She can take even the most overwhelming and cluttered room and transform it into a practically Pinterest-ready space - neat, tidy, organized, and truly functional. She seems to be completely undaunted by any mess, no matter how big! My Personal Experience (A Full Basement Transformation) I've used Molly's services extensively, and her work on my basement was a real game-changer. It went from being an absolute "madhouse" to clearly defined, highly usable zones: Sewing Room TV Room Shop Area Laundry Area Each space is now incredibly organized and functional, truly serving its intended purpose. Before Molly, my basement (and frankly, my whole house) was crammed full of: I had too much: Sewing and woodworking supplies Shop tools Inherited "stuff" from three relatives Too many household linens Just way too much general clutter! Molly's Special Qualities: Energizer Bunny Stamina: She just digs in, knows exactly where to start, and how to sort everything efficiently. Independent & Proactive: She needs very little guidance. As someone with a disability, I wasn't always able to be hands-on, and Molly took charge and got things done beautifully with minimal help from me. Amazing Personality: Beyond her organizing skills, she's a truly wonderful human being. Her positive, upbeat energy is infectious, and you'll honestly feel like you've found a new friend. Beyond Organizing (My Divorce Story) Because of Molly's incredibly organized mind and brilliant problem-solving skills, I even enlisted her help with the property settlement part of my divorce. She didn't just organize paperwork; she helped me: Think through complex facts and see the "big picture." Break down overwhelming issues into manageable components for property division. She even sat in on my divorce mediation to help me think on the fly about proposed options and counter-offers! This was absolutely invaluable. The Bottom Line You can't go wrong hiring Molly. She will cheerfully help you accomplish whatever organizing goal you have, big or small, and you'll likely gain a fantastic friend in the process! ensure (Quick note: I rarely write reviews, but Molly's skills are truly exceptional, and I wanted to do her justice. To ensure my experience came across clearly, I used Gemini AI to help me edit and refine this review. So no, I'm not a secret sales agent--just a very satisfied customer who's also learning to use AI for better writing!)

Molly Boren's help with organizing, decluttering and task management has completely transformed my…read morehouse, my business, and my life. If I could give SimplicityWorks a ten-star rating, I would! Molly is incredibly skilled in so many ways: making huge decluttering and paper-sorting projects feel easily do-able and quickly completed, helping me develop strategies for handling "backsliding" that fit my personality and available time, understanding my approach to tasks and my personality to help me develop a personalized task system that really works, evaporating the sense of dread that usually comes with organizing and decluttering, quickly learning the relevant categories in my work and my life to help with paper management, etc, etc. The result of my sessions with her? My house is free of clutter and piles of paper, and my mind is at ease knowing that important tasks aren't falling through the cracks. All with Molly's warmth, kindness, a wonderful "no judgment" style, and professionalism. P.S. - She travels to some of the Oakland County suburbs to see clients, as well as to the cities between Ann Arbor and Oakland County (e.g., Northville).

We've been lucky enough to have them clean our home for 4 or 5 years now. They come every other week while we're at work and we come home to a clean, dust free, organized, home.

To say I'm a repeat customer is an understatement. I love antiquing. I always mark occasions with…read moreantique shopping. I have bought from this very shop everything from jewelry, to tea cups, small furniture items, hats, gloves, purses, clothes... you name it. I'm heartbroken and crushed after my experience today. It's Eid. My brother is visiting from out of state. I dragged him and my husband with me to go antiquing. I was perusing in the back when the employee practically rushed towards us asking if we saw a necklace. My husband innocently told him "no, my wife is interested in a silver bracelet that was behind a case but didn't mention anything about a necklace." The employee scoffed and then accused us of lying and stealing a $399 necklace that another customer(who had left before we even came in) was looking at and he had placed in a basket! Not a display case like all valuables, but a basket! My brother was looking at vinyl records that were located in the vicinity of said basket. We told him he can check our pockets and my purse, he refused and kept accusing us. My husband even volunteered for us to be frisked. We told him he could call the police to clear the issue. He refused, kept yelling at us, kicked us out, and said he was closing for the day. It was soooo demeaning. We felt so disrespected. I wish we called the cops ourselves, asked to be frisked, just so that he would feel as small as he made us feel and would have been forced to apologize to us. Like I get it, people consign their belongings at ur store, and you were negligent enough to have a $399 necklace in an open basket instead of putting it in a locked display case, but while you can be pissed off and disappointed in your own carelessness, your customers are not your punching bag. So disappointing. Never ever stepping foot in there again.

if I could give 0 stars I would. I'm extremely disappointed with my recent experience at this…read moreantique shop, especially considering we've been repeat customers and have done business here many times before without any issues. During our last visit, an employee accused us of stealing a necklace that had gone missing. The situation was made even more frustrating by the fact that the necklace--allegedly worth $399--had been left out in an open basket, rather than secured in a display case like items of that value usually are. What made this even more upsetting was how far we went to cooperate. We offered to have our belongings checked, even offered to be frisked, and told the employee to call the police if needed so everything could be handled properly and transparently. Despite all of this, the employee continued to accuse us without any evidence or willingness to resolve the situation professionally. Being treated like criminals after years of supporting this business was both embarrassing and frustrating. There was no attempt to de-escalate the situation or extend even basic respect to loyal customers. This experience has completely changed our perception of this shop. I would strongly caution others--especially repeat customers--that if something goes missing, you may be unfairly accused rather than treated with fairness and professionalism.
