check out this awesome space we worked on today for one of our totally cool and amazing clients. All our clients are freaking amazing, but some just make it extra special. So grateful for the love and trust to bring their home dreams to life while giving them systems that help manage the stress of everyday life.

Now tell me—what did you think about that LEGO collection?!

You know that moment when a space finally comes together?

That’s my jam!

I lovvvvvve styling bookshelves (like can’t stop, won’t stop love).

So when this repeat client asked us to help add the finishing touches to their newly renovated basement family room, I was all in.

We first connected while the reno was still underway!

We talked through layout ideas, furniture placement, and even chatted with their contractor to make sure the whole vision came to life (they did an excellent job, BTW!).

Then once everything was built out, we circled back to bring it all together—from sourcing accessories to styling every last shelf.

The result?

A cozy, layered, lived-in space that feels like home, without sacrificing function.

Had to use two hands to count how many projects we’ve done for this client.

We go way back—and after organizing almost every inch of her apartment, we saved the best for last: her bedroom.

Calm, serene, and chic.

Not only did this space need to feel like a retreat for her and her partner, but it also had to make room for baby #3, arriving in just a few weeks.

We layered in different textures, tones, and styles because when everything matches, it falls flat.

If you want that magazine look, the key is mixing materials that feel collected, not cookie-cutter.

When was the last time your bedroom got any attention?

This little guy is getting promoted to big brother, so it was only right that he got a big kid room to match.

Don’t miss the last slide to see where we started… yep, that’s the before.

His reaction when he came home from school? “Whatt!! It’s GORGEOUS!!!” Safe to say we nailed it.

Go to my stories to see his reaction ❤️

This family chose my organization + design service, which means we didn’t just create systems, we brought the whole vision to life.

New bed, dresser, rug, nightstand, even a ceiling fan. Everything sourced from @target @wayfair @homegoods and @homesense_us

I love projects like this where we get to give our clients their own HGTV moment—just without the cameras and commercial breaks.

You are NOT ready for this BEFORE 🤯

This brownstone pantry had my client struggling.

It was deep, had no built-in shelving, and the two racks they had?

Right height, completely wrong depth.

Translation: stuff disappearing into the abyss. And for a family that cooks every single day (seriously, how amazing is that?!), this setup just wasn’t cutting it.

Meanwhile, I’m over here serving up air fryer chicken nuggets on repeat. I promise I can cook—I’m just patiently waiting for my kids to stop acting like buttered pasta is a gourmet meal.

But I DIGRESS.

Here’s what we did:

✔️ We turned one of their shelves sideways—boom, perfect corner fit.
✔️ Brought in a @target wire rack that actually made sense for the space.
✔️ And just like that, we doubled their storage without a single custom shelf.

This is what I LOVE about organizing—getting creative, making things actually work, and turning tricky spaces into ✨pantry magic✨.

What do you think of this transformation?! Tell me below! ⬇️

#NJMom #NYCMom #ProfessionalOrganizer #PantryGoals #KitchenOrganization #PantryMakeover #OrganizedHome

Did you know that over 60% of our clients in 2024 were either return clients or came from a personal recommendation?

That number blows my mind every time because it means people don’t just love our work—they trust us enough to tell their friends.

And honestly, that’s everything.

Yes, we’re great at organizing.

But our business is built on relationships.

Your home isn’t just another project to us—it’s where your family’s memories are made, where the highs and lows of parenting unfold, and where a little more calm can make all the difference.

So when this client told me on the first call that they already knew they wanted to work with us?

I just about pinched myself.

Today, we refreshed their play spaces and set up a toy rotation system that grows with their growing family. And did I take before pics?

Nope.

Sometimes we get so in the zone that it just doesn’t happen!

But enjoy these after shots (and don’t skip the slide of the cutest 🐶—easily one of the best perks of the job)!
