She was a total professional to work with, and went above and beyond what I even expected (as it is clear she truly cares and is passionate about her job).

Her artistic abilities are amazing, and I am so grateful she was a part of my experience. Thank you, Belinda!

We were consistently impressed with her beautiful designs and the level of customization and detail. We had multiple people compliment us on the stationery during the wedding weekend it really did add such a personal touch.

When I first made the decision to hire a professional organizer I reached out to the Organizer…read moreGuys. Steven wasn't able to take my job but referred me to Joy Perkins from Omnibus Organizing and I'm so glad he did! From our first interaction Joy was responsive and able to accommodate my hectic schedule. During our initial consultation I knew right away Joy was a person I wanted to work with. A former school teacher, Joy has the perfect mix of patience, cheerfulness and "let's get to it" attitude that put me at ease. If she has judgements, she keeps them to herself and makes the whole process feel fun. My project was a second bedroom that had turned into a bit of a junk closet and was no longer really usable on account of all the stuff I'd haphazardly thrown in there. Joy actively listened as I explained my work/life and hopes I had for my stuff and the room. Following the initial consultation she told me it would take a full day and that she'd bring two other helpers. By the end of that day I'd have my room back. I got that and a lot more. On the day of, my three organizing angels turned up with clear boxes, garbage bags and all the necessary supplies for serious organization. They set up a folding table in my living room and hauled everything out of the second bedroom. During this time I was not needed at all. That's one of the things I really loved about working with Joy: I could do my own work whilst she and her team set about to organizing and they'd simply call me in when they needed my input. I'd taken the day off thinking I would need to be much more of an active participant and since that wasn't the case, I had plenty of time to do laundry and take care of other household chores. The organizers finished the second bedroom faster than expected and moved on to organize my bathroom, pantry and bedroom closet. When there was still a little more time left they worked on a small part of the living room too. By the time they departed, I had a nearly empty second bedroom with a super organized closet finely tuned for my extensive travel and pernicious packing. Not to mention a better bathroom set up and a really good looking pantry that finally made sense. I also rediscovered many things that had been "hiding" in amongst my disorganization! It felt like Christmas at least three times that day. My household, as a result, is much more harmonious. Turns out, you get a lot more than organization when you hire a professional organizer as talented as Joy! I recommend Omnibus Organizing without reservation.

I first hired Joy and Omnibus about 6 years ago when I downsized and was overwhelmed by where to…read moreput everything. They did a remarkable job back then so when I needed a little fine tuning I didn't hesitate to call them back and they came this weekend. Joy and her team did an incredible job straightening out my closets. Everything is boxed and labeled and easy to find. They are efficient and easy to work with (also not judgmental). This will be the best money you have ever spent!

This stained glass studio is ideal! Look no further, friends. :)…read more TOYO glass cutters, Hakko soldering irons, Novacan black patina, all sizes of nitrile gloves, free glass sorted by color... everything is here for community use. It's kept so clean and well-organized. No need to purchase a ton of materials just to take one class! The value upheld here is mutual care. Studio hours work on the honor system. The vibe is positive and trusting so bring your sense of community care. There are large glass sheets for purchase. It's gorgeous and well-selected and from the same retailer that other studios use but for far more reasonable prices. I was more productive in the first few hours at this studio than I was in a few weeks at another. I love that's it's welcoming to artists and professionals and also to people of all backgrounds who are new to the art. Classes are open for sign-up and studio time is easily booked online, which is wonderful that you don't have to wait!
