I have ADHD and struggle to keep my bedroom and bathroom tidy and clean. My room has been so messy that I'm embarrassed to have friends over. After talking to many professional organizers who weren't the right fit, I booked a 4-hour session with Christel and we were able to accomplish so much. Christel stands out because she's a masterful organizer but also has an eye for interior design and décor, so she helped me to visualize what my space could look like long-term. Even though I could only book a single 4-hour session due to financial constraints, Christel made sure that I got the most bang for my buck in those 4 hours. We purged TONS of unwanted stuff and she encouraged me to make tough choices to let go of things. Then she took the lead on reorganizing everything I own in a much more logical way, using containers and furniture I already have, and labelling everything so I could find it easily. We moved furniture around, creating a more aesthetic layout in my room. She also helped me sweep the floors and wipe down surfaces so that my space could look nice. She took all the trash and donations with her so that I didn't have to worry about it. Before leaving, she gave me tips on where to focus next, what kind of furniture to invest in, and where to put it in my room. She is very fast, efficient, and nonjudgemental and has lots of practical knowledge to share. She kept me laser-focused through the process, listened to my concerns, and and gave me small projects that I could easily accomplish. Now I'm actually motivated to get up and get ready in the morning because I know where everything is and don't have to spend time frantically looking for random things. I'm also motivated to keep my space clean because it actually looks nice. Thank you sooooo much Christel!!! read more

I retained Space to Love to help me organize aspects of my home. Christel completely reorganized and decluttered my walk-in closet. I now have room for all my clothes and shoes! Everything is organized and easy to find which makes getting ready a lot easier. I have a home office that had boxes of books, files and other items that I simply could not figure out how to organize. In a day, Christel rearranged the furniture books and files, and made the office comfortable and inviting so that I can actually meet with clients and work there instead of at my kitchen table. Finally, Christel organized my spice rack! A nice addition to all she did for me. I highly recommend Space to Love! They are amazing! read more

Christel came and worked on decluttering my garage with me. I was really impressed when she showed up with her organization cart, filled with tape, scissors, boxes and other tools. She put on her gloves and dug in. Even when I got overwhelmed and terrified and tried to beg off doing it, she remained firm about us staying on task. I was struck by how organized she was in the face of chaos and piles. We got so much done in under 3 hours. She carried off everything I wanted to donate and got that out of the way for me. My garage is now a place of productivity. read more

After being completely overwhelmed by moving to a new home, Cristel arrived and made the whole experience easy, comfortable and more efficient than I ever expected. Besides packing me, unpacking, putting everything away in amazing order, she literally "designed" bookcases, shelves and even helped place furniture. My closet is a work of art, my plants have all been placed beautifully and I woke up this morning feeling like a princess in my lovely new home. She goes far beyond the regular organization skills that are the usual expectation. I'm so grateful to have found her!! What a treasure!!! read more

Christel did an awesome job organizing my kitchen and providing guidance on how to keep it organized going forward. All Covid safety protocols were followed during her sessions which was very important. I plan on working with her again on other areas of the house. I highly recommend her services!! read more

I am so excited to be working with Christel. She has already made my extension on my home an enjoyable experience. Her ideas are creative and have already added much appreciated value to this huge project. I was really amazed at how she analyzed a floor plan and improved it in moments during our initial consultation. I really can't imagine anyone who couldn't benefit from a bigger closet. I look forward to working with her over the next couple of months on this endeavor. read more

Christel is wonderful. I've had her come by twice for some closet organization. She hung some curtains over my mirrored closets and had great suggestions for how it should look. She works fast, is organized, efficient, friendly, and easy to communicate with. She also took what I thought was my organized closet and helped me streamline my boxes of Xmas decorations and travel stuff - in matching cute bins, and measured everything for me, went to the Container Store for me, and helped me set everything up. This is the kind of thing left to my own devices never works out. I HIGHLY recommend Christel and for your other handy needs - hanging up, banging things in the wall, all of that - YES. And there's something I like about having a woman come over to help rather than some strange dude! Jen read more

Space to Love changed my life. As newlyweds, my wife and I moved into our new house, bringing our individual physical baggage and differing decorative aesthetics which tended to clash and burn us out. After two years of unsuccessful storage solutions and a prevailing design theme we were at an impasse on how to move forward together under one unifying, uncluttered vision. It wasn't a home where we were proud to host guests. It wasn't a place we could relax from the compounded stress of the LA grind. It was the eyesore we frumped down into to survive the night. STL's first consultation was a breath of enthusiasm-filled fresh air, that touched just our living room with informed and passionate brush strokes that made my wife and I step back in delight and anticipation of the possibilities for the rest of our house. In a short time Space To Love's guidance gave us enough fun tools that quickly made our house into our home. Affordable, spiritual, intuitive, flexible, passionate, and fast- Space To Love is the feng shui-ing, decluttering, personal space re-designing business to count on. read more

I can't recommend Christel enough! This warm, funny person is inspirational and SO helpful! She helped my fiance and I during our moving process, both downsizing our clutter before the move, and helping organize our new home in a way that was both practical and allowed our creative energies to flow. Thank you for making our house a home! Amazing service! Looking forward to re-hiring as our lives continue to change! read more

Major life upgrade! I moved from a 4-bedroom house in the Valley to a small loft in Downtown LA. My new place felt like it was bursting at the seams and felt unlivable. I found A Space to Love on Yelp and called Christel. She was fast in her responses and we quickly came up with a plan to help me. Over the span of 5 visits in a few months we went through every drawer, cabinet, container, and square inch of my place. We would evaluate it and come up with a plan for it. She is a genius on making things work. You might have several things serving the same purpose, you might find a new way of living with some of your stuff, she had an endless supply of ideas. I felt so much better getting rid of things when I knew it was right and "in plan". I had areas that were so bad I was embarrassed but she had seen it all before and was on it. She was tireless and never wasted a minute of time. I've attached some pictures of some of our hauls from my little place as we made trips for donations or trash. She makes the donations and sends you a receipt for taxes. In the end my place feels organized and I feel like I got a major upgrade in life and the way I'm living it. I can't recommend A Space to Love more. Thank you Christel! read more

See all

I have used Christel for the last 2 years to completely organize each room in my house we've gone through every nook and cranny and donated, salvaged , redecorated or thrown out every item and each time we do this I feel lighter and more focused in my day to day life. having an organized home has really helped me maintain balance between work and my personal life..now that everything is in its place it opens up alot of time I didnt realize I was missing plowing through my "stuff" each day.. Christel makes the entire job fun and she couldnt be more encouraging , thoughtful as well as a great teacher! thumbs way up on her and her services.. did I mention she takes out all the trash , donates your items for you as well as shops for anything you might need in your new organized space?.. better than a personal assistant! read more

Christel and Space To Love are amazing! She comes in with her magic, finds creative and efficient ways to organize everything, and she even hauls away all of the stuff that you decide to donate! I love her ability to come into a room, take a look around, open drawers, then magically figure out where everything should go. She'll come back on the next trip with beautiful drawer organizers and fun ways to store objects (like mason jars with little chalk-board stickers on them!) and start putting everything in its place. We stay pretty busy, and having an organized house really helps us out! Once everything has its place, it is easy to do a quick pick-up and de-clutter then go on your merry way! I highly recommend Christel and her team at Space To Love! read more

Crystal is a visionary artist.  She walked into our living room and saw instantly what it ended up being -- like a painter with a canvas. Within half-an-hour, she re-positioned our furniture to change the whole feel and make it much more livable, comfortable and cozy.  Creating places to store everything made a huge difference because now we have no clutter at all. In addition, she undercharges for her work and we love that in her mindset part of her reward comes from the upliftment her work brings to others. She definitely created our Space To Love! Katherine H. read more

Love Christel! She's amazing!!!!! Truly. She's helped us so much with organizing and making everything easy to find. I am still working with her, and plan to in the future. Do yourself a favor and hire her! read more

Christel of Space to Love is a revelation! She's so professional, easy to work with and gets the job done. Not only has she helped me clear clutter, re-organize space and make my home more beautiful, she has such a positive and supportive attitude and presence that makes you feel so comfortable. Some of the work we had to do was uncomfortable to let go of and she was so understanding and patient during that process. It helped make the difficult task much easier and allowed me to let go of some really old things I didn't need anymore. One of the projects we did was re-organizing my closet. Wow! What a huge difference that made in my daily life. The ease I have finding things saves me so much time, and I love the way it looks. I could go on and on about her services because she is that good. If you're looking for an organizer who gets the job done and is great to work with, look no further, Christel of Space to Love is your top choice. read more

I enlisted Christel's help after downsizing from a 3-bedroom house in Culver City to a 1,000-square-foot vintage apartment in Wilshire Vista. My goal was to make the apartment so cute and organized, I wouldn't even miss the house. Christel helped me achieve that goal in record time. In just 3 days of working together, Christel not only helped me clear out several carloads worth of unneeded stuff, but she also helped me rearrange my furniture so it looked great in the new place. She adeptly hung draperies (and rods) and blinds, and helped me get all my artwork onto the walls. Just having her there forced me let things go and get my s**t together. She would be working in one part of the apartment, and I would tackle something else and proudly show her what I'd accomplished. I had never hired a professional organizer before, and never really thought I would. It's now a year later, and I LOVE my apartment. I know that without Christel's help, half my artwork would still probably be stashed in the closet, and I would have suffered a meltdown from hanging the blinds by myself. This was an investment in home happiness, and definitely money well-spent. read more

Very Helpful & Hopeful Christel helped me re-organize an office closet in 4 hours and we worked together seamlessly and with easy rapport. She gave me clever ideas that were original and expedient for getting organized. Her work is solid. Her prices are fair. Her demeanor is warm. Overall excellent experience. read more

Hiring Christel was a huge help to getting organized in our new house. We hired her as a design consultant to get ideas for how to make the best use of our space and we're very happy we did. Her recommendations were thoughtful and practical and she turned them around to us quickly. Her ideas and designs were packaged in an easy to use and professional manner that made them easy to refer to frequently as we moved forward with decorating and unpacking. We felt her services were a good value for the money. Finally (but perhaps most importantly) Christel is a kind and ethical person that we felt comfortable inviting into our home. read more

My hat's off to Christel who is a genius when it comes to organizing. I've run over 100 companies and have never seen anybody who is as good at what she does is she is. She just reorganized our mass of books that were falling out of our bookshelves and stacked on the floor. Now they are not only neatly organized by category but now consist of only the ones that we really value. read more

Highly Recommend! Christel is not only driven & organized (she has the energy to get through the toughest tasks), she is so easy to get along with and very professional. We have a new baby and had combined two households and really needed her help to get things together. Really, I can't say enough good things about her. She met & exceeded our expectations. She worked with our schedules and was organized in her approach. If we could have imagined our dream situation in working with an organizer, we definitely got it with Christel. I say talk to her & just feel out her vibe & how she operates... I bet you will find yourself booking her & you will be glad you did! read more

Absolutely loved working with Christel! I knew when I bought my house the living room could be a great space but needed help. Christel was able to transform the space. I already had an idea of the color scheme but didn't know how to make it come together. Christel sat down with me listened to my ideas and came up with a plan of attack. The finished product was better than I could imagine. She helped me find budget friendly items when I needed to, was always on time and really helped guide me through the entire redesign. Even after all these months with the project being completed I still love every inch of the living room and my friends can't even believe it's the same space. When I first met Christel I told her I wanted to love my living room, to walk into my home and have that feeling of walking into a beautiful space. She accomplished that to a tee! I can't wait to work with her again to organize the other rooms in my house and to have her help me redesign my master bedroom. She was worth every penny. read more

We had a dilapidated garage that was in such bad shape we couldn't close the door. Everything inside was dirty and disorganized. My husband has many, many tools, automotive items, and just tons of stuff. We finally tore down the old garage and built a beautiful new one with cabinets, shelves, etc. It was completed months ago but my husband just couldn't get it together to go through all the stuff that had been stored in a shed. He didn't even remember so much of what was in there. I did some research and after being in touch with 3 companies, decided to hire Space to Love. Christel called me personally, sent emails, was really responsive and I had a really good feeling. This was a birthday, anniversary, holiday gift to my husband, although also a gift to myself to finally get things organzied. Today, Christel and Tim came and attacked this very messy job. Christel was able to understand how to best approach my husband to help him decide what to keep. Then they organized everything, labeled boxes, and most importantly got my husband to throw away so much stuff. I couldn't have gotten him to do it! Christel got the job done in 4 hours which was amazing considering the amount of stuff. Now my husband may have her come back to help him go through all the tools, get them organized, and maybe get him to get rid of more things he probaby doesn't need. Christel even took away some things to donate so we didn't have to worry about it. We give Christel & Space to Love 5 stars. read more

I live in a very small apartment with my husband and 2 little ones and I had no idea how to make sense of my place with all of us in it. Christal started in my living area which was a total disaster. We couldn't afford to buy new stuff so she worked with what was in front of her. In a matter of 45 minutes she turned my living/dining area into a living room, dining room and made a whole new area available to be a play room. It was pure genius. After that, i knew I needed her to help me with every room in the house. You guys, there's a storage room next to my kitchen. And that's exactly what it was there for - to store all our junk. Well, she turned it into the most precious nursery and now that's my favorite room in the apartment. She's since helped me organize my bathroom, kitchen, hall closet & pre-schoolers room. Every time she comes over I learn how to take care of my things, keep things organized and these rooms are all so easy to keep up because everything now has a place. Of course Im saving my room for last. I'm working on getting new furniture and I know after working together to purge and organize, Christal is going to get in her zone and make it fabulous like she has done with the rest of the house. I recommend her to everyone. I am planning on hanging in there in this small space for as long as I can and Christal has made that all possible. She truly has made it a Space to Love! read more

Where have you been all my life?! Christel has magical abilities to transform piles of piles of chaos into useful efficient systems for you to be able to FIND things when you need them fast. She's professional and has so much positive energy that you need when dealing with the clutter you don't usually want to deal with. She's transformed my daughter's closet and desk space and transformed my piles and piles of heavy books in my living room space. If it weren't for her, the piles would have probably stayed there for another 2 or 3 years... She was able to transform it all within a matter of hours. She has a knack for making a space feel good. I love it when she asks me at the end, "How does it feel?" My response to her was "It feels amazing!" I am so grateful to her. Getting clutter free, re-focuses my mind and my energy to become more productive. I will be recommending her to everyone I know! read more

Where do i start?! Okay i am a mother of 4 boys currently pregnant. Our home was feeling a little bit out of control (okay ALOT out of control). I called Christel after some very unpleasant attempts of hiring an organizer. The first time she came over i felt such a incredible difference in the shed that we began with. She is so efficient, so helpful, makes great suggestions on keeping stuff or not. She has a background in Feng Shui and really understands the energy of items and what they do to people. She also knows how to make any space feel clear, both energetically and also visually. We slowly moved room to room and have done the whole house. I always feel so much better when she comes, that i pretty much have her coming on a weekly basis. Decluttering (especially in a house hold as big as ours) requires constant purging and reorganizing. Christel is very pleasant to be around but most importantly so helpful. She leaves everything perfect when she leaves. She almost makes it so you don't even have to think about it. You chose what to get rid of and she is really good at the rest. She still works with you stylistically to make sure you are both on the same page of what you need esthetically and also what works for you personally. i believe this is really important because something that works in our home may not work in someone else's home. Another positive, is not only is she great at helping you purge, sort, de clutter, organize. etc. She is also good at just about anything that requires perfection. She also has a design background. She was able to help draw out and design a whole new closet for me. Amongst other stuff. She is really good with anything design related. Also can do any kind of hanging, building, installation. i mean its seriously amazing! i am clueless when it comes to these things so i am always so impressed with what she has pulled off. i always wonder what single mom's do when it comes to all of these "little" things. everything these days need to be built, put together, installed etc. Sometimes husbands/partners are to busy to be able to do all this stuff. Well... she is the person to go to for just about anything. i could go on and on... do yourself a favor a hire Christel if you are ready to clear space, both emotionally and physically and make your life and space better!! its life changing. read more

Space to Love's Christel Ferguson is a miracle worker. With a few flourishes and thoughtful suggestions, our new place looks like a home. Christel has impeccable taste - weaving artistry and practical design into everything she does. If you need a re-design or simply need to find extra space, Christel will work with you to find a solution you can be proud of. I give her my highest recommendation. read more

Space to love has enhanced my world in so many ways! I have always imagined being organized but finding the time and courage to tackle the piles in my life never seem to happen. I found Christel, Space To Love,through a client and I knew I had to give it a try. I have never been happier ! Christel came in and got my work space turned around into a beautiful productive place to work in a matter of hours!she is very professional and works so diligently I definitely got my money's worth and then some! A place that I was embarrassed for anyone to see. A place that I spent much of my time, with clutter making it so inefficient. Now transformed! She used things I already had, keeping the costs down. She put realistic systems in place so I continue to keep it tidy, and easy to work. The items that I did discard I got a tax deduction ! Not only do I work better and feel better in my office I am proud to have people come on my beautifully efficient workplace. truly is a Space I love now!!! Later we transformed my dreaded closet ! We did that painlessly! Again the new system in place and I am no longer stressed and overwhelmed!! Making my daily life easier. I highly recommend Christel! read more

What wonderful experience. Great organizer, very creative and efficient. A joy to watch Christel do her magic for my space. I would hire her again (and again). Thank you Christel. read more
