Found some glass jar containers with metal lids on them, but the glass is much heavier than I was hoping for. Still on the hunt for a tin container with a see-through lid and secure clasp.

Text convo with a friend this evening:…read more Me: Unrelated to anything I just spent 2 hours at the Container Store and have never been happier. Friend: Wherever we can find peace! Ahh, peace. I don't know the meaning of the word. Though I'm trying! As a maximalist gal with ADHD in a small house I'm forever in search of an organizational and functional storage plan I can stick with. Through much introspection and many self help books I recently realized my issue is "if I can't see it, it doesn't exist." Which means I'm forever buying cans of black beans when what I really need is great northern and constantly getting takeout because "there's nothing in this house to eat." So, with this new clarity in hand, I've taken to overhauling my kitchen in the new year. And the Container Store has been clutch in providing solutions to my storage issues. A pantry that requires a step ladder to reach? How about a pull down spice rack? Deep drawers without dividers? How about stacking bins so I can use the vertical space, too? Expired baking ingredients from the last time I tried to reorganize but didn't realize until it was too late that the jars I put everything in don't stack effectively, leaving a teetering mess I've been afraid to disturb? How about a baking pantry storage set with equal sized widths for easy stacking? (And built in brown sugar softeners and powdered sugar sifters, too! Be still my heart!). Weird corner cabinets that are deep caves of awkward, oft unused space? Why not some pull out shelving storage? And so much more! Jar openers! Lemon keepers! Fancy pens! NOTEBOOKS AND PLANNERS! Omg. I haven't even begun to talk about the craft storage. What's not to love??? Well, ok. I guess the prices. Which can be high. But they carry many solutions I can't find anywhere else so sometimes I have to bite the bullet and pony up. I do my best to try and stick to their in-house products to save a bit of scratch tho. And becoming a rewards member will net you some solid coupons now and again. In fact, today I happened to have a 25% off coupon so I stocked up on those deep drawer organizers. It took me a while to find the right combo/configurations for our unusually sized cabinetry but I think I figured it out thanks to the countertop they have with grids to help you easily measure. Very handy. Staff here is lovely and ever so helpful. It's never a cheap visit here but it's always a beneficial one. And hey, thanks to my new pantry risers and lists of items we have taped to the inside door (another new trick!) I now know we have 7 cans of black beans, 4 of which are low sodium, and the last time I went to the grocery I got the right beans at last.

While that may have been true, I knew I was paying someone to come over and provide me with solutions to effectively and efficiently organize my unpacked world. We spent about 3, 4 hour sessions unpacking, organizing and by the time we came to the final day, Jade had a good sense of how I functioned. Beyond all of this, Jade truly made me feel comfortable. I've always considered my hoarding tendencies, but never really addressed them. In all honesty, opening up in that way can be very intimate and vulnerable. Jade challenged me to consider the utility of some items and the memory of others - supporting me through each decision. I wish I had before and after photos, because dang! It makes my house so much more comfortable to be in - everything has a place.

Where the tie tracks are from driving in and out, the floor has turned dark black. I have had to have the floor repaired twice for cracks and the coating was coming off in spots. They are very good about coming and doing repairs, but now my floor look worse! It has two strips across the garage floor that looks new and the other part of the garage is faded. They also tried to fix a spot, but made a hole 2"X4" and just left it, instead of filling it in. I am very disappointed in this floor. It was not worth the money I paid for it $$$$.

She helped me to sort through decades of possessions, furnishings, clothing and keepsakes, and assisted me in deciding what to keep, what to donate, and what to toss. She even managed to sell some items. She helped me find a mover (I live out of state) and after I had to return home, she kept packing and hauling and transporting. She was completely trustworthy, and provided documentation of everything she did. Hiring this company was the best decision I've made in a long time. Without Denise's help, this project would have taken me years. If you're thinking about hiring this company, just do it! You won't be sorry.

She was quick and professional, but also patient and kind, which is what I needed. I have lupus and anxiety so it took a lot for me to let a stranger in my home and to admit I needed the help, and Monika immediately made me feel comfortable with her. She checked in with me about my mental state regularly, and made sure I was a part of the whole decision making process. She also intuitively knew when I needed encouragement to let go of the clutter I didn't need. She helped me to not feel paralyzed by the whole process. She wasn't afraid to roll up her sleeves and do the work either. I was welcome to help if I felt up to it but was not required to as part of the process, which was what I needed as I knew I wouldn't always feel up to the task physically. Most importantly she made it easy to find everything and gave me a system that was maintainable for me, which I am so grateful to her for.
