Donation Destinations
Have you recently decluttered or wanted to venture on a home organizing project? An important step, and one of the most rewarding, is donating your items you no longer want, need or use. One of my favorite perks as an organizer is getting to know the local donation centers. Donating items to give them a second life to someone who needs it now is essential to our communities. If you have a couple bags of goods (or a few, or a few dozen..) here are a few places and people we’d love for you to get to know.
Get Your Office and Business Organized
One of our all-time favorite projects was working at Wistia, a video marketing software company in Cambridge, Massachusetts. When we were done organizing their office, they created an awesome video (no surprise) of their experience working with us which can be seen here. Our favorite part of the video was this quote about how organizing the office was “literally the best thing that happened to me in my entire life.” Can you imagine having someone say that about something you’ve done!? Yeah, we blushed too. You’re probably wondering what does it mean for The Little Details to organize within a company. Well, let us break it down for you and tell you why right now during this pandemic is the PERFECT time to get your office organized (spoiler alert, it’s because they’re empty!)!
