DECLUTTERING

Is your home filled with toys, clothes, decor, books, mail-- most of which has gone unused for weeks, months or years? Do you want to learn the best tips & tricks for decluttering your home? How do you even cope with the emotions of getting rid of things, when each item has its own memories tied to it?

Maintaining an organized life can seem daunting, but Silvia offers individualized, DIY solutions tailored to different learning-styles in this free presentation.

This talk comes just in time for the holiday season, when most of us will inevitably receive gifts that take up more space in the home. Declutter before your guests arrive, and make room for new items!

Silvia is also offering a free activity-- she's accepting photo submissions of your home before the event, and she'll choose a few photos to provide personalized organization advice at the end of the seminar. You can submit 1-3 photos (i.e. kitchen, closet, family room) by sending to sam@widowcare.org.

Schedule: ~6:00 pm: Lite fare & social time ~6:15pm: Introduction to Silvia ~6:20pm: The presentation begins ~7:20pm: Q&A ~7:40pm: Activity

PAPER ORGANIZATION

Are you not sure what papers are important to keep, and which papers you can trash? Sometimes we let the mail pile up, because we think "what if we need these bills and bank statements for taxes?" In reality, most papers just add to the clutter. Find out which statements & files you need to keep, and best practices for organizing them in your home for easy, clutter-free access.

Attend this free seminar to learn more about home organization, and come prepared with questions for the Q&A portion.

MEET SILVIA (bio):

Becoming a Professional Organizer was a Natural Choice!

The seed to become an organizer was planted while I was settling my parents’ estate. My parents were children of the Depression. While they were not disorganized, they did have stuff — and lots of it. It took me a year to sort, organize, dispose and donate their possessions. I resolved then that I did not want to burden my kids with all my stuff.

Throughout my life I have used my organizing skills at work and at home. As my children were preparing to leave the nest, it didn’t take me long to figure out that becoming a professional organizer would be my next career. Thus, my third child, Your Life Simplified, LLC, was born in September 2010!

Like everyone, I have been confronted with life’s challenges. I understand how they affect our daily life. Let My Organizing Skills Help You Reclaim Your Life! Attend this free Widow Care seminars to learn more about DIY home organizing tips & tricks of the trade!
